GENERAL REMARKS
7.
DO NOT try to measure your blood pressure immediately after drinking coffee or
tea or after smoking.
8.
Measure your blood pressure when you are relaxed and still. Keep the center of
the cuff at the level of your heart and DO NOT move your arm or talk.
9.
DO NOT measure blood pressure when the cuff has been on your arm for a
few minutes or more. During this time, your arm will have built up a higher blood
pressure and you will not get valid reading.

standards.

Definitions and Classifications of Blood Pressure Levels
11. Intended Use
• This device is noninvasive blood pressure monitor by oscillometric method.
This device can measure the systolic blood pressure (SYS), the diastolic blood
pressure (DIA) and the pulse rate automatically.
• This device is intended to be used for checking personal health condition at
home under the direction of a physician and is not intended to be a diagnostic
device.
• This device is not intended for use with neonates or infant, and not intended
for automatic cycling measurement.
Measure your blood pressure at the same time each day.
* Your blood pressure changes all the time. This means that data gathered over a
long period has far more significance than data from just one measurement. For this
reason, you must measure your blood pressure on a daily basis. Ideally, you should
measure your blood pressure at the same time each day, wherever possible.
