Reference to standards
During the certification process, a fixed number of
instruments was subjected to stringent clinical tests. These
instruments used the same program for measuring the
blood pressure as the instrument which is now in your
possession. This instrument is therefore deemed to have
been clinically tested as well.
The instrument has been produced in accordance with the
European standard for blood pressure manometers: EN
60601-1 and EN 1060-1 thru EN 1060-3.
Electromagnetic compatibility:
The instrument satisfies the requirements of the European
standard EN 60601-1-2.
The requirements of EU directive 93/42/EEC for medical
products of class IIa are also met.
Warranty
Our blood pressure monitor has two years’ guarantee. A
defective instrument will be repaired free of charge during
the warranty period. After the warranty period has expired
you can also have a defective instrument repaired by our
Customer Service, for which you will get an estimate in
advance free of charge.
The warranty does not cover any damage that has been
caused by improper use, accidents, wear and tear (cuff),
non-compliance with the instructions for use or if the
instrument has been tampered with. The packaging, the
batteries and these instructions for use are excluded from
the warranty.

The WHO classifies high blood pressure in three degrees
of severity:
optimal blood pressure
below 120/80
normal blood pressure
below 130/85
bordering on hypertonia
below 140/90

st
degree: mild hypertonia
below 160/100
2

degree: moderate hypertonia
below 180/110
3
rd
degree: severe hypertonia
above 180/110
