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.
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.
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.
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.
Do not press the start/stop button
placed on.
We advise you to remove the batteries if the device is not
going to be used for a longer period of time.
Advice on batteries
Batteries can be fatal if swallowed. You should therefore
store the batteries and products where they are inaccessi-
ble to small children. If a battery has been swallowed, call
a doctor immediately.
Batteries should not be charged or reactivated with any
other means, nor should they be taken apart, thrown in
the fire or short-circuited.
Remove the batteries from the instrument if they are worn
out or if you are not going to use the instrument for any
length of time. This prevents any damage as a result of
leakage. Always replace all the batteries at the same time.
Never use different types of battery, battery brands or
batteries with different capacities. You should preferably
use alkaline batteries.
