Important safety
notes
TM
Failure to observe the following
warnings may result in death or serious injuries.
Consult your physician or pharmacist before starting
to measure your blood pressure.
Read and understand all instructions and warnings
before using this device.
Like any oscillometric blood pressure measurement
devices, certain medical conditions can affect the
measurement accuracy, among others:
– disorder of the cardiac rhythm
– very low blood pressure
– patients in shock
– patients with very low blood perfusion
– diabetes
14 US-EN
870_silv_Blutdruckmessgeraet_Content_US.indd 14 04.07.19 09:1
– vessel anomalities
– people with electrical implants, such as a cardiac
pacemaker
– women who are pregnant.
Due to their condition the oscillometric measurement
method can produce incorrect readings. This represents
a risk for your health, since values may be interpreted
incorrectly. Always consult your physician to determine
what will be suitable for you.
This product does not and is not intended to provide a
medical diagnosis. Measurements results are for refer-
ence only. Self-diagnosis and treatment, e.g. regarding
medication, using measured results represent a risk for
your health. Always consult with a licensed physician
for determination of appropriate medication and dos-
age thereof. Follow the instructions of your physician or
licensed healthcare provider. If you have or suspect that
you have a medical problem, promptly consult your
physician. If you have an emergency please call 911
immediately.
Only a physician or a trained health care professional
who is familiar with your medical history is able to ac-
curately interpret your blood pressure measurements.
Consult your physician before starting blood pressure
monitoring.
This product is not intended to serve as a substitute for
the advice of a physician or medical professional. This
product is not intended to substitute for regular medical
checkups. Contact your physician for specific informa-
tion about your blood pressure.

Please note that technically related measuring tolerances
are possible. Please see section “Technical data” for
details.
Note: A single measurement does not provide an ac-
curate indication of your true blood pressure. You need
to take and record several readings over a period of
time. Try to measure your blood pressure at the same
time each day for consistency.
Any cuff related blood pressure measurement in high
repetition rates, can lead to severe measurement side
effects, e.g.
– any nerv compression with temporary arm
/ hand
paralysis
– the release of an arterial or venous thrombus, which
can cause a life threatening situation.
Please contact your physician about the specific risks of
cuff pressure in your specific case.
The ’irregular heartbeat’ function does not replace a
cardiac examination, but may help to detect potential
pulse irregularities at an early stage. Always consult
your physician to determine what will be suitable for
you.
The ’irregular heartbeat’ function is not designed for di-
agnosing or treating an arrhythmic disorder. Arrhythmia
can only be ascertained by a licensed physician.

safety. Children should be supervised to ensure they
do not play with the device.
Cardiovascular system diseases may result in incorrect
measurements and/or impairments to the device‘s mea-
surement accuracy. This is also the case when it comes
to low blood pressure, diabetes, circulatory problems
and dysrhythmia, as well as chills and shaking.
Ensure that the cuff is not placed on an arm whose
arteries or veins are undergoing medical treatment, i.e.
intravascular access or intravascular therapy or an
arteriovenous (A-V) shunt.

Attention: The device may only be used in conjunction
with the original cuff provided.
Failure to observe the following
warnings may result in injuries or property
damage.
The device should not be used when your arm has been
wounded/injuried or when a catheter has been inserted.
Such use may result in injury.
Remove any kind of arm jewelry or the like before taking
a measurement. This could cause bruises.
Do not place the cuff over heavy clothing (e.g. a jacket
or sweater sleeve) as the blood pressure monitor will not
be able to take a proper measurement and there is an
elevated danger of acquiring hematoma or skin marks
during the course of the measurement.

measurement, e.g. laying your arms or any other object
on the hose. This could cause incorrect measurements.
Blood pressure measurements can lead to temporary
marks on the skin at the site of the cuff placement. This is
especially the case in high repetition rates, in hypertonic
patients and in patients with weak pulses. In rare cases a
mark may persist for a couple of days. Please contact your
physician about these specific risks of cuff pressure in your
specific case.
For hygienic reasons the cuff is intended only for the use
by one person.
Prolonged over-inflation (cuff pressure exceeds 300 mmHg
or maintained above 15 mmHg for longer than 3 minutes)
of the bladder may cause ecchymoma of your arm.
Please note that when inflating, the functions of the limb
in question may be impaired.
Do not place the cuff over wounds as this may cause
further injury.
The accuracy of any blood pressure measurement with
this device can be affected by a multitude of causes.
Some can be avoided some have to be accepted at the
time of measurement. Speak with your physician about
possible causes affecting your blood pressure.
21 US-EN
870_silv_Blutdruckmessgeraet_Content_US.indd 21 04.07.19 09:1

