Intended Use
The product automatically measures human being‟s Systolic, Diastolic
blood pressure and pulse rate by oscillometric method. The
measurement results are displayed on the LCD. Measurement position
is at human being‟s upper arm. The intended use of this
over-the-counter device is for adults with upper arm circumference
ranging from 220 mm to 420 mm (Approx.8.7 ~ 16.5 inches) and for
home use. When the device detects the appearance of irregular
heartbeats such as atrial or ventricular premature beats during
measurement, an indicated symbol will appear with measuring
readings.
This device is designed only for adults.
Type of Use/ Reuse
Multiple patient multiple use
Intended User
The Arm type blood pressure monitor is intended or both professional
and consumer, and the patient is the intended operator.
Patient selection criteria: Handicapped persons and children are the
exception, as of handicapped persons and children need assistance by
another person to use the device.
Contra-indications
•Please do not place the cuff over a wound as this may cause further
injuries.
•If an intravenous treatment is being carried out or a venous catheter
is inserted in the arm, blood pressure measurements can lead to
injury. Never use the cuff on the arm to which these conditions apply.

•If you are prone to hematoma, do not put on a cuff nor carry out a
blood pressure measurement.
Consult your doctor before measuring your own blood pressure if…
•If you have any of the following conditions, it is essential you consult
your doctor before using the device: cardiac arrhythmia,
Cardiovascular disease, very low blood pressure, diabetes,
circulatory problems, diabetes, liver function disorders or narrowing
of blood vessels, blood disorders, pregnancy, pre-eclampsia,
hypotension, chills, shaking, tremors, implanted electrical implants
(e.g. pacemaker).
•You are on dialysis or taking anticoagulant medication
(anticoagulants), platelet aggregation inhibitors or steroids.
•You tend to bruise easily and/or are sensitive to pressure pain.
CAUTION:
•Beware of blood flow interference and resulting harmful injury to the
patient caused by continuous cuff pressure.
•Do not use the device at the same time as other medical electrical
devices (ME equipment). This could lead to a malfunction of the
device and/or an inaccurate measurement.
•Measurement results fundamentally depend on the measurement
location and the position of the patient (sitting, standing, reclining).
They are also influenced by e.g. physical activity and physiological
preconditions of the patient. For comparable values, carry out the
measurement in the same location and in the same position.
•Do not use the device outside of the specified storage and operating
conditions. This could lead to incorrect measurements.
•Please note that when inflating the cuff, the functions of the limb in
question may be impaired.
•During the blood pressure measurement, the blood circulation must
not be stopped for an unnecessarily long time. If the device

malfunctions remove the cuff from the arm.
•The blood pressure monitor is made from precision and electronic
components. The accuracy of the measurements and service life of
the device depend on its careful handling.
•Do not drop the device.
•Do not perform measurements more frequently than necessary. Due
to the restriction of blood flow, some bruising may occur.
•Retake the measurement if unexpected readings are obtained
•Ensure that the cuff is not placed on an arm in which the arteries or
veins are undergoing medical treatment, e.g., intravascular access or
therapy, or an arteriovenous (AV) shunt.
•Do not use the cuff on people who have undergone a mastectomy.
•Do not place the cuff over wounds as this may cause further injury.
•High BMI health condition users may result varied.
•The blood pressure monitor must not be used in connection with a
high-frequency surgical unit.
•Do not use the device in the vicinity of strong electromagnetic fields
and keep it away from radio systems or mobile telephones.
•The measured values taken by you are for your information only -
they are no substitute for a medical examination. Discuss the
measured values with your doctor and never make your own medical
decisions based on them (e.g. regarding dosages of medicines).
•The device is only intended for the purpose described in these
instructions for use. The manufacturer is not liable for damage
resulting from improper or incorrect use. No modification of this
equipment is allowed.
•If the irregular heart beat symbol appears often, it may indicate heart
rhythm disorders. Please consult your doctor in that case. Severe
heart rhythm disorders may sometimes produce lead to
measurements or reduce the measurement accuracy. Please discuss
with your doctor whether taking your own blood pressure is
appropriate for you.
