Other possible errors and their solutions
If problems occur when using the device, the following points
should be checked and, if necessary, the corresponding
measures are to be taken:
Malfunction Remedy
1. Check batteries for the
correct polarity.
2. If the display is unusual,
remove the batteries and
exchange them for new ones.
Check the connection of the
cuff tube and connect properly.
1. Check the cuff position
2. Measure blood pressure
again in peace and quiet,
carefully following the
details in Section 5.
The display remains blank
when the instrument is
switched on although the
batteries are in place.
The pressure does not rise
although the pump is running.
The device frequently fails to
measure blood pressure values
or the values measured are too
low or high.
Please read the following
information and points listed
in Section 5.2
"Common
sources of error." Repeat the
measurement.
Please note: Blood pressure
fluctuates continually so
successive measurements
will show some variability.
Record the daily development
of the measured values and
consult your doctor.
Please note: Individuals
visiting their doctor
frequently experience
anxiety which can result in
a higher reading than at
home under resting
conditions.
1. Check cuff connections.
2. Ensure the unit has not been
tampered with.
Every measurement results in a
different value, although the
device functions normally and
normal values are displayed.
Blood pressure values differ
from those measured by my
doctor.
After the instrument has inflat-
ed the cuff the pressure falls
very slowly, or not at all. (No
reasonable measurement
possible.)
