year. Press the Start/Stop button to confirm the selected
year and proceed to setting the date (Figure 2).

off. Then re-insert the batteries and reset the date and time.
When the date/time function is activated, the device continues to display
the time even when it is switched off. The power consumption for this is

The special double-preformed comfort cuff is easy to attach and ensures
a perfect fit during measurement. The materials used are tested for skin
compatibility according to ISO 10993.
• Clear the wrist from all clothing or watches/jewellery since this may
disturb the blood flow in the arm as it may impair the blood pressure
at the place of measurement.
7. Attaching the cuff
Set the month with the Memory button and
confirm this with the Start/Stop button. Set
the day, hours and minutes in the same way
(Figure 2, Figure 3).
• Slide the device onto the centre of the inside
of the forearm, directly on the wrist. The palm
of your hand should be facing upwards. The
distance between the wrist and the upper
edge of the cuff should be 5–10 mm.
• Fasten the cuff using the hook and loop fastening.
The shape of the cuff is optimized to sit very tightly in order to avoid pos-
sible measurement errors.
