• The device has a safety mechanism built in to prevent pressure from rising above 300 mmHg. If
this safety mechanism fails or pressurization fails to stop while measuring, disconnect the AI
pulse wave sensor unit or cuff, or unplug the air tube from the blood pressure monitor itself.
• Peripheral nerve damage might result.
• Do not apply a cuff or use the AI pulse wave measurement unit on an arm being transfused or
injected with an intravenous injection.
• Intravenous injection or transfusion cannot be performed properly.
• Do not use this device on patients who cannot clearly describe their pain.
• It may cause injury to the user if cuff pressurization release stops or pulse wave sensor
pressure release is delayed.
• Do not use this device during an MRI scan.
• It might cause an accident.
• If a power outage occurs while the device is measuring, promptly detach the cuff and pulse wave
sensor unit.
• Injury may result when pressing the wrist for a long period.
