WARNING: Measuring too frequently may result in circulatory
disorders, which can cause unpleasant sensations such as
localised bleeding under the skin or temporary numbness in
your arm. These symptoms do not usually last long; however, if
you have not recovered quickly, consult your physician.
WARNING: Take into consideration the electromagnetic
compatibility of the unit (e.g. disruptions to the power supply,
radio frequency interference, etc.) Only use the unit indoors.
To avoid inaccurate results due to electromagnetic interference
between electrical and electronic equipment, do not use the unit
near mobile phones or microwave ovens. Keep devices whose
maximum power exceeds 2 W at least 11 feet (3.3 meters) from
the blood pressure monitor.
WARNING: Verify the accuracy of the blood pressure monitor
every two years. Contact an authorized agent or laboratory for
inspection / calibration service.
WARNING: If using the AC adapter, unplug the device when not
in use.
OPERATION PREPARATION
1. Do not conduct any measurements if the temperature is low (below
41°F / 5°C) or high (over 104°F / 40°C), or if the relative humidity
is beyond the range of 15% to 90%, as this can lead to inaccurate
readings.
2. Take the measurement at room temperature in a quiet and stress-
free environment.
3. Do not move yourself or the unit during the measurement. Do not
speak during the measurement.
4. Blood pressure varies naturally depending on the time of day and is
affected by many factors. Blood pressure is usually highest at work
and reaches its lowest level during sleep.
5. Blood pressure measurements should be assessed by a physician
or trained healthcare professional who is familiar with your medical
history. If you use the unit and regularly record the results, keep your
physician informed of any changes in your blood pressure.
6. The performance of this device can be affected as severe
arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature beats or atrial
fibrillation are presented during measurement.
