Digital blood pressure monitor SC 6360

for measurements on the upper arm

Operating instructions

Introduction

Thank you very much for your decision to buy the SC 6360 blood pressure monitor. It is most easily operated, as the settings that were still necessary with older models have all been taken care of by the electronic programming (Fuzzy logic). Just press the relevant button and the measurement can start. But this instrument has much more uses. In order to utilize all its options, please read these instructions carefully before you use the instrument for the first time and keep them in a safe place for future reference.

Special features of the SC 6360 blood pressure monitor

The SC 6360 has a special logic for recognizing the
required pumping pressure (Fuzzy logic). If the pumping pressure set by the manufacturer is insufficient, the manometer will recognize it and increase the pressure by further pumping.
The device has 60 memory locations. The date and time
are displayed and stored together with every blood pressure value. To recall the memory, please press “MEM Button” under power-off mode first. Then, the average measurement result will be shown on the LCD first.
You may set 3 different times for the alarm and
measurements.
The instrument switches automatically back into its clock
function 3 min after the blood pressure has been measured.
