4. Appearance of the Heart Arrhythmia Indicator for
early Detection
This symbol AM indicates that certain pulse irregularities were
detected during the measurement. In this case, the result may
deviate from your normal blood pressure – repeat the measure-
ment. In most cases, this is no cause for concern. However, if the
symbol appears on a regular basis (e.g. several times a week with
measurements taken daily) we advise you to tell your doctor.
Please show your doctor the following explanation:
5. Data Memory
At the end of each measurement, this instrument automatically
stores the result.
Viewing the stored values

AR
briefly, when the instrument is switched
off. The display first shows the last stored result.
Pressing the M-button again displays the previous value. Pressing
the M-button repeatedly enables you to move from one stored

6. Replacing the Slot-in Card
You can replace the slot-in card 3 by pulling it out to the side, as
shown in Fig. IV and replacing the paper insert.
It may be helpful to have your doctor note down the medication
dosage or an emergency telephone number on the card. Extra
cards are supplied with the instrument for this purpose.
7. Battery Indicator and Battery change
Low battery
When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol
AO will flash as soon as the instrument is switched on (partly filled
battery displayed). Although the instrument will continue to
measure reliably, you should obtain replacement batteries.
Flat battery – replacement
When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol AO will flash as
soon as the instrument is switched on (flat battery displayed). You
cannot take any further measurements and must replace the
batteries.
9. During the measurement, the heart symbol AN flashes in the
display and a beep sounds every time a heartbeat is
detected.
10. The result, comprising the systolic AT and the diastolic AK
blood pressure and the pulse AL is displayed and longer beep
is heard. Note also the explanations on further displays in
this booklet.
11. When the measurement has finished, remove the cuff and
pack it into the instrument as shown in Fig. II .
12. Enter the result in the enclosed blood pressure pass and
switch off the instrument. (The monitor does switch off auto-
matically after approx. 1 min.).
)
You can stop the measurement at any time by pressing the
ON/OFF button (e.g. if you feel uneasy or an unpleasant
pressure sensation).
Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the
Arrhythmia indicator
This instrument is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that
also analyses pulse frequency during measurement. The instru-
ment is clinically tested.
The arrhythmia symbol is displayed after the measurement, if
pulse irregularities occur during measurement. If the symbol
appears more frequently (e.g. several times per week on
measurements performed daily) we recommend the patient to
seek medical advice.
The instrument does not replace a cardiac examination, but
serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.

When the memory has stored 30 results, the memory is full.
From this point onwards, a new measured value is stored by
overwriting the oldest value .

All memory data are cleared when batteries are taken out of
the instrument.
