1.2. Important information about self-measurement
Self-measurement means control, not diagnosis or treatment. Your values must always be dis-
cussed with your physician. You should never alter the dosages of any medication without direc-
tion from your physician.
The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart pacemakers!!
In cases of irregular heartbeat, measurements made with this instrument should
only be evaluated after consultation with your doctor.
Electromagnetic Interference: This device contains sensitive electronic components. Avoid
strong electrical or electromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity of the device (e.g. mobile tele-
phones, microwave ovens, etc.). These can lead to temporary impairment of the monitor’s meas-
uring accuracy.
