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 elevated danger of
acquiring hematoma or skin marks during the course of the
measurement.
In case the cuff does not stop inflating, interrupt the
measurement by pressing the ON/OFF button and open the cuff
at once.
When applying the cuff, make sure there are no wrinkles in the
cuff as this could cause bruises.
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 heart rates. In rare cases a mark may persist
for couple of days. Please contact your physician about these
specific risks of cuff pressure in your specific case.
Do not exert any kind of pressure on the hose during
measurement, e.g. laying your arms or any other object on
the hose. This could cause incorrect measurements.
The device is designed and manufactured for a long service life.
However it is generally recommended to have the monitor
inspected every 2 years to ensure proper functioning and
accuracy. Please contact your dealer for maintenance.
Do not drop or insert any object into any openings or hoses. This
may damage the unit.
Do not press the buttons with excessive force or with pointed
objects.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Do not wrap the cuff around body parts other than your upper
left arm. Misuse represents a risk to your health.
Packaging materials are a deadly hazard for children and can
cause suffocation. Remove all packaging materials
immediately and keep them away from children at all times.
Proper cuff size is important for accurate measurements. Only
use the device on adults who have the right
upper arm circumference for this unit. See “TECHNICAL
SPECIFICATION” for suitable arm circumferences.
Batteries should not be charged or reactivated by any other
means. The batteries may explode.
Take extra precaution to keep a leaking battery away from fire
as there is a risk of ignition or explosion.
Do not use any cuffs and accessories other than those
explicitly recommended by the manufacturer for use with this
product. Cuffs and accessories not approved for use with this
device may cause damage to your health and to the product.
The tubing presents a strangulation hazard. Keep this product
away from children and those who require close supervision,
e.g. people with mental disorders.
Do not drape tube around neck. This presents a strangulation
hazard.
Remove any kind of arm jewellery or the like before taking a
measurement. This could cause bruises.
When storing the device, make sure that no heavy objects are
placed on top of it.
