Advice on use
• Always measure your blood pressure at the same time of
day, in order to ensure that values are comparable.
• Relax for approx. 5 minutes before each measurement.
• You should wait five minutes before measuring a second
time.
• The readings that you take may only be used for informa-
tion purposes – they are not a substitute for a medical
enGlIsh
examination! Discuss your results with the doctor. Never
use them to make medical decisions independently (e.g.
regarding medication and dosage thereof).
• There may be incorrect measurements where there is car-
diocirculatory disease, as well as with very low blood pres-
sure, circulatory disorders, dysrhythmia and other preexist-
ing diseases.
• Only use the instrument on persons whose upper arm has
the right circumference for the instrument.
• You may only operate the blood pressure monitor with
batteries. Note that it is only possible to save data when
your blood pressure monitor is receiving power. As soon
as the batteries are dead, the date and time on the blood
pressure monitor are lost. Any measurement results that
have been stored are however retained.
• The automatic switch-off function switches off the blood
pressure monitor in order to preserve the batteries, if no
button is pressed within one minute.

tronic components. Accuracy of readings and the instru-
