Troubleshooting
A
“LOW” INDICATION
“Low” indication displays when pressurization
is not enough. It is recommended to pressurize
30–40 mmHg higher than expected systolic.
If you see the LOW sign, keep pumping to
higher number.
Make sure the tubes are
connected properly using the site window.
B
DIFFICULT PRESSURIZATION
Elemano may have a clogged air filter in
inflation bulb or there may be deterioration in
the bulb. In case of a clogged air filter, it
needs to be cleaned (refer to the Instructions
Manual, page E-18). If the inflation bulb has
deteriorated, replace it with a new bulb.
