1.1. Features of the KL300
The blood-pressure monitor KL300(with integrated time/date display) isa fully automatic, digitalblood-pressure measuring device
for use on the upper arm, 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 oers 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.
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 elds
in the direct vicinity of the device (e.g. mobile telephones, microwave cookers). These can lead to temporary impairment of the
measuring accuracy.
2.1. How does high/low blood-pressure arise?
The level of blood-pressure is determined in a part of the brain, the so-called circulatory centre, and adapted to the respective
situation by way of feedback via the nervous system.To adjust the blood-pressure, the strength and frequency of the heart (Pulse),
as well as the width of circulatory blood vessels is altered. The latter is eected by way of ne muscles in the blood-vessel walls.
The level of arterial blood-pressure changes periodically during the heart activity: During the «blood ejection» (Systole) the value is
maximal (systolic blood-pressure value), at the end of the heart’s «rest period» (Diastole) minimal (diastolic blood-pressure value).
The blood-pressure values must lie within certain normal ranges in order to prevent particular diseases.
2.2. Which values are normal?
Blood pressure is too high if at rest, the diastolic pressure is above 90 mmHg and/or the systolic blood-pressure is over 160 mmHg.
In this case, please consult your doctor immediately. Long-term values at this level endanger your health due to the associated
advancing damage to the blood vessels in your body.
Should the systolic blood-pressure values lie between 140 mmHg and 160 mmHg and/or the diastolic blood-pressure values lie
between 90 mmHg and 100 mmHg, likewise, please consult your doctor. Furthermore, regular self-checks will be necessary.
With blood-pressure values that are too low, i.e. systolic values under 100 mmHg and/or diastolic values under 60 mmHg, likewise,
please consult your doctor. Even with normal blood-pressure values, a regular self-check with your blood-pressure monitor is
recommended. In this way you can detect possible changes in your values early and react appropriately. If you are undergoing
medical treatment to control your blood pressure, please keep a record of the level of your blood pressure by carrying out regular
self-measurementsatspecictimes ofthe day.Show these valuesto your doctor.Never use the results of your measurements
to alter independently the drug doses prescribed by your doctor.

Table for classifying blood-pressure values (unit: mmHg) according toWorld Health Organization:
Further information
• If your values are mostly standard under restingconditions but exceptionally highunder conditions of physical or psychological
stress, it is possible that you are suering from so-called «labile hypertension». Please consult your doctor if you suspect that
this might be the case.
• Correctly measured diastolic blood-pressure values above 120mmHg require immediate medical treatment.
2. Important information on the subject of blood-pressure and its measurement
Range Systolic Blood-pressure Diastolic Blood-pressure Measures
Hypotension lower than 100 lower than 60 Consult your doctor
Blood pressure optimum between 100 and 120 between 60 and 80 Self-check
Blood pressure normal between 120 and 130 between 80 and 85 Self-check
Blood pressure slightly high between 130 and 140 between 85and 90 Consult your doctor
Blood pressure too high between 140 and 160 Between90and 100 Seek medical advice
Blood pressure far too high between 160 and 180 Between100and 110 Seek medical advice
Blood pressure dangerously high Higher than 180 Higher than 110 Urgently seek medical
advice!

4.1. Inserting the batteries
a) Insert the batteries (4 x size AAA 1.5V), thereby observing the indicated polarity.
b) If the battery warning icon appears in the display, the batteries remain 20% power to warn user the batteries will be run out .
c) If the battery warning icon appears in the display, the batteries are empty and must be replaced by new ones
Attention!
4.2. Reading the set date
Please press theTIME button and the date will be shown in the display.
4.3. User selection and setting the time / date
User selection: This advanced blood pressure monitor allows you to track blood pressure readings for 2 individuals independently
a) Before measurement, make sure you set the unit for the intended user.The unit can track results for 2 individuals. (User 1, User 2)
b) Press theTIME button for at least 3 seconds.The display now indicates the set user, during which the set user blink.To conrm,
press ON/OFF button .
c) Click the MEMORY button to select User
d) We suggest the rst person to take their pressure to be User 1.

• After the battery warning icon appears, the device is blocked until the batteries have been replaced.
• Please use «AAA» Long-Life or Alkaline 1.5V Batteries. The use of 1.2V Accumulators is not recommended.
• If the blood-pressure monitor is left unused for long periods, please remove the batteries from the device.
