Inserting batteries
• Use alkaline batteries, type LR 03 (AAA) (e.g. Duracell
Ultra) as supplied with this product or rechargeable
batteries.
• Remove the battery compartment cover (F) and insert two
batteries with correct polarity (see symbol in the battery
compartment (E)).
• New batteries (Duracell Ultra) will provide approxi-
mately 300 measurements.
• Only discard empty batteries. They should not be
disposed of in the household waste, but at appropriate
collection sites or at your dealer.
Use of rechargeable batteries
In case rechargeable batteries are used, please note that the
«battery low» symbol may appear earlier on the display than
with alkaline batteries. However, this will not affect the
measuring accuracy.
Key rules for accurate blood pressure
measurements
• Always take readings at the same time of day, ideally in the
morning, under the same conditions.
• Do not measure within 30 minutes after smoking, coffee
or tea consumption.
• Take off wrist watch and jewellery before fitting the
appliance on the measuring arm.
• While taking a measurement, sit down, relax, keep still,
especially the hand of the measuring arm, do not move
or speak.
• Hold the appliance at heart level.
• Wait approximately 3 minutes before repeating a
measurement.
