Further information
Blood pressure is subject to fluctuations even in healthy people. Comparable
measurements always require the same conditions (quiet conditions)!
In order to receive market clearance from governmental bodies, this device was
subjected to strict clinical tests. The computer program used to measure blood
pressure values was tested by experienced cardiac specialists in Germany.

Potential cause and remedy
Record the daily development of the
measured values and consult your
doctor.
Check batteries for
correct polarity.
Check the positioning of the
