2) Remove sleeves and jewellery from the arm and wrist before applying the cuff.
3) Avoid eating, smoking, drinking and exercising before taking the reading.
4) Always use the same arm (preferably the left one) to take the reading. Rest the arm on a hard surface so that the
cuff is level with the heart. Use the case or similar object to support the forearm. The arm must be stretched out
and relaxed. When the reading is being taken, do not move any part of the body or the blood pressure monitor.
5) Rest both feet on the floor without crossing legs or feet.
6) Readings should always be taken at the same time to allow a comparison of blood pressure readings.
7) Do not rely on a single reading. We recommend taking at least two readings at least 10/15 minutes
apart. It is important to rest the arm during this time as blood congestion may result in false readings.
8) If unpleasant sensations are experienced during a reading, immediately turn the device off using the "O/I" button.
TAKING A READING
1) Insert the air hose plug into the blood pressure monitor socket.
2) Press the "O/I" button. All function symbols will appear on the display for a few seconds.
The display will read " ", which indicates the first memory area; select the desired memory area using the "M" key
and confirm with the "O/I" key. If no keys are pressed within 5 seconds, the monitor will automatically use the
displayed memory area. The display reads 0.
3) If there is still air in the cuff from the previous reading, the
The cuff will automatically inflate and will stop when it reaches the right level. Try to stay relaxed, without speaking
or moving.
If the preset pressure (190 mmHg) is considered insufficient or if a hand movement is made, the device will start
inflation over again (until a maximum of 295 mmHg).
4) The cuff will automatically inflate and the display will show the systolic and diastolic pressure, heart rate, date and
time of the reading.
The (
) symbol appears only in the event of an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia). The segments on the left of the
display indicate the classification of blood pressure readings.
5) The device will turn off automatically after about 1 minute of non-use. Otherwise, it can be turned off by pressing
the "O/I" key.
The reading can be interrupted by pressing the "O/I" key.
Make sure the batteries are charged: worn or low batteries compromise the efficiency of the pump,
which is subsequently unable to provide sufficient inflation pressure within the preset time range. For this
reason, the monitor will display the ERR message. Therefore, replace the batteries.
symbol will flash on the display for a few seconds.

MEMORY FUNCTION
The device can store up to 30 readings in each memory area (4 memory areas).
After every reading, all values are automatically stored:
To call up the readings, press the "M" key: the display will show the last memory area used, and in the lower left, the
number of readings stored in that specific memory area. Select the desired memory area by pressing the "O/I" key and
confirm by pressing the "M" key.
To scroll the stored readings, press the "M" key and the following will appear in order:
• the reading average is indicated by the letter "AL" in the bottom left corner of the display,
• the morning reading average (from 5:00am-9:00am in the last 7 days) is indicated by the initials "A7",
• the afternoon reading average (from 6:00pm-8:00pm in the last 7 days) is indicated by the initials "P7",
• most recent to oldest readings: the number 01 indicates the most recent reading, the number 30 indicates the
oldest.
The device will turn off automatically after about 1 minute of non-use. Otherwise, it can be turned off by pressing the
"O/I" key.
After 30 readings, the oldest data will be automatically deleted.
If there are no stored readings, the display will show "0 SYS 0 DIA".
DELETION OF SAVED DATA
It is possible to delete all saved readings: press the "M" key and when the display shows the reading
average, press it again for approx. 3 seconds. The display will show
It is not possible to delete stored data from a single memory area.
MAINTENANCE
• Store the device in its case in a well-ventilated and dry place without wrapping the hose too tightly and without
resting any heavy objects on top of it.
• Clean the blood pressure monitor using a soft cloth, either dry or moistened with water and a liquid disinfectant.
• Never use chemicals or abrasives.
• It is recommended to clean the cuff after about 200 uses. NEVER wash the cuff in the washing machine and do not
rub it vigorously, but rather delicately wipe the surface with a soft cloth, either dry or moistened with ethyl alcohol
(75-90%) and leave it to dry naturally.
Do NOT press the "O/I" key if the cuff is not wrapped around the wrisf.
Do NOT disassemble the device.
• It is recommended to check the performance of the device every 2 years or after repairs. Contact Laica service
