5.9. Setting the Medication Reminder
This instrument allows you to set two alarm times at which an alarm signal will then
be triggered. This can be a useful aid, for instance as a reminder to take medication
or to remind you to take your blood pressure at the same time each day.
1. To set an alarm time, press the time button (the
instrument must have been switched off beforehand)
and immediately afterwards the "M" button and hold
both down until the bell symbol appears in the bot-
tom left of the display. Then release both buttons.
The flashing "1" in the display indicates that the first
alarm time can now be set.
2. Press the time button to set the hours – the hours
display flashes and pressing the "M" button allows
you to set the alarm hour. To confirm, press the time
button.
3. The minute display will now flash. The minutes can
be set using the "M" button. To confirm, press the
time button again.
4. The bell symbol will now flash. Use the "M" button to
select whether the alarm time is to be active (bell) or
inactive (crossed-out bell). To confirm, press the time
button.
To set a second alarm time, proceed as above but
if the "1" flashes, press the "M" button to select "2"
and confirm with the time button.
• An active alarm time is indicated by the bell symbol
in the display.
• The alarm sounds at the set time every day.
• To switch-off the alarm when it is sounding, press the
START/STOP button.
• To permanently switch-off the alarm, proceed as
above (steps 1-4) and select the crossed-out bell sym-
bol. This will then disappear from the display.
• The alarm times must be re-entered each time the
batteries are replaced.
