5.6. Discontinuing a measurement
If it is necessary to interrupt a blood pressure measurement for any reason (e.g., the
patient feels unwell), press STOP at any time. The device then immediately lowers the
cuff pressure automatically and enters sleep mode.
5.7. Setting the medication reminder
This instrument allows you to set two alarm times at which an alarm signal will then
be triggered. This can be a useful aid, for instance, as a reminder to take medication or
to remind you to take your blood pressure at the same time each day.
1. To set an alarm time, the instrument must be in standby
mode (unlit screen) and time/date must be set (see section
4.4). Press and hold the word "TIME" for approximately 7
seconds, until the bell symbol appears in the bottom left of
the display. Release the buttons. The flashing "1" in the
display indicates that the first alarm time can now be set.
To confirm, press enter.
To set a second alarm time, proceed as above but press
plus to toggle to alarm "2." To confirm, press enter.
2. The hour display will now flash. Use plus and minus to
select the alarm hour. To confirm and then set the minute,
press enter.
3. Please follow the instructions above to set the minute.
4. Once the minute is set, the bell symbol will flash. Use the
minus and plus buttons to set the alarm as active (bell) or
inactive (crossed-out bell). To confirm, press enter.
• An active alarm time is indicated by the bell symbol in the display.
• The alarm will sound at the set time every day.
• To switch off the alarm when it is sounding, press STOP.
• To permanently switch off the alarm, proceed as above (steps 1-4) and select the
crossed-out bell symbol. The bell will then disappear from the display.
• The alarm times must be re-entered each time the batteries are replaced
