3. Important instructions for use
The measurement results of automated blood pressure monitors
can be influenced by the measuring location, posture, previous
exertion and general physical condition. Please pay attention to
the usage information in order to obtain accurate readings.
• Do not consume alcohol, caffeine or smoke for at least one
hour before measuring.
• Rest for at least 5 minutes before taking the measurement.
Depending on the previous degree of exertion, you may even
need to rest for up to an hour.
• Expose the wrist. Under no circumstances may clothes hinder
the blood flow to or from the arm, as this affects the blood
pressure at the measuring point and can lead to incorrect
readings.
• Breath slowly and deeply. Do not hold your breath.
• Check the display for irregular pulse signals. If required, re-
peat the measurement when conditions have improved.
• In order to exclude side differences and to obtain compara-
ble measurement results, it is important to always take the
measurement on the same arm. Ask your doctor which side it
is advisable for you to measure.
• Always take your daily blood pressure measurements at
around the same time.
• Do not move or talk during measuring.

• Blood pressure is not a fixed value. It can go up or down by
more than 20 mmHg in patients within a few minutes.
Insert the batteries provided into the device.
4. Initial operation of the device
The device has a date/time function that can be activated as re-
quired (see page 40). This function is deactivated on delivery.
When the date/time function is activated, the measurement re-
sults are saved along with their date and time. This can make it
easier to view the readings at a later point.
