If a measuring error has occurred, this is indicated by or .Please refer to
the instructions.
When you press the ON/OFF (O/I) but-
ton, all the symbols on the display light
up briefly. This serves to check the dis-
play. Then all the symbols go out and
the air release symbol (

flash. When the symbol (
) appears,
the monitor is ready and
begins the
measurement.

PULSE/min
Your blood pressure is measured during
inflation, so it is important not to move.
Sit still and do not move your wrist! Do
not talk! Do not touch the monitor while
it is measuring.
The monitor inflates the cuff and the
measurement is taken within approx.
30 seconds.
Once the arrow appears in the display the
measurement is finished and deflation of
the cuff takes place.
After this the systolic and diastolic blood
pressure is shown, alternating with the
pulse reading. This reading will be stored
in the memory.

Measurement of blood pressure is now complete. Press the O/I button to
turn power off.
Should you forget to turn off the power, it will turn itself off automatically after
2 minutes. The previous reading will remain in the memory even if the batteries
run down or are replaced.

If you wish to repeat the measurement, you should remove the cuff for at least
3 minutes because if you take the next measurement immediately, a slight blood
congestion may occur wich can lead to incorrect measurements or an error
message.
Keep a record of your measurements. In this way both you and your doctor will
have an accurate overview of your blood pressure situation.
Wrist blood pressure is measured at the different region from the usual brachial
blood pressure measurement and may show slightly different value. In many
cases, the difference between the wrist and the brachial blood pressures can be
up to –10 mmHg both for the systolic and the diastolic pressures for the healthy
people.
