• This device is not intended for use by people (including
children) with restricted physical, sensory or mental skills
or a lack of experience and/or a lack of knowledge, unless
they are supervised by a person who is responsible for
their safety or are instructed by such a person in how to
use the device. Supervise children around the device to
ensure they do not play with it.
• Cardiovascular diseases may lead to incorrect measure-
ments or have a detrimental effect on measurement accu-

diabetes, circulatory disorders and arrhythmias as well as
chills or shaking.

tion with a high-frequency surgical unit.
• Only use the unit on people who have the specified wrist

in question may be impaired.
• During the blood pressure measurement, blood circula-
tion must not be stopped for an unnecessarily long time.
If the device malfunctions, remove the cuff from the arm.
• Do not allow sustained pressure in the cuff or frequent
measurements. 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.
intravascular access or therapy, or an arteriovenous (AV)
shunt.
• Do not use the cuff on people who have undergone a
mastectomy.
• Do not place the cuff over wounds as this may cause fur-
ther injury.
• Place the cuff on your upper arm only. Do not place the
cuff on other parts of the body.
• The blood pressure monitor can only be operated with
batteries.
• To conserve the batteries, the monitor switches off auto-
matically 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.

tronic components. Accuracy of readings and the instru-
ment's service life depend on careful handling.
