The device frequently
fails to measure, or the
values measured are
too low or high.
. Fit the cuff correctly on the arm.
. Before starting measurement make
sure that clothing is not exerting
pressure on the arm. Take articles of
clothing off if necessary.
Measure blood pressure again in
complete peace and quiet.
Every measurement re-
sults in different values,
although the device
functions normally and
normal values are dis-
played.
Please re-read the clause Measuring
procedure above.
Blood pressure values
differ from those meas-
ured at the doctor’s.
Record daily values and consult your
doctor.
Note
Blood pressure is subject to fluctuations even in healthy peo-
ple. Please remember that comparable blood pressure meas-
urements always require the same time and the same con-
ditions! These are normally quiet conditions. If you follow the
correct procedures described above and still get the fluctuations
of blood pressure of more than 5 mmHg and/or you repeatedly
hear irregular pulse tones please consult your doctor.
