Advice on use
• In order to ensure comparable values, always measure your blood
pressure at the same time of day.
• Before every measurement, relax for about five minutes.
• If you want to perform several measurements on the same person,
wait five minutes between each measurement.
• Do not take a measurement within 30 minutes after eating, drin-
king, smoking or exercising.
• Repeat the measurement if you are unsure of the measured value.
• The measurements taken by you are for your information only –
they are not a substitute for a medical examination! Discuss the
measurements with your doctor, and never base any medical
decisions on them (e.g. medicines and their administration)!
• Do not use the blood pressure monitor on newborns, pregnant
women or patients with preeclampsia.
• In the case of restricted circulation on the arm as a result of chro-
nic or acute vascular diseases (including vascular constriction),
the accuracy of the wrist measurement is limited. In this case you
should avoid using an upper arm blood pressure monitor.
• Cardiovascular diseases may lead to incorrect measurements or
have a detrimental effect on measurement accuracy. The same
also applies to very low blood pressure, diabetes, circulatory dis-
orders and arrhythmias as well as chills or shaking.
• The blood pressure monitor must not be used in connection with a
high-frequency surgical unit.
• Only use the unit on people who have the specified wrist measure-
ment for the device.
• Please note that when inflating, the functions of the limb in questi-
on may be impaired.
• During the blood pressure measurement, blood circulation must
not be stopped for an unnecessarily long time. If the device mal-
functions, remove the cuff from the arm.
• Do not allow sustained pressure in the cuff or frequent measure-
ments. The resulting restriction of the blood flow may cause injury.
• Ensure that the cuff is not placed on an arm in which the arteries
or veins are undergoing medical treatment, e.g. intravascular ac-
cess or therapy, or an arteriovenous (AV) shunt.
• Do not use the cuff on people who have undergone a mastectomy.
• Do not place the cuff over wounds as this may cause further injury.
• The blood pressure monitor can only be operated with batteries.
