Troubleshooting
A
“LOW” INDICATION
“Low” indication displays when pressurization is not enough. It is recommended to pressurize 30–40 mmHg higher than expected systolic.
If you see the LOW sign, keep pumping to higher number. Make sure the tubes are
connected properly using the site window.
B
DIFFICULT PRESSURIZATION
Elemano may have a clogged air lter in ination bulb or there may be deterioration in the bulb. In case of a clogged air lter, it needs to be cleaned (refer to the Instructions Manual, page E-18). If the ination bulb has deteriorated, replace it with a new bulb.
