Main Features
A. Self-management function
The device allows you to pre-set your personalized values
of blood pressure which should be recommended or
decided by your physician or medical professional. If the
Systolic or Diastolic rate of the measurement is greater
than your pre-set personalized level, the digit of the
result on the screen will flash to alert. Besides, either the
Systolic or Diastolic rate of the measurement is equal to
or less than your pre-set personalized levels, or you don’t
set the personalized levels, the SMILE FACE symbol will
appear and flash on screen after each measurement
B. IHB Detector
The appearance of this symbol, signifies that a certain
pulse irregularity was detected during the measurement.
Talking, moving, shaking or an irregular pulse during the
measurement can result in the appearance of this icon.
Usually this is not a cause for concern, however if the
symbol appears often, we recommend you seek medical
advice.
And please note that the device does not replace a cardiac
examination, but serves to detect pulse irregularities at
an early stage.
*Note! The irregular heart beat detected record won’t be
stored in memory.
C. Wrist Position Indicator
Keeping wrist at heart level while measuring is extremely
important to get accurate blood pressure values.
The device features a Wrist Position Sensor which
guides you to adjust your posture by the WRIST
DIRECTION INDICATOR symbols shown on screen and
helps to determine your optimal height of the wrist for
measurement.
*Attention! Battery is a hazardous waste. Do not dispose it
together with the household garbage.
