IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
When using electrical products, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, including
the following:
Warnings
- Please keep the unit out of reach of infants,
children or pets, since inhalation or swallowing
of small parts can be dangerous or even fatal.
- The device is not suitable for measuring the
blood pressure of children.
- No modifications of this equipment are allowed.
This may result in increased emissions or
decreased immunity of the device.
- This device is intended for non-invasive
measuring and monitoring of arterial blood
pressure. It is not intended for use on
extremities other than the wrist or for functions
other than obtaining a blood pressure
measurement.
- Do not use the blood pressure monitor during
charging as it can cause injury.
- Do not dispose of built-in batteries in fire.
Battery may explode or leak.
- Do not use while bathing and within 20 minutes
after taking a bath.
- The device is not suitable for persons who have
electrical implants.
- Do not reach for a corded device that has fallen
into water. Unplug immediately.
- A device should never be left unattended when
plugged in.
- The batteries used in this device may present a
fire or chemical burn hazard if mistreated. Do
not disassemble, heat above 100°C (212°F) or
incinerate.
- Do not use an extension cord with this device.
- Do not use this blood pressure monitor on any
arm where intravascular access or therapy
(such as an intravenous drip or a blood
transfusion), or an arterio-venous shunt (A-V
shunt) is present. The temporary interference to
blood flow by the blood pressure measurement
could result in injury.
- If you had a mastectomy (breast amputation)
do not use this blood pressure monitor on the
arm on the side of the mastectomy. The
inflating cuff can lead to pain, trauma and
further injury in the arm on the side of the
mastectomy.
- Consult your physician if you suffer from

measurement, such as pain in the arm or other
complaints, press the 'on' button to release the
air immediately from the cuff. Loosen the cuff
and remove it from your wrist.
to remain fully inflated during measurement,
open the cuff immediately. Prolonged high
pressure (cuff pressure >300 mmHg or constant
pressure >15 mmHg for more than 3 minutes)
applied to the arm, may lead to bruises
(ecchymosis).
could cause disturbances in blood circulation
and injuries.
particularly for children and infants due to
cables.
- This device is not intended for use outside a
home environment.
- Never use any accessories or parts from other
manufacturers or that Philips does not
specifically recommend. Using such accessories
or parts could cause a hazardous situation for
the user or damage to the device.
Caution
- Only use this device for its intended purpose as
described in this user manual.
- Always check the device and cuff before you
use it. Do not use the device or cuff if one of
them is damaged, as this may cause injury.
- The effectiveness of this blood pressure
monitor has not been established in pregnant
(including pre-eclamptic) women.
- Common arrhythmias (such as atrial or
ventricular premature beats or atrial fibrillation)
and peripheral artery disease / arteriosclerosis
can affect the performance (accuracy) of this
blood pressure monitor. Please consult your
physician how to best use this blood pressure
monitor if you suffer from any of these
conditions.
- Do not confuse self-monitoring with selfdiagnosis. This device allows you to monitor
your blood pressure. Do not begin or end
medical treatment based on the measurement
results. Always consult your physician for
treatment advice.
- Do not take any therapeutic measures on the
basis of a self-measurement. Never change
prescribed medication without consulting your
physician. Consult your physician if you have
any questions about your blood pressure.
- If you are taking medication, consult your
physician to determine the most appropriate
time to measure your blood pressure.
- This device is not intended for use on
extremities other than the wrist or for functions
other than obtaining a blood pressure
measurement.
- If the cuff pressure exceeds 300mmHg, the unit
will deflate automatically. If the cuff does not
deflate when pressures exceeds 300mmHg,
detach the cuff from the wrist and press the 'on'
button to stop inflation.
- Do not attach the cuff on the same arm on
which other monitoring medical electrical
equipment is attached simultaneously, because
this could cause temporary loss of function of
those simultaneously-used monitoring medical
electrical equipment.
- Never attach the cuff on injured skin, an injured
arm or an arm under medical treatment as this
can cause further injury.
- Do not use the device in case of existing
polyester or nylon material allergies.
- This device is not suitable for continuous
monitoring during medical emergencies or
operations.
- This device cannot be used with HF (High
Frequency) surgical equipment at the same
time.
- Only use the micro USB cable supplied to
charge the device.
- Avoid charging your blood pressure monitor in
extremely high or low temperatures (see
'Specifications').
- After charging, remove the micro USB plug from
the device and remove the USB plug from USB
portal.
- Do not attempt to replace your blood pressure
monitors battery. It is built-in and not
changeable.
- Keep the device away from fire and heat
sources, as the battery can overheat, causing
fire or bursting. The battery could explode,
causing injury or death.
- The equipment is not AP/APG equipment and
is not suitable for use in the presence of a
flammable anesthetic mixture with air, with
oxygen or nitrous oxide.
- To avoid measurement errors, do not use the
device near strong electromagnetic fields,
radiated interference signal or electrical fast
transient/burst signal. For example magnets,
radio transmitters, microwave ovens.
- Use this device under the right environmental
conditions as indicated in this user manual. If
not, this could affect the performance, lifetime
of the device and measurement results.
- This device is not washable. Never immerse the
device in water and do not rinse it under the

Using the blood pressure monitor
This tubeless device uses the oscillometric method
to measure blood pressure and heart rate.
Before every measurement, the unit establishes a
“zero point” equivalent to the atmospheric
pressure. Then it starts inflating the cuff. During the
measurement, the device detects the pressure
