• Rest for approx. 5 minutes before each measurement. Otherwise there may be di -
vergences.
• You can perform the measurement either sitting or lying down. Always make sure that
the cuff is on a level with your heart.
• To carry out a blood pressure measurement, make sure you are sitting comfortably
with your arms and back leaning on something. Do not cross your legs. Place your
feet flat on the ground.
• In order not to distort the result, it is important to keep still during the measurement
and not talk.
Select memory
Press the SET button. Select the desired storage space by pressing the -/+ function
buttons. You have 4 memories with 30 spaces each to store the measurements of 4
different people separately or to separate measurements taken in the morning and at
night. Confirm your selection with the button .
Measuring blood pressure
• Put on the cuff as described previously and assume the position in which you want to
carry out the measurement.
• Start the measurement by holding the button . After checking the display, during which
all numbers light up, the cuff pumps up automatically. Whilst the cuff is pumping up, the
device already calculates measurements for estimating the necessary pump pressure. If
this pressure is insufficient, the device automatically pumps more pressure.
• Then the pressure in the cuff is slowly released and the pulse is measured.
• When the measurement has been completed, the remain ing air pressure is released
very quickly. The pulse, the systolic and the diastolic blood pressure are displayed.
• Measuring can be cancelled at any time by pressing the button .
• If a higher pump pressure is always required, you can bypass the additional pumping
process by holding the M+ button shortly after the pumping process starts until the
desired cuff pressure is reached. This should be approx. 30 mmHg above the systolic
value.
• The Err icon appears if it has not been possible to perform the measurement properly.
Observe the section in these instructions on error messages/troubleshooting and repeat
the measurement.
• The device switches off automatically after 3 minutes.
Wait at least 5 minutes before taking another measurement!
