The appearance of the symbol
indicates that certain pulse irregularity is
detected during measurement. This may cause results to vary from your normal
blood pressure levels. In general, this is not a cause for concern. However, if the
symbol appears more frequently than usual, it is recommended that you consult
with your healthcare provider.
If SmartCheck™ measurement mode is used, irregular heartbeat detected during
measurement will not affect results (see section 2.3 for more information).
Note:
The device detects early stage pulse irregularities. It is not a replacement
for cardiac examination.
