The
National High Blood Pressure Education Program Coordinating
Committee
has developed a blood pressure standard, classifying blood
pressure ranges into 4 stages.
(Ref. The Seventh Report of the Joint Na-
tional Committee on Prevention, Detection,
Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood
Pressure-Complete Report JNC-7, 2004).
This blood pressure classification are based
on historical data, and may not be directly
applicable to any particular patient. It is
important that you consult with your physi-
cian regularly. Your physician will tell you
your normal blood pressure range as well
as the point at which you will be considered
at risk. For reliable monitoring and refer-
ence of blood pressure, keeping long- term
records is recommended. Please download
the blood pressure log at
www.rossmaxhealth.com.
Attention:
Consult the accompanying documents. Please read this manual
carefully before use. For specific information on your own blood
pressure, contact your physician. Please be sure to keep this
manual.
Blood pressure measurements determined with AC701k are equivalent to
those obtained by a trained observer using cuff/stethoscope auscultation
method, within the limits prescribed by the American National Standard, Elec-
tronic or Automated Sphygmomanometers. This unit is to be used by adult
consumers in a home environment. Do not use this device on infants or neo-
nates. AC701k is protected against manufacturing defects by an established
International Warranty Program. For warranty information, you can contact
the manufacturer, Rossmax International Ltd.
1. Introduction
3. Digital Korotkoff Sound (DK) Technology
4. Preliminary Remarks
Digital Korotkoff Sound (DK) Technology is a combination of the Oscil-
lometric Method and Korotkoff Sound Method. Supported with an ad-
vanced dual-sensor cuff system (built-in pressure sensor plus sound sen-
sor), the Rossmax DK Technology offers accurate analysis to the oscillation
and K-sound, which perfectly integrates the convenience of Oscillometric
Method and the expertise of the clinically trusted Korotkoff Sound Meth-
od.
This Blood Pressure Monitor complies with the European regulations and
bears the CE mark “CE 0366”. The quality of the device has been veri-
fied and conforms to the provisions of the EC council directive 93/42/EEC
dated 14 June 1993 concerning medical devices:
EN 1060-1: 1995/A1: 2002 Non-invasive sphygmomanometers
- Part 1 - General requirements
EN 1060-3: 1997/A2: 2009 Non-invasive sphygmomanometers
- Part 3 - Supplementary requirements for electro-mechanical blood pres-
sure measuring systems
EN 1060-4: 2004 Non-invasive sphygmomanometers
- Part 4: Test Procedures to determine the overall system accuracy of auto
-
mated non-invasive sphygmomanometers.
This blood pressure monitor was designed for long service time. To ensure
continued accuracy, it’s recommended that all digital blood pressure mon-
itors require re-calibration. This monitor (under normal usage with approx.
3 measurements a day) does not require re-calibration for 2 years. Once
the unit should be re-calibrated the device will display
.
The unit should also be re-calibrated if the monitor sustains
damage due to blunt force (such as dropping) or exposure
to fluids and / or extreme hot or cold temperature / humid
-
ity changes. When
appears, simply return to your nearest
dealer for re-calibration service.
7. Display Explanations
Blood pressure fluctu
-
ates all the time!
You should not be overly
worried if you encoun-
tered two or three meas-
urements at high levels.
Blood pressure changes
over the month and even
throughout the day. It is
also influenced by season
and temperature.

11. Installing Batteries
1. Press down and lift the battery cover in the direction of the arrow to
open the battery compartment.
2. Install or replace 4 “AA” sized batteries in the battery compartment
according to the indications inside the compartment.
3. Replace the battery cover by clicking in the bottom hooks first, then
push in the top end of the battery cover.
4. Replace the batteries in pairs. Remove batteries when unit is not in use
for extended periods of time.
You need to replace the batteries when
1. low battery icon appears on display.
2. the START/STOP key is pressed and nothing appears on display.
Caution
1. Batteries are hazardous waste. Do not dispose them together with the
household garbage.
2. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Batteries or damage from old
batteries are not covered by warranty.
3. Use exclusively brand batteries. Always replace with new batteries to-
gether. Use batteries of the same brand and same type.

2. Name/Function of Each Part
1. Unwrap the arm cuff, leaving the end of the cuff through the D-ring of
the cuff.
2. Put your left arm through the cuff loop. The color strip indication should be
positioned closer to you with the tube pointing in the direction of your arm
(Fig. 1). Turn your left palm upward and place the edge of the arm cuff at
approximately 1.5 to 2.5 cm above the inner side of the elbow joint (Fig. 2).
Tighten the cuff by pulling the end of the cuff.
3. Center the tube over the middle of the arm. Press the hook and loop mate-
rial together securely. Allow room for 2 fingers to fit between the cuff and
your arm. Position the artery mark (Ø) over the
main artery (on the inside of your arm) (Fig. 3,4).
Note:
Locate the main artery by pressing with
2 fingers approximately 2 cm above the bend
of your elbow on the inside of your left arm.
The National High Blood Pressure Education Program Coordinating Com-
mittee has developed a blood pres-
sure standard, classifying blood
pressure ranges into 4 stages.
This unit is equipped with innova-
tive blood pressure risk indicator,
which visually indicates the as-
sumed risk level (prehypertension /
stage 1 hypertension / stage 2 hy
-
pertension) of the result after each
measurement.
This unit is equipped with an Irregular
Heartbeat Detector (IHB) which allows
those who have an irregular heartbeat to
obtain accurate measurements alerting the
user of the presence of an irregular heart
beat during the measurement.
Note:
It is strongly recommended that you
consult your physician if the IHB icon
(
) appears often.
