ment that is out of range, either Systolic or Diastolic, will

The appearance of this symbol, , signifies that a certain pulse
irregularity was detected during the measurement. Talking, moving,
shaking or an irregular pulse during the measurement can result in
the appearance of this icon. Usually this is not a cause for concern,
however if the symbol appears often, we recommend you seek med-
ical advice. The device does not replace a cardiac examination, but
serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.
