Memory function
Your ExactFit™ 1 blood pressure monitor will automatically store the
latest measurement. Storing is done automatically after the completed
measurement.
To recall the reading, press and hold the power button
4 seconds while the unit is switched off. When all the display elements
are shown, release the power button and the screen will show the last
reading with an
symbol.
Battery charge indicator
Batteries almost discharged
When the batteries are approximately 75%
used, a battery warning appears. This icon
blinks 3 times first when the device is turned
on, then goes to measuring mode. The
monitor will continue to measure reliably, but
new batteries should be obtained.
Batteries discharged—replacements required
When the batteries are fully discharged,
the battery symbol will flash empty along
with 3 short beep sounds as soon as the
device is switched on. You cannot take any
further measurement and must replace
the batteries. Refer to the section called
"Inserting batteries".
Storage and cleaning
•
Do not expose device to either extreme temperatures, humidity, dust
or direct sunlight.
•
The cuff contains a sensitive air-tight inflatable bladder. Handle this
carefully and avoid all types of straining through twisting or buckling.
•
Clean the device with a soft dry cloth. Stains on the cuff can be
carefully removed with a damp cloth. Do not use gasoline, thinners or
similar solvents. Do not wash or dry clean the cuff. Do not store the
product in a place exposed to direct sunlight or high humidity.
•
Do not drop the device or treat it roughly in any way. Avoid strong
vibrations.
•
NEVER open the device! This will make the manufacturer's warranty
invalid and could adversely affect the device's accuracy!

too high
«Lo»
Pulse too low
Potential cause and remedy
Get ready to replace batteries soon with
new ones.
Insert new batteries or check that
batteries are correctly inserted.
The pulse signals on the cuff are too
weak. Re-position the cuff and repeat
the measurement.
During the measurement, error signals
were detected by the cuff, caused for
instance by movement or muscle
tension. Repeat the measurement,
keeping the arm still.
An adequate pressure cannot be
generated in the cuff. A leak may have
occurred. Check that the cuff is correctly
connected and is not too loose. Replace
the batteries if necessary. Repeat the
measurement.
The measuring signals are inaccurate
and no result can therefore be
displayed. Read through the checklist
for performing reliable measurements
and then repeat the measurement.
The pressure in the cuff is too high (over
300 mmHg) OR the pulse is too high
(over 200 beats per minute). Relax for
5 minutes and repeat the measurement.
The pulse is too low (less than 40 beats
per minute). Repeat the measurement.
