4. PREPARATION BEFORE TAKING MEASUREMENT
4.2 Things to know Before taking Measurement
To assure accurate measurement, please observe the following:
Ÿ
Make sure that electrodes are directly in contact with your skin.
Ÿ
If your skin or hands are dry, moisten your skin with damp cloth before taking
measurement.
Ÿ
If the electrodes are dirty, use a soft cloth or a cotton swab moistened with
disinfectant alcohol to clean dirt from the surface.
Ÿ
During the measurement, do not touch your body with the hand with which you are
taking the measurement.
Ÿ
Make sure there is no skin contact between your right and left hand (measuring
method C), or between your hand and chest (measuring methods A/B). Otherwise, the
measurement cannot be taken correctly.
5.1 Operation Procedure
There are three different methods of taking the measurement. Start with measurement
method A, “right index finger-chest.” If this method does not deliver measurements, or
delivers only unstable measurements (“EE” is frequently displayed), switch to method B
“left index finger-chest” and, if necessary, to method C”left hand-right hand.”
The most suitable method/ procedure depends on the heart configuration (shape of the
heart) of each individual user. If it is not possible to take stable measurements using a
given measurement method, this could have a harmless cause such as the shape of the
heart. However, the cause may also be an illness or disease.
Measurement method C offers maximum comfort, but offers a much lower measurement
stability than methods A or B.
Press the on/ off button for about three seconds to turn the device on. The device shows
the full display.
ATTENTION
If segments are missing, stop using the device and immediately contact customer services.
To test whether the full display is completely displayed, hold the On/Off button when
switching on the device.
