1. Introduction
1.1. Features
The blood pressure monitor is a fully automatic, digital blood pressure measuring device for use on
the wrist. This enables very fast and reliable measurement of systolic and diastolic blood pressures
as well as the pulse frequency by way of the oscillometric measuring method. The device offers a
very high and clinically tested measurement accuracy and has been designed to provide a maximum
of user-friendliness.
Before using, please read through this instruction manual carefully and then keep it in a safe place. For
further questions on the subject of blood pressure and its measurement, please contact your doctor.
Attention!
1.2. Important information about self-measurement
• Do not forget: self-measurement means control, not diagnosis or treatment. Unusual values must
always be discussed with your doctor. Under no circumstances should you alter the dosages of
any drugs prescribed by your doctor.
• The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart pacemakers!
• In cases of cardiac irregularity (Arrhythmia), measurements made with this instrument should
only be evaluated after consultation with the doctor.
• Clinical trials have shown that wrist measurements can reach similar accuracy to upper arm
measurements. However, some individuals may get a different result between both methods.
Therefore, we generally recommend to compare the readings of this device to data obtained by
your doctor. If there is a difference, always consider the variance into your final reading.
Electromagnetic interference
The device contains sensitive electronic components. Therefore, avoid strong electrical or
electromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity of the device (e.g. mobile telephones, microwave cookers).
These can lead to temporary impairment of the measuring accuracy.