Advice on use
For consistency, always measure your blood pressure at
the same time each day.
Always wait at least 5 minutes before starting the initial
measurement to allow the blood circulation in your arm to
return to normal. You may need to increase the wait time
depending on your individual physiological characteris-
tics. Because of normal physiologic changes and the
many external factorressure, it is
unusual to obtain identical blood pressure measure-
ments, even when taken a few minutes apart. Speak
with your physician to deteryour
blood pressure and which variation may be seen as nor-
mal in your case.
When performing multiple measurements on an individ-
ual, wait at least one minute between each measure-
ment.
Do not take a measurement within 30 minutes of eating,
drinking, smoking or exercising. You should not be physi-
cally tired or exhausted while taking measurement.
Repeat the measurement if you are unsure of the results.
Measurements are for your information only – they are
no substitute for a medical examination. Discuss the
measurements 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,
pregnant women or patients with pre-eclampsia. Con-
sult your doctor before using the blood pressure moni-
tor during pregnancy.

870_silv_Blutdruckmessgeraet_Content_US.indd 26 04.07.19 09:1
Cardiovascular diseases may lead to incorrect mea-
surements or have a detrrement
accuracy. The same also applies to very low blood
pressure, diabetes, circulatory disorders and arrhyth-
mias as well as chills or shaking.
For reliable monitoring and reference of blood pres-
sure, keeping long-term records is recommended.
To minimize measurement variations due to physical
activity, rest at least 5 minutes before measuring your
blood pressure (or 15 minutes after strenuous activity).
Stress raises blood pressure.
Perform measurements in a quiet and relaxed environ-
ment at room temperature.

Evaluating measurements
Cardiac arrhythmia
This device can identify any potential cardiac arrhythmia
disorders and, if necessary, indicates this after the measurement process with the symbol
. This can be an indicator
for arrhythmia.
40 US-EN
870_silv_Blutdruckmessgeraet_Content_US.indd 40 04.07.19 09:1
Arrhythmia is an illness in which the heart rhythm is abnormal due to errors in the bioelectric system, which controls
the heartbeat. The symptoms (skipped or premature heartbeats, slow or rapid pulse) can stem from heart conditions,
age, physical predispositions, an excess of luxury foods,
stress or a lack of sleep. Arrhythmia can only be diagnosed
by a doctor after a physical examination.
Repeat the measurement process if the symbol is
shown on the display after the measurement. Please make
sure that you rest for a minute before the measurement
and do not talk or move during it.
If the symbol is displayed repeat-
edly, contact your doctor. Self-diagnosis and self-treat-
ment on the basis of measurement results can be dangerous. Follow your doctor‘s instructions.
Risk indicator
In accordance with the guidelines / definitions provided by
the Joint National Committee (JNC) and the latest findings,
the measurement results can be classified and evaluated according to the following table:

The JNC chart is not intended to replace a medical diagnosis. This
chart is only a reference for different classifications of blood pressure.
Note: These standard values merely serve as a general
guideline as blood pressure deviates depending on the
individual, different age groups, etc.
42 US-EN
870_silv_Blutdruckmessgeraet_Content_US.indd 42 04.07.19 09:1
It is important that you consult your doctor at regular intervals.
Your doctor will give you your particular values for normal
blood pressure as well as the value for when your blood
pressure is classified as dangerous.
The bar chart on the display and the scale on the device
state which range the blood pressure measured is in.
If the values for systolic and diastolic pressure are in two
different JNC ranges (e.g. systolic in the Stage 1 Hypertension range and diastolic pressure in the normal range) the
graphic JNC classification on the unit indicates the higher
range (Stage 1 Hypertension in the example described).
