•
Do not allow sustained pressure in the cuff or frequent measurements. The resulting restriction of the blood flow may
cause injury.
•
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.
•
You can either use the blood pressure monitor with batteries or with a mains charger. Please note that data transfer
and data storage is only possible when your blood pressure monitor is supplied with power. As soon as the batteries are
empty or the mains disconnected from the power supply, the blood pressure monitor loses the date and time.
•
To conserve the batteries, the monitor switches off automatically if no buttons are pressed for 3 minutes.
•
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 careless use.
Storage and Care

The blood pressure monitor is made up of precision electronic components. Accuracy of readings and the instrument’s
service life depend on careful handling.
– You should protect the device from impact, moisture, dirt, major temperature fluctuations and direct exposure to the
sun’s rays. – Never drop the device. – Do not use near strong electromagnetic fields, i.e. keep it away from any
radiosystems and mobile phones. – Only ever use the cuffs provided with the monitor or original replacement cuffs
