present tubes or cables may provide a risk of strangulation.
• Ensure the cuff tubing is not kinked during use as harmful injury may occur due to
the effect of blood flow interference caused by high pressure in the cuff not releasing.
DO NOT:
Use this device if you think it is damaged or anything appears unusual (e.g. spo-
radic operation, open packaging upon purchase).
Use the displayed pulse for checking the frequency of heart pacemakers as this
device is not suitable for this action.
Open/modify this device; inaccuracy and/or harmful injury may result.
Conduct many frequent measurements as this may result in harmful injury due to
blood flow interference.
Place the Cuff over a wound as this may cause further injury.
Place and pressurize the Cuff over/near any present intravascular access or therapy,
or arteriovenous shunt, as this may cause blood flow interference and result in
harmful injury.
Place and pressurize the Cuff over a limb near the side of a mastectomy as this may
cause harmful injury.
Use the Blood Pressure Monitor on a limb simultaneously with other medical equip-
ment on the same limb due to possible interference with such medical equipment.
Maintain pressure in the Cuff applied to the limb for a prolonged amount of time.
Ensure that circulation in the limb is not impaired by checking circulation if pro-
longed/repeated exposure to pressure occurs.
Service the device when being used or when power is supplied. When the device is
not in use and power is removed, cuff assembly, batteries and ac adapter (if appli-
cable) may be replaced by the user with Microlife supplied replacements. No other
parts/components are accessible.
CAUTION – Potentially hazardous situation that if not avoided may
result in minor/moderate injury, property damage, and/or damage to the
device
• This device contains sensitive electronics components. Avoid strong electrical or
electromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity of the device (e.g., mobile telephones,
microwave ovens). These can lead to temporary impairment of the measuring accu-
racy. Move the device to another location if interference is determined.
• When not using the Blood Pressure Monitor for extended lengths of time, remove
