Not intended to be used together with HF surgical equipment.
The devices that we use for preventive measures should not be taken as a replacement for doctor’s prescriptions.
Serious blood pressure ailments should be discussed with the doctors immediately.
The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart pacemakers!
In cases of cardiac irregularity (Arrhythmia), measurements made with this instrument should only be evaluated after consultation with the doctor.
The device contains sensitive electronic components (Microcomputer).Therefore, avoid strong electrical or electromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity of the device (e.g. mobile telephones, microwave cookers). These can lead to temporary impairment of the measuring accuracy.
2. IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON THE SUBJECT OF BLOOD-PRESSURE AND ITS MEASUREMENT
2.1. How Does High/Low Blood-Pressure Arise?
The level of blood-pressure is determined in a part of the brain, the circulatory center as it is called. Then it is received by the respective center byway of feedback via the nervous system. To adjust the blood-pressure, the strength and the frequency of the heart (Pulse) as well as the width of circulatory blood vessels is altered. The width of circulatory blood vessels is affected byway the fine muscles are aligned in the blood-vessel walls. The level of arterial blood pressure changes periodically during the heart activity: During the blood ejection (Systole) the value is maximal (systolic blood-pressure value), at the end of the heart’s rest period (Diastole)the value is minimal (diastolic blood pressure value). The blood-pressure values must lie within certain normal ranges in order to prevent sever diseases.
2.2. Which Values Are Normal?
If you are undergoing medical treatment to control your blood pressure, please keep a record of the level of your blood pressure by carrying out regular self measurements at specific times of the day. Never alter the doses of your medicines on your own on the basis of self measurement of blood pressure. Show these values to your doctor for appropriate treatment.
Table for classifying blood-pressure values (unit: mmHg) according to World Health Organization:
Further InformationIf your values are mostly standard under resting conditions but exceptionally high under conditions of physical or psychological stress, it is possible that you are suffering from labile hypertension. Please consult your doctor if you suspect that this might be the case. While correctly measured diastolic blood-pressure values above 120mmHg require immediate medical treatment.

5. CARRYING OUT A MEASUREMENT
5.1. Before The Measurement
Avoid eating or smoking directly before the measurement. Refrain from exerting yourself before you take the measurement. If you can, take out time to relax by sitting in an armchair in a quite atmosphere for about ten minutes before the measurement.
Measure always on the same arm (preferably left).
Attempt to carryout the measurements regularly at the same time of day, since the blood-pressure changes during the course of the day.
5.2.Common Sources of Error
Note: Comparable blood-pressure measurements require the same conditions! Make sure you replicate the environment every time you take a measurement.
Any efforts by the patient to support the arm can increase the blood-pressure. Make sure you are in a comfortable, relaxed position. Avoid flexing any of the muscles of the arm during the measurement. Use a cushion for support if necessary.
The performance of the automated BP monitor can be affected by extremes of temperature, humidity and altitude.
Avoid compression or restriction of the connection tubing.
A loose cuff causes false measurement values.
With repeated measurements, blood accumulates in the respective arm, which can lead to false results. Correctly executed blood-pressure measurements should therefore first be repeated after a 5 minute pause or after the arm has been held up in order to allow the accumulated blood to flow away(after at least3 minutes).
5.3. Fitting The Cuff
Insert air connector into air outlet as shown in left picture and please make sure the air connector is fitted properly to avoid air leakage. Following steps might help you in fitting the cuff.
a) Secure the cuff with the Velcro fastener, so that it lies comfortably leaving no space between the cuff and the arm. Make sure it’s not too tight on the arm.
b) Lay the arm on a table, with the palm upwards. Support the arm with a rest cushion, so that the cuff rests at about the same height as the heart. Take care, that the cuff lies free. Sit still and quietly for two minutes in the exact position before start taking the measurement.
c) Leave your legs uncrossed, feet flat on the floor, while supporting back and arm.
After the cuff has been appropriately positioned, the measurement can begin:
5.4 Measuring Procedure
a) Press the ON/OFF button, the pump begins to inflate the cuff. The increasing cuff-pressure is continually displayed in the display.
b) Once the value reaches inflation pressure, the pump stops, and the pressure slowly falls. The cuff-pressure is displayed during the measurement. Once the device has detected the pulse, the heart symbol in the display begins to blink for every pulse beat.
c) When the measurement has been concluded. The measured systolic and diastolic blood-pressure values as well as the pulse frequency get displayed. Example (Fig.): Systole 118, Diastole 73, Pulse 75.
The measurement results are displayed, until you switch the device off. If no button is pressed for 3 minutes, the device switches automatically off, to save the batteries.
5.5. Discontinuing a Measurement
At times of emergencies when you have to necessarily interrupt a blood pressure measurement, you can press the On/Off power button any time you want. The device immediately lowers the cuff-pressure automatically.
5.6.Memory-Storage and Recall of the Measurements
The blood-pressure monitor automatically stores last 120 measurement values. By pressing the MEMORY button, an average value of the last 3 measurements as well as the the further last 120 measurements (MR119,MR118, … ,MR1) can be displayed one after the other
(Mr1: Values of the last measurement) (MR2-MR120: Values of the measurement before MR1)
5.7. Memory Full
Make sure that the maximum memory capacity is not exceeded. When the memory is full, the old values are automatically replaced new ones. Display screen shows “memory full” to warn you to change the batteries.
5.8. Memory-Cancellation of All Measurements Attention
Ensure you will not need the stored readings later before clearing the, memory of the device. Keeping a written record is advised for assistance during your next doctor’s visit. For deleting the stored, readings, long press the MEMORY button for at least 5 seconds, the ta LL display will show the symbol «CL», then release the button. To permanently clear the memory, Press the MEMORY button while «CL» is flashing
6. APPEARANCE OF THE PULSE ARRHYTHMIA INDICATOR FOR EARLY DETECTION
This symbol indicates detection of pulse irregularities during the measurement. In this case, the result may deviate from your normal blood pressure. In most cases, this is no cause for concern. However, if the symbol appears on a regular basis (e.g. several times a week with measurements taken daily) we advise you to consult your doctor.
Please show your doctor the following explanation
This instrument is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor which also analyses pulse frequency during measurement. The instrument is clinically tested. The arrhythmia symbol is displayed earthen measurement if pulse irregularities occur during measurement. If the symbol appears more frequently (e.g., several times per week on measurements performed daily) we recommend the patient to seek medical advice.The instrument does not replace a cardiac examination but serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.
7. ERROR MESSAGES /MALFUNCTIONS
If an error occurs during a measurement, the measurement is discontinued, and a corresponding error code is displayed.
ATTENTION
The values of blood pressure are subjected to fluctuations even in healthy people. To avoid this to a certain extent, ensure that the comparable measurements are taken in similar conditions.
