• Please note that when inflating, the functions of the limb in
question may be impaired.
• During the blood pressure measurement, blood circulation
must not be stopped for an unnecessarily long time. If the
device malfunctions, remove the cuff from the arm.
• Avoid any mechanical restriction, compression or bending of
the cuff line.
• Do not allow sustained pressure in the cuff or frequent meas-
urements. The resulting restriction of the blood flow may
cause injury.
• Ensure that the cuff is not placed on an arm in which the
arteries or veins are undergoing medical treatment, e.g. intra-
vascular access or therapy, or an arteriovenous (AV) shunt.
• Do not use the cuff on people who have undergone a mas-
tectomy.
• Do not place the cuff over wounds as this may cause further
injury.
• The blood pressure monitor can be operated with batter-
ies. Please note that data transfer and data storage is only
possible when your blood pressure monitor is supplied with
power. As soon as the batteries are empty, the blood pres-
sure monitor loses the date and time.
• To conserve the batteries, the monitor switches off automati-
cally if no buttons are pressed for one minute.
• The device is only intended for the purpose described in
these instructions for use. The manufacturer is not liable for
damage resulting from improper or careless use.
Storage and Care
• The blood pressure monitor is made up of precision elec-
tronic components. Accuracy of readings and the instru-
ment's service life depend on careful handling.
– You should protect the device from impact, moisture, dirt,
major temperature fluctuations and direct exposure to the
sun's rays.
– Never drop the device.
– Do not use near strong electromagnetic fields, i.e. keep it
away from any radio systems and mobile phones.
– Only ever use the cuffs provided with the monitor or origi-
nal replacement cuffs. Otherwise erroneous results will be
recorded.
• Do not press any buttons until the cuff is in position.
• If the instrument is not used for any length of time, we rec-
ommend removing the batteries.
Notes on handling batteries
• If your skin or eyes come into contact with battery fluid, flush
out the affected areas with water and seek medical assis-
tance.
• Choking hazard! Small children may swallow and
choke on batteries. Store the batteries out of the reach of
small children.
• Observe the plus (+) and minus (-) polarity signs.
• If a battery has leaked, put on protective gloves and clean
the battery compartment with a dry cloth.
• Protect the batteries from excessive heat.
