Please read these instructions for use carefully and keep them for
later use, be sure to make them accessible to other users and ob-
serve the information they contain.
1. Getting to know your instrument
The wrist blood pressure monitor is used for non-invasive measure-
ment and monitoring of adults’ arterial blood pressure.
You can use it to measure your blood pressure quickly and easily,
storing the results and displaying the progression of readings. A
warning is issued for anyone suffering from cardiac arrhythmia.
The values determined are classified and graphically evaluated ac-
cording to WHO guidelines.
Keep these instructions carefully for further use and also let other
users have access to them.
2. Important information
Advice on use
• Always measure your blood pressure at the same time of day, in
order to ensure that values are comparable.
• Relax for approx. 5 minutes before each measurement.
• You should wait five minutes before measuring a second time.
• The readings that you take may only be used for information
purposes – they are not a substitute for a medical examination!
Discuss your results with the doctor. Never use them to make
medical decisions independently (e.g. regarding medication and
dosage thereof).
• If circulation on one arm is restricted as a result of chronic or acute
vascular disease (including vasoconstriction), the precision of any
wrist measure ment is impaired. In this case, use a blood pressure
monitor for the upper arm.
• There may be incorrect measurements where there is cardiocircu-
latory disease, as well as with very low blood pressure, circulatory
disorders, dysrhythmia and other preexisting diseases.
• Only use the instrument on persons whose wrist has the right
circumference for the instrument.
• You may only operate the blood pressure monitor with batteries.
Note that it is only possible to save data when your blood pres-
sure monitor is receiving power. As soon as the batteries are dead,
the date and time on the blood pressure monitor are lost. Any
measurement results that have been stored are however retained.
• The automatic switch-off function switches off the blood pressure
monitor in order to preserve the batteries, if no button is pressed
within one minute.
