The monitor has adopted your data and 
is now ready for taking measurements. 
Pressing the ON/OFF button starts the 
automatic measurement. The cuff inflates 
to approx. 190 mmHg pressure.  

 

The automatic deflation starts the 
measurement. After about 3 seconds, a 
heart icon starts blinking in the LC 
display. If a Korotkoff’s sound is detected 
already at that time, it means a systolic 
pressure of more than 150 mmHg. Then 
the monitor re-inflates (to about 220 
mmHg). 
At the end of the measurement, the result 
is displayed in the LCD and the cuff 
deflates.  

 

Aborting a measurement 

You can stop the measurement at any 
time by pressing the ON/OFF button. The 
BP monitor deflates the cuff instantly.     

 

The memory function 

The KP-6166 saves up to 50 
measurements in every memory area. 
Together with each measurement 
(systolic, diastolic and heart rate), the 
date and time are also saved. The 
measurement with the longest residence 
time in the memory is assigned number 
1. All other measurements increment by 
one until number 50. Then the memory is 
full. The next measurement occupies 
memory location 50. The measurement 
formerly at location 50 changes to 
location 49 (etc., 48

Æ

47 .... 2

Æ

1). The 

oldest measurement formerly at location 
1 is lost. 

 

You can delete the measurements in the 
memory by removing the batteries for at 
least 2 minutes from the BP monitor.

The World Health Organization (WHO) 
recommends medical treatment, when 
the blood pressure value exceeds 
140/90 mmHg. The doctor should also 
be consulted when the blood pressure is 
too low, i.e. when the systolic value 
drops below 105 mmHg and/or the 
diastolic value below 60 mmHg. 

 

Cleaning and maintenance  

 Do not expose the BP monitor to 

extreme temperature, moisture, dust or 
direct sunlight. 

 The cuff contains a sensitive airtight 

bulb. Treat it with care and avoid any 
stress by torsion or kinking. 

 Clean the BP monitor with a soft, dry 

cloth. Do not use fuel, thinner or other 
solvent. Remove specks on the cuff 
carefully with a wet cloth and soap 
water.  

Do not wash the cuff. 

 Do not drop the BP monitor or treat it 

with force.  

 Do not try to open the BP monitor. 

This will make the factory calibration 
invalid.

Troubleshooting and remedies 

If a fault is detected during a 
measurement, the BM monitor displays 
„Err“ and a symbol (code for service 
personnel).  
From many years of experience we know 
that most faults are the consequence of 
wrong use. The most frequent causes of 
faults are excessive movement during the 
measurement, wrong application of the 
cuff, use of wrong batteries or use of a 
rechargeable battery. 
Wait at least 5 minutes before repeating 
the measurement.

Referenced norms 

For registration, a defined number of blood 
pressure monitors was subjected to 
stringent clinical testing. These monitors 
used the same program for blood pressure 
measurement as your monitor uses. Thus, 
this program is also regarded as clinically 
tested. 

 

 

- 8 - 

 

The manufacture of the blood pressure 
monitor complies with the European norms 
for blood pressure monitors: EN 60601-1, 
EN 1060-1 to EN 1060-3. 

 

Electromagnetic compatibility:

  

The blood pressure monitor complies with 
the requirements of European norm EN 
60601-1-2.  
The requirements of EU directive 
93/42/EEC concerning medical devices, 
class IIa are complied with. 

 

Warranty 

We grant a warranty of two years the for 
blood pressure monitor KP-6166. Within 
this period, defects of the BP monitor will 
be repaired free of charge. You can also 
have your BP monitor repaired by our 
customer service after the warranty period. 
We will provide you with a free cost 
estimate for the repair.   
The warranty does not cover damage due 
to improper handling, accident, natural 
wear and tear (cuff), non-compliance with 
the instructions for use or unauthorized 
modifications of the monitor. 
Excluded from the warranty are:  
the packaging, batteries and the 
instructions for use. 

 

Periodic re-calibration 

We recommend periodic checks of the 
pressure indication every 2 years.
