actual blood pressure values. It is recommended to repeat the
measurement.
Information for the doctor in case of repeated appearance
of the IHB symbol:
This device is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also
measures the pulse during blood pressure measurement and
indicates when the heart rate is irregular.
4. Data memory
This device automatically stores the last 30 measurement values.
Viewing the stored values
Press the M-button 3 briefly, when the device is switched off. The
display first shows «M» AP, and «A»which stands for the average
of all stored values.
Pressing the M-button again displays the previous value. Pressing
the M-button repeatedly enables you to move from one stored
value to another.
Blood pressure readings with suboptimal cuff fit AR-A are
not considered in the average value.
Pay attention that the maximum memory capacity of 30
memories is not exceeded. When the 30 memory is full,
the oldest value is automatically overwritten with the 31
value. Values should be evaluated by a doctor before the
memory capacity is reached – otherwise data will be lost.
Clearing all values
If you are sure that you want to permanently remove all stored
values, hold down the M-button (the device must have been
switched off beforehand) until «CL ALL» appears and then
release the button. To permanently clear the memory, press the
time button while «CL ALL» is flashing. Individual values cannot
be cleared.
Cancel deletion: press ON/OFF button 1 while «CL
ALL» is flashing.
5. Battery indicator and battery change
Low battery
When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol
AN will flash as soon as the device is switched on (partly filled
4
battery displayed). Although the device will continue to measure
reliably, you should obtain replacement batteries.
Flat battery - replacement
When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol AN will flash as soon
as the device is switched on (flat battery displayed). You cannot
take any further measurements and must replace the batteries.
1. Open the battery compartment 7 at the back of the device.
2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the
symbols in the compartment.
3. To set date and time, follow the procedure described in Section
«1. Using the device for the first time».
The memory retains all values although date and time must
be reset – the year number therefore flashes automatically
after the batteries are replaced.
Which batteries and which procedure?
Use 4 new, long-life 1.5 V, size AA alkaline batteries.
Do not use batteries beyond their date of expiry.
Remove batteries if the device is not going to be used for a
prolonged period.
Using rechargeable batteries
You can also operate this device using rechargeable batteries.
Only use «NiMH» type reusable batteries.
Batteries must be removed and recharged when the flat
battery symbol appears. They should not remain inside the
device as they may become damaged (total discharge as a
result of low use of the device, even when switched off).
Always remove the rechargeable batteries if you do not
intend to use the device for a week or more.
Batteries cannot be charged in the blood pressure monitor.
Recharge batteries in an external charger and observe the
information regarding charging, care and durability.
6. Using a mains adapter
You can operate this device using the Microlife mains adapter (DC
6V, 600 mA).
Only use the Microlife mains adapter available as an orig-
inal accessory appropriate for your supply voltage.
