value although the instrument functions
normally and the values displayed are
normal
listed under «Common sources of error». Repeat the
measurement.
Please note: Blood pressure fluctuates continually so
successive measurements will show some variability.
Blood pressure measured differs from
those values measured by the doctor.

Record the daily development of the values and
consult your doctor. Please note: Individuals visiting
their doctor frequently experience anxiety which can
result in a higher reading at the doctor than obtained
at home under resting conditions.

Care and Maintenance, Recalibration
a)
Do not expose the device to extreme temperatures, humidity, dust or direct sunlight.
b) The cuff contains a sensitive air-tight bubble. Handle this carefully and avoid all types of
straining through twisting or buckling.
c) Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use petrol, thinners or similar solvent. Spots
on the cuff can be removed carefully with a damp cloth and soapsuds. The cuff must not be
washed!
d) Do not drop the instrument or treat it roughly in any way. Avoid strong vibrations.
e) Never open the device! Otherwise the manufacturer calibration becomes invalid!
Periodical recalibration
Sensitive measuring devices must from time to time be checked for accuracy.
We therefore recommend a periodical inspection of the static pressure display every 2 years. Your
specialist dealer would be pleased to provide more extensive information about this.
