• Proper cuff size is important for accurate measurements. Only
use the device on adults who have the right upper arm circum-
ference for this instrument. See section "11. Technical Specifi-
cations" for suitable arm circumferences.
• Do not use any cuffs, tubes, parts and accessories other than
those explicitly recommended by the manufacturer for use
with this product. Parts and accessories not approved for use
with the device may cause damage to your health and to the
product.
• Electromagnetic interference: Avoid strong electrical or elec-
tromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity of the device (e.g. mo-
bile telephones, microwave ovens) while it is in operation, as
inaccurate measurements may result. To prevent such interfer-
ence, use the unit at a sufficient distance from such devices
or turn the devices off.
• Do not measure your blood pressure while operating a vehicle
or in any situation which requires your full attention.
CAUTION:
• The device should not be used when your arm has been wound-
ed/injuried or when a catheter has been inserted. Such use
may result in injury.
• Remove any kind of upper arm jewelry or the like before taking
a measurement. This could cause bruises.
• Do not place the arm cuff over heavy clothing (e.g. a jacket or
sweater sleeve) as the blood pressure monitor will not be able
to take a proper measurement and there is an elevated danger
of acquiring hematoma or skin marks during the course of the
measurement.
• In case the cuff does not stop inflating, interrupt the measure-
ment by pressing the ON/OFF button
at once.
• If a battery has leaked do not touch the battery fluid. Avoid skin
contact (e.g. put on protective gloves) and clean the battery
compartment with a dry cloth.
• Do not disassemble the unit, it may result in injuries.
• When applying the arm cuff, make sure there are no wrinkles
in the cuff. This could cause bruises.
• Do not exert any kind of pressure on the hose during measure-
ment, e.g. laying your arms or any other object on the hose.
This could cause incorrect measurements.
• Blood pressure measurements can lead to temporary marks
on the skin at the site of the cuff placement. This is especially
the case in high repetition rates, in hypertonic patients and in
patients with weak heart rates. In rare cases a mark may persist
for a couple of days. Please contact your physician about these
specific risks of cuff pressure in your specific case.
