1. Introduction
1.1. Features
The blood-pressure monitor is a fully automatic, digital blood-pressure measuring device for use
on the wrist, which enables very fast and reliable measurement of the systolic and diastolic
blood-pressure as well as the pulse frequency by way of the oscillometric method of measuring.
The device offers a very high and clinical tested measurement accuracy and has been designed
to provide a maximum of user-friendliness.
Before using, please read through this instruction manual carefully and then keep it in a safe
place. For further questions on the subject of blood-pressure and its measurement, please
contact your doctor.
Attention!
1.2. Important information about self-measurement
• Do not forget: self-measurement means control, not diagnosis or treatment. Unusual
values must always be discussed with your doctor. Under no circumstances should you alter
the dosages of any drugs prescribed by your doctor.
• The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart pacemakers!
• In cases of cardiac irregularity (Arrhythmia), measurements made with this instrument
should only be evaluated after consultation with the doctor.
Electromagnetic interference
The device contains sensitive electronic components (Microcomputer). Therefore, avoid strong
electrical or electromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity of the device (e.g. mobile telephones,
microwave cookers). These can lead to temporary impairment of the measuring accuracy.
