Setting the alarm clock
The SC 6360 features an alarm clock. The alarm can be
set to ring at three different times in the day. The alarm is
especially helpful it you are required to measure your
blood pressure at specific times (for example 7:00 a.m.,
12:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.) Fig. 1 – 3.

Instructions for measuring the blood pressure
In order to obtain comparable values, always measure the
blood pressure under the same conditions, i.e. in a relaxed
atmosphere, not after the consumption of alcohol, not
during a meal and not after being exposed to physical or
nervous stress.
If possible, make the measurement while being seated
at a
table and only with your left upper arm stripped.
The blood pressure measurement
Put the cuff around your
left
upper arm in such a way that
the tube is directed towards the bend of the elbow, with the
lower cuff edge ending about 2 cm above the bend of the
elbow. Now connect the cuff with the instrument by
plugging the air plug at the tube of the cuff into the socket
on the left side of the instrument.
The cuff should be
reasonably tight.
Start the measurement by pressing the ON/OFF-button.
If you press the ON/OFF-button after the measurement,
the instrument will transfer the values automatically to the
memory.
Premature discontinuation of the measurement
The measurement of the blood pressure can be discontinued
at any time by pressing the ON/OFF-button. The instrument
will then deflate the cuff immediately.

Periodic re-calibration
We recommend re-calibrating the pressure display
regularly every 2 years.
Error messages and disturbances
Should an error occur during a measurement, the word
„Err“ and a symbol (code for Customer Services) will be
displayed.
We know from long-standing experience that a fault has
mainly been provoked by handling the instrument
incorrectly. The most frequent sources of faults are
agitated movements during the measurement, the
incorrect placement of the cuff or the use of the wrong type
of batteries or accumulators.
The measurement should be repeated after 5 min the
earliest.
Disposal instructions
Batteries shall be properly disposed of. Use the relevant
collection bins the battery-selling trade as well as
municipal collecting points provide for this purpose.
Please dispose the instrument properly in a municipal
collection point for disused electrical equipment after the
end of its useful life.

Memory recall and deletion
Memory recall
The blood pressure monitor SC 6360 can store up to 60
sets of memory. To recall the memory, please press the
”MEM Button” under power-off mode first. Then, the
average measurement result will be shown on the LCD
first. After the average reading is shown on the display,
you can press the ”MEM Button” to track historical recards
from number 1 to number 60. Or press ”SET Button” to
track from number 60 to number 1.
Memory deletion
To clear all the memory records, please press ”MEM
Button” and hold it until the screen shows Ctr.
This function only operates under power off mode.
What blood pressure values are normal?
The blood pressure is too high, when the diastolic value
exceeds 90 mmHg and/or the systolic value 160 mmHg in
relaxed conditions.
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends
medical treatment, when the diastolic value exceeds 100
mmHg. The doctor should also be consulted when the
blood pressure is too low, i.e. when the systolic value
drops below 105 mmHg and/or the diastolic value below
60 mmHg.
