Caution - Beurer BM 58 Manual De Instrucciones

• Proper cuff size is important for accurate measurements.
Only use the device on adults who have the right upper arm
circumference for this instrument. See section "4.2 Cuff
Selection" and section "12. Technical Specifications" for
suitable arm circumferences.
• Do not use any cuffs, tubes, parts and accessories oth-
er than those explicitly recommended by "Beurer North
America" for use with this product. Parts and accessories
not approved for use with the device may cause damage
to your health and to the product.
• Electromagnetic interference: Avoid strong electrical or
electromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity of the device
(e.g. mobile telephones, microwave ovens) while it is in op-
eration, as inaccurate measurements may result. To pre-
vent such interference, use the unit at a sufficient distance
from such devices or turn the devices off.
• Do not measure your blood pressure while operating a ve-
hicle or in any situation which requires your full attention.

CAUTION:

• The device should not be used when your arm has been
wounded/injuried or when a catheter has been inserted.
Such use may result in injury.
• Remove any kind of upper arm jewelry or the like before
taking a measurement. This could cause bruises.
• Do not place the arm cuff over heavy clothing (e.g. a jacket
or sweater sleeve) as the blood pressure monitor will not
be able to take a proper measurement and there is an el-
evated danger of acquiring hematoma or skin marks dur-
ing the course of the measurement.
• In case the cuff does not stop inflating, interrupt the mea-
surement by pressing the START/STOP button or push
the touch screen activation switch to OFF and open the
cuff at once.
• If a battery has leaked do not touch the battery fluid. Avoid
skin contact (e.g. put on protective gloves) and clean the
battery compartment with a dry cloth.
• Do not disassemble the unit, it may result in injuries.
• When applying the arm cuff, make sure there are no wrin-
kles in the cuff. This could cause bruises.
• Do not exert any kind of pressure on the tube during mea-
surement, e.g. laying your arms or any other object on the
tube. This could cause incorrect measurements.
• Blood pressure measurements can lead to temporary
marks on the skin at the site of the cuff placement. This is
especially the case in high repetition rates, in hypertonic
patients and in patients with weak pulses. In rare cases
a mark may persist for a couple of days. Please contact
your physician about these specific risks of cuff pressure
in your specific case.
• For hygienic reasons the cuff is intended only for the use
by one person.
