Precautions for measuring the ECG
•
Make sure your wrist is not too dry when measuring your ECG. You can get a more
accurate ECG signals when your skin that comes in contact with the sensor is moist
with a moderate amount of sweat, toner, or lotion.
•
Do not measure your ECG if you have an implanted cardiac pacemaker, defibrillator,
or if any other electronic device is inside of your body.
•
If you are pregnant, the results may not be accurate when you take your ECG.
•
Do not take your ECG with the Samsung Health Monitor app if you have arrhythmia,
unless it is because of atrial fibrillation.
•
The Samsung Health Monitor app cannot detect heart attacks. If you have any
suspicious symptoms, contact emergency services immediately.
Starting to measure the blood pressure
Presetting before measuring the blood pressure
Enter your profile on the Samsung Health Monitor app and calibrate your Watch before
measuring your blood pressure. If you do not enter a profile, you cannot measure your blood
pressure, and if you do not calibrate the Watch or have someone else calibrate it, the readings
will be invalid.
Be sure to calibrate the Watch with cuff-typed blood pressure manometer when
measuring your blood pressure for the first time after purchasing the Watch. Afterwards,
recalibrate it every 28 days. The cuff-typed blood pressure manometer is sold
separately.
