optimal blood pressure, yellow - elevated, orange - too high, red - dangerously high. This 

function helps you to self-orient in the measurement results.

Irregular Heartbeat Detection Technology

An irregular heartbeat is detected when a heartbeat rhythm varies while the unit is meas-

uring the systolic and diastolic blood pressure.During each measurement, the monitor 

records all the pulse intervals and calculate the average ; if there are two or more pulse 

intervals ,the difference between each interval and the average is more than the average 

value of ±25% , or there are four or more pulse intervals ,the difference between each 

interval and the average is more than the average value of ±15%,the irregular heartbeat 

symbol appears on the display when the measurement results are appear.

Multiple Users

2 users can make measurements and store data together. Memory allows up to 60 

results for each user enabling to display average results, which include quite long period

of time. There is no need to write down and store the results on hard copies every time

after measurement.

before using it on older children.

* The device is not intended for patient transport outside a healthcare facility.

* The device is not intended for public use.

* This device is intended for no-invasive measuring and monitoring of arterial blood pressure.

It is not intended for use on extremities other than the arm or for functions other than

obtaining a blood pressure measurement.

* Do not confuse self-monitoring with self-diagnosis. This unit allows you to monitor your blood 

pressure.Do not begin or end medical treatment without asking a physician for treatment advice.

* If you are taking medication,consult your physician to determine the most appropriate 

time to measure your blood pressure. Never change a prescribed medication without 

consulting your physician.

* Do not take any therapeutic measures on the basis of a self measurement. Never alter 

the dose of a medicine prescribed by a doctor. Consult your doctor if you have any ques-

tion about your blood pressure.

* When the device was used to measure patients who have common arrhythmias such 

as atrial or ventricular premature beats or atrial fibrillation, the best result may occur with
