• Risk to the patient •
Cancel the measurement with the
Start/Stop
button
, if the cuff remains inflated for more
than approx. 2 minutes.
Take off the cuff if it remains inflated after

the tube has been disconnected.
Further measurements should only be carried
out after the cuff has been correctly attached
again.

Important measurement information
It is recommended to operate the unit in the IMT mode. This considerably shortens the measurement
time of a single measurement and thus offers a greatly increased comfort with significantly reduced
stress on the patient.
If the IMT mode not selected then the device will inflate the cuff to approx. 160 mmHg (starting
pressure). For subsequent measurements, the inflation pressure will be 25mmHg above the last
measured systolic value (minimum 120mmHg).
If the measurement value is in excess of the inflation pressure, then additional inflation of 50 mmHg will
take place.
A manual measurement can be taken at any time between automatic measurements. This will be
indicated by '+' in the measurement value table.
After an incorrect measurement, the measurement will be repeated after 2 minutes. An error message
is only displayed in the error table with its corresponding error code after 3 incorrect measurements.
After the error messages 'E04' (Empty battery/rechargeable battery), 'E07' (Inflation time finished) and
'E10' (400 measurements carried out), the measurement will not be repeated. After error message 'E07',
the subsequent measurement will again take place according to the selected measurement cycle.
After error messages 'E04' and 'E10' have been displayed, the device will switch to a power-saving
mode, in order to avoid complete discharge of the rechargeable batteries. This mode can only be
cancelled by switching the device on and off.
