Select the measuring mode: standard or AFIBsens TM mode

measurement) or AFIBsens TM / MAM mode (automatic triple
measurement).

AFIBsens
TM
/ MAM mode, slide this switch upwards to position
«3».
AFIBsens
TM
/ MAM mode (highly recommended)
In AFIBsens TM / MAM mode, 3 measurements are automatically
taken in succession and the result is then automatically analysed
and displayed. Because blood pressure constantly fluctuates, a
result determined in this way is more reliable than one produced
by a single measurement. AFIB detection is only activated in
AFIBsens TM / MAM mode.
• When you select the 3 measurements, the MAM-symbol
BP
appears in the display.
• The bottom, right hand section of the display shows a 1, 2 or 3 to
indicate which of the 3 measurements is currently being taken.
• There is a break of 15 seconds between the measurements
(15 seconds are adequate according to «Blood Pressure
Monitoring, 2001, 6:145-147» for oscillometric instruments). A
count down indicates the remaining time.
• The individual results are not displayed. Your blood pressure
will only be displayed after all 3 measurements are taken.
• Do not remove the cuff between measurements.
• If one of the individual measurements was questionable, a
fourth one is automatically taken.
