5.6. Discontinuing a measurement
If it is necessary to interrupt a blood pressure measurement for any reason (e.g., the
patient feels unwell), the START/STOP button can be pressed at any time. The device
then immediately lowers the cuff pressure automatically and enters sleep mode.
5.7. Setting the medication reminder
This instrument allows you to set two alarm times at which an alarm signal will then
be triggered. This can be a useful aid, for instance as a reminder to take medication or
to remind you to take your blood pressure at the same time each day.
1. To set an alarm time, press the TIME button (the instrument
must have been switched off beforehand), and immediately
afterwards the "M" button, and hold both down until the bell
symbol appears in the bottom left of the display. Then release
both buttons. The flashing "1" in the display indicates that the
first alarm time can now be set.
2. Press the TIME button to set the hours – the hours display
flashes and pressing the "M" button allows you to set the alarm
hour. To confirm, press the TIME button.
3. The minute display will now flash. The minutes can be set using
the "M" button. To confirm, press the TIME button again.
4. The bell symbol will now flash. Use the "M" button to select
whether the alarm time is to be active (bell) or inactive (crossed-
out bell). To confirm, press the TIME button.
To set a second alarm time, proceed as above but if the "1" flashes,
press the "M" button to select "2" and confirm with the TIME
button.
• An active alarm time is indicated by the bell symbol in the display.
• The alarm sounds at the set time every day.
• To switch off the alarm when it is sounding, press the START/STOP button.
• To permanently switch off the alarm, proceed as above (steps 1-4) and select the
crossed-out bell symbol. This will then disappear from the display.
• The alarm times must be re-entered each time the batteries are replaced.
