mended position of the measuring

You have reached the recommended
position of the measuring device at
heart level and can start the measure-
ment by pressing the START/STOP
button .
In the vast majority of use cases, the position indicator pro-
vides an excellent guide as to whether the measuring device
is at heart level. Due to physical differences such as size and/
or physique on the user side, this function may not be helpful
in all cases. If you feel that the wrist position according to the
position indicator does not match the level of the heart, use
your own judgement. You can also start the measurement in
these cases at any time by pressing the START/STOP but-
ton .
Selecting the user
This device has 2 user memories with 120 memory spaces
each in order that you can save measurements from 2 differ-
ent people separately from each other.
If multiple people are using the device, make sure that the
relevant user is set before each measurement.
Please refer to the section “Adjusting the settings” for infor-
mation on how to select the desired user.
