Cleaning And Storing The Device And Cuff; Advice On Use - Beurer BC 57 Manual De Instrucciones

Cleaning and storing the device and cuff

To keep your digital blood pressure monitor in the
best condition and protect the unit from damage
follow the directions listed below:
• Do not use any cleaning agents or solvents.
• Under no circumstances hold the device and
cuff under water, as this can cause liquid to
enter and damage the device and cuff.
• If you store the device and cuff, do not place
heavy objects on the device and cuff. Remove
the batteries.
• Clean your device and cuff carefully only with a
slightly moistened soft cloth and dry it immedi-
ately with a soft dry cloth.
• When storing the device, make sure that no
heavy objects are placed on top of it.
• Do not fold the cuff tightly. If the unit is stored
near freezing, allow it to acclimate to room tem-
perature before use.
• Always store the unit in its storage case after
use.
• This unit may not meet its performance spec-
ifications if stored or used outside of the tem-
perature and humidity ranges (see section '13.
Technical Specifications').
• Use the unit consistent with the instruction pro-
vided in this manual.

Advice on use

• For consistency, always measure your blood
pressure at the same time each day.
• Always wait at least 5 minutes between mea-
surements to allow the blood circulation in
your arm to return to normal. You may need to
increase the wait time depending on your indi-
vidual physiological characteristics. Because
of normal physiologic changes and the many
external factors influencing blood pressure, it
is unusual to obtain identical blood pressure
measurements, even when taken a few minutes
apart. Speak with your physician to determine
what is affecting your blood pressure and which
variation may be seen as normal in your case.
