The measurement results are displayed, until you switch the device
off. If no button is pressed for 5 minutes, the device switches auto-
matically off, to save the batteries.
d) When the unit is set to
Average Mode
setting
generally 3 separate measure-
ments will take place in succession and
calculates your detected blood pressure
value. There will be 35 seconds resting
time in-between each measurement. A
count down indicates the remaining time
and a beep will sound 5 seconds before the
2nd and 3rd readings will begin.
In case that the single data of each cycle differ too much from
each other, a fourth measurement is performed before the re-
sult will be displayed. In rare cases the blood pressure is such
unstable that even after four measurements the data vary too
much. In this case „ERR 6“ is shown and no result can be given.
If one of measurement causes an error message it is repeated.
5.5. Discontinuing a measurement
If it is necessary to interrupt a blood
pressure measurement for any reason
(e.g. the patient feels unwell), the 0/I
button can be pressed at any time. The
device then immediately lowers the
cuff-pressure automatically.
