interrupt the measurement by pressing the
start/stop button

injuries.

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 pulses. 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.

heating radiators). This may damage the unit.
