Cautions
(Cautions indicate a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
may result in minor or moderate injury to the user or patient or damage to
the equipment or other property.)
• Stop using this monitor and consult with your physician if you
experience skin irritation or discomfort.
• Consult with your physician before using this monitor on an arm where
intravascular access or therapy, or an arterio-venous (A-V) shunt, is
present because of temporary interference to blood flow which could
result in injury.
• Consult with your physician before using this monitor if you have had a
mastectomy.
• Consult with your physician before using this monitor if you have severe
blood flow problems or blood disorders as cuff inflation can cause
bruising.
• DO NOT take blood pressure measurements more often than necessary
because bruising, due to blood flow interference, may occur.
• ONLY inflate the arm cuff when it is applied on your upper arm.
• Remove the arm cuff if it does not start deflating during a blood
pressure measurement.
• When the monitor malfunctions, it may get hot. DO NOT touch the
monitor if it occurs.
• DO NOT use this monitor for any purpose other than measuring blood
pressure and/or recording an ECG.
• During a blood pressure measurement and/or an ECG recording, make
sure that no mobile device or any other electrical device that emits
electromagnetic fields, other than the smartphone to be used with the
monitor, is within 30 cm of this monitor. This may result in incorrect
operation of the monitor and/or cause inaccurate blood pressure
readings and/or ECG recordings.
• DO NOT disassemble or attempt to repair this monitor or other
components. This may cause inaccurate blood pressure readings and/or
ECG recordings.
• DO NOT use in a location where there is moisture or a risk of water
splashing this monitor. This may damage this monitor.
