Loading the Batteries

a. Open the battery cover at the back of the monitor.
b. Insert four “AAA” batteries, observing correct polarity.
c. Close the battery cover.

If using an external power supply, 
ensure that batteries are removed 
from battery compartment.
For external power supply, use a 
6V600mA DC Adaptor (not 
included in this pack)

Replacing Batteries

When the LCD screen displays ‘low battery’         , new batteries must be inserted 
immediately to ensure accurate results.
Rechargeable batteries with a voltage of 1.2V are not suitable for this product.
Please dispose of batteries according to battery manufacture’s instructions.

Insert the rubber tube plug of  
the cuff firmly into the cuff socket 
located on the side of the monitor
to ensure there is no air leakage.

The cuff should be ready to   
use.  Ensure that the end is 
passed through the metal loop 
and the hook and loop fastening 
is facing outwards.

Non-rechargeable batteries are not to be recharged.
Exhausted batteries are to be removed from the monitor.
The supply terminals are not to be short circuited.
Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries. Do not use 
rechargeable batteries. Only batteries of the same or equivalent type as 
recommended are to be used. Batteries must be handled with care under 
adult supervision. If batteries leak and come into contact with the skin or 
eyes, wash immediately with copious amount of water.
