1.2 Important information about self-measurement

The blood pressure monitor is intended to measure and monitor your
blood pressure levels. It is not intended to diagnose and/or treat any
medical condition or disease. Please consult with your healthcare provider
if you experience unusual readings. Under no circumstances should you
alter the dosage of any medication prescribed by your doctor.

The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart
pacemakers.

For cardiac irregularity (irregular heartbeat), measurements obtained with
this device should only be evaluated in consultation with your doctor.
Electromagnetic interference:
The device contains sensitive electronic components (microcomputer). Therefore,
avoid strong electrical or electromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity of the device
(For example: mobile phones, microwaves). These can lead to the temporary
impairment of measurement accuracy.
Chapter 2 Important information about blood pressure and its
measurement
2.1 How does high blood pressure arise?
Blood pressure and heart rate are controlled by the lower portion of the
brainstem called medulla oblongata. Blood pressure is dynamic and responds to
respective situation by way of feedback mechanism via the nervous system. To
adjust for blood pressure, the strength and frequency of the heart (pulse), as well
as the width of circulatory blood vessels respond by changing. The latter is
affected by way of fine muscles in the blood vessel walls. The level of arterial
blood pressure changes periodically during the heart activity: During blood
ejection (Systole), the value is maximal (systolic blood pressure value); at the end
