Please read these instructions for use carefully and keep
them for later use, be sure to make them accessible to other

1. Getting to know your device
The upper arm blood pressure monitor is used to carry out
non-invasive measurement and monitoring of the arterial
blood pressure values in adults.
This allows you to quickly and easily measure your blood
pressure, save the measured values and display the development and average values of the measured values taken.
You are also warned of possible existing cardiac arrhythmia.
The recorded values are classified according to the WHO
guidelines and evaluated graphically.
Store these instructions for use for future reference and
make them accessible to other users.

Notes on use
•
In order to ensure comparable values, always measure
your blood pressure at the same time of day.
•
Before every measurement, relax for about five minutes.
•
If you want to perform several measurements on the same
person, wait five minutes between each measurement.
•
Do not take a measurement within 30 minutes of eating,
drinking, smoking or exercising.
•
Repeat the measurement if you are unsure of the measured value.
•
The measured values taken by you are for your information only – they are no substitute for a medical examination. Discuss the measured values with your doctor and
never base any medical decisions on them (e.g. medicines and their administration).
•
Do not use the blood pressure monitor on newborns or
patients with pre-eclampsia. We recommend consulting
a doctor before using the blood pressure monitor during
pregnancy.
•
Cardiovascular diseases may lead to incorrect measurements or have
a detrimental effect on measurement accuracy. The same also applies to very low blood pressure,
diabetes, circulatory disorders and arrhythmias as well as
chills or shaking.

• The blood pressure monitor must not be used in connection with a high-frequency surgical unit.
•
Only use the device on people who have the specified
upper arm measurement for the device.
•
Please note that when inflating, the functions of the limb
in question may be impaired.
•
During the blood pressure measurement, the blood circulation must not be stopped for an unnecessarily long time.
If the device malfunctions remove the cuff from the arm.
•
Avoid any mechanical restriction, compression or bending
of the cuff line.
•
Do not allow sustained pressure in the cuff or frequent
measurements. The resulting restriction of the blood flow
may cause injury.
•
Make sure that the cuff is not placed on an arm in which
the arteries or veins are undergoing medical treatment,
e.g. intravascular access or intravascular or therapy, or an
arteriovenous (AV) shunt.
•
Do not use the cuff on people who have undergone a
mastectomy.
•
Do not place the cuff over wounds as this may cause further injury.
•
The blood pressure monitor can only be operated with
batteries.
•
To conserve the batteries, the blood pressure monitor
switches off automatically if no buttons are pressed for
one minute.
•
The device is only intended for the purpose described in
these instructions for use. The manufacturer is not liable
for damage resulting from improper or careless use.
Instructions for storage and maintenance
•
The blood pressure monitor is made from precision and
electronic components. The accuracy of the measured
values and service life of the device depend on its careful
handling:
– Pro
tect the device from impacts, humidity, dirt, marked
temperature fluctuations and direct sunlight.
– Do not
drop the device.
– Do
not use the device in the vicinity of strong electromagnetic fields and keep it away from radio systems or
mobile telephones.
– Only
use the cuff included with the delivery or original
replacement parts. Otherwise incorrect measured values
will be recorded.
•
Do not press the buttons before the cuff is placed on the
arm.
•
We recommend that the batteries be removed if the device will not be used for a prolonged period of time.

Notes on batteries
•
Swallowing batteries can be extremely dangerous. Keep
the batteries and products out of the reach of small
children. If a battery is swallowed, seek medical attention
immediately.
•
Batteries must not be recharged, taken apart, thrown into
an open fire or short circuited.
•
If the batteries are empty or you do not intend to use the
device for longer periods, remove the batteries from the
device. This prevents damage which could occur due to
leakage. Always replace all batteries at the same time.
•
Do not use different types of batteries, different brands or
batteries with different capacities.
For preference, use alkaline batteries.
Instructions for repairs and disposal
•
Batteries do not belong in household waste. Please dis-
pose of empty batteries at the collection points intended
for this purpose.
•
Do not open the device. Failure to comply will result in
voiding of the warranty.
•
Do not repair or adjust the device yourself. Proper opera-
tion can no longer be guaranteed in this case.
•
Repairs must only be carried out by Customer Services
or authorised suppliers. Before making a claim, please
check the batteries first and replace them if necessary.
•
Please dispose of the device in accordance with
EC Directive – WEEE (Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment).
If you have any questions, please contact the local
authorities responsible for waste disposal.
