Potential cause and remedy
During the measurement, error
signals were detected by the cuff,
caused for instance by movement
or muscle tension. Repeat the
measurement, keeping your arm
still.
No adequate pressure can be
generated in the cuff. A leak may
have occurred. Check that the cuff
is correctly connected and is not too
loose. Repeat the measurement.
The measuring signals are invalid
and therefore no result can be
displayed.
Read through the checklist for
performing reliable measurements
and then repeat the measurement.*
The pressure in the cuff is too
high (over
299
mmHg) OR the
pulse is too high (over 200 beats
per minute). Relax and repeat the
