10.The result, comprising the systolic 9 and the diastolic AT
blood pressure and the pulse rate AK are displayed. Note also
the explanations on further display symbols in this booklet.
11.When the device has finished measuring, remove the cuff.
12.Switch off the device. (The monitor does switch off automati-
cally after approx. 1 min.).
4. Appearance of the irregular heartbeat (IHB) symbol
This symbol AL indicates that an irregular heartbeat was detected.
In this case, the measured blood pressure may deviate from your
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.
5. Data memory
This device automatically stores the last 30 measurement values.
Viewing the stored values
Press the M-button 8 briefly, when the device is switched off. The
display first shows «M» AO, and «28A»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.
Memory full
Pay attention that the maximum memory capacity of 30
memories per user is not exceeded. When the 30 memory
is full, the oldest value is automatically overwritten with
the 31th 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» appears and then release the
4
button. To permanently clear the memory, press the M-button
while «CL» is flashing. Individual values cannot be cleared.
How not to store a reading
As soon as the reading is displayed press and hold the ON/OFF
button 1 until «M» AO is flashing. Confirm to delete the reading by
pressing the M-button 8.
6. 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
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 5 on the bottom of the device.
2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the
symbols in the compartment.
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.
