67
• The pulse oximeter does not have an alarm function and is therefore not suitable for
evaluating medical results.
• Do not self-diagnose or self-medicate on the basis of the measurements without
consulting your doctor. In particular, do not start taking any new medication or
change the type and/or dosage of any existing medication without prior approval.
• Do not look directly inside the housing during the measurement. The red light and
the invisible infra-red light in the pulse oximeter are harmful to your eyes.
• This device is not intended for use by people (including children) with restricted
physical, sensory or mental skills or a lack of experience and/or a lack of knowl-
edge, unless they are supervised by a person who has responsibility for their safety
or they receive instructions from this person on how to use the device. Supervise
children around the device to ensure they do not play with it.
• The displays for the pulse wave and pulse bar do not allow the strength of the pulse
or circulation to be evaluated at the measurement site. Rather, they are exclusively
used to display the current visual signal variation at the measurement site and do
not enable reliable diagnostics for the pulse.
Non-observance of the following instructions can lead to incorrect or failed measure-
ments.
• There must not be any nail varnish, artificial nails or other cosmetics on the finger to
be measured.
