INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
CAUTION CAUTION
* Warning: This device is not AP/APG equipment. Do not use the device in areas where
flammable anesthetics are present or in environments mixed with air or oxygen or nitrous oxide.
* The device contains sensitive electronic components. To avoid measurement errors, avoid
taking blood pressure measurements near a strong electromagnetic field radiating interference
signals or electrical fast transient/burst signals.
* Wireless communication devices, such as wireless home network devices, mobile phones,
cordless telephones and their base stations, walkie-talkies may cause interference that may
affect the accuracy of the measurements. Keep a distance of at least 1 foot (30 cm) from these
devices during measurement.
* You can use this device to take your own measurement. No third-party operator is required.
* Please use the device in the environment provided in the user manual. Otherwise, the
performance and lifespan of the device will be affected and reduced.
* The device may require up to 30 minutes to warm up/cool down from the minimum/maximum
storage temperature before it is ready for use.
* Warning: Excessive air tube length could cause strangulation if not managed properly.
* Warning: Do not touch the output of the batteries/adapter and the user simultaneously.
* Adapter is specified as a part of ME EQUIPMENT.
* Warning: The power cord is considered to be the disconnecting device that isolates this
equipment from supply mains. Do not place the equipment in a position where it is difficult to
reach or disconnect.
* The blood pressure monitor, its adapter and the cuff are suitable for use within the patient
environment.
* Warning: Do not use this device if you are allergic to polyester, nylon or plastic.
* Warning: Only use accessories approved by the manufacturer. Using unapproved accessories
might cause damage to the device and injury to the users.
* Warning: If you experience discomfort during measurement, such as pain in the arm or other
complaints, press the Power button immediately to release the air from the cuff.
* No calibration is required within two years of reliable service.
* Do not attempt to repair the device on your own if it malfunctions. Repairs should only be carried
out by the authorized service centers.
* At the request of the authorized service personnel, circuit diagrams, parts list, descriptions and
calibration procedures will be made available by the manufacturer or distributor.
* It is recommended that the performance should be checked after repair, maintenance and every
two years of use by retesting the requirements in limits of the error of the cuff pressure
indication and air leakage (at least at 50 mmHg and 200 mmHg).
* Warning: Do not use the device during servicing or maintenance.
* Store your device, cuff and adapter in a clean and dry place protected from extreme moisture,
heat, lint, dust and direct sunlight. Never place any heavy objects on it.
* Make sure the rubber tube of the cuff is not squeezed, stretched, or twisted during storage.
* Warning: Keep the device, its cuff and batteries away from children as they may pose a risk of
choking or strangulation if used improperly.
* Clean both the device and the cuff with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, use a dampened cloth and
natural detergent. Do not use alcohol, benzene or other harsh chemicals.
* Do not wash the cuff in a washing machine or dishwasher!
* The service life of the cuff may vary depending on the frequency of washing, skin condition and
storage status. The typical service life is 10000 times.
* Dispose of accessories, detachable parts and the device according to the local regulations.
* This device is intended for indoor, household use.
* This device is not intended for public use.
* This device is portable, but it is not intended for use during patient transport.
* This device is not suitable for continuous monitoring during medical emergencies or operations.
* This device is intended for non-invasive measuring and monitoring of arterial blood pressure. It
is not intended for use on extremities other than the arm or for any purpose other than obtaining
a blood pressure measurement.
* This device is for the use on adults. Do not use this device on newborns or infants. Do not use it
on children unless instructed by a medical professional.
* Do not use on women who are or may be pregnant and patients with pre-eclampsia.
* The device is not suitable for use on patients with implanted, electrical devices, such as cardiac
pacemakers and defibrillators.
* The effectiveness of this device has not been established for use:
-on users with common arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature beats or atrial
fibrillation,
-on users with peripheral arterial disease,
-on users undergoing intravascular therapy or with arteriovenous (AV) shunts.
Consult a medical professional before use.
* Do not use this device for the diagnosis or treatment of any health problem or disease. Contact
your physician if you have or suspect any medical problem. Do not change your medications
without the advice of your physician or health care professional.
* If you are taking medication, consult your physician to determine the proper time to measure
your blood pressure.
* This device should only be used for its intended use described in this manual and the
manufacturer shall have no liability for any incidental, consequential or special damages caused
by misuse or abuse.
* Report any unexpected operation or events to the manufacturer.
* Do not apply the cuff on an arm that has an intravenous drip or a blood transfusion attached.
* Warning: Do not twist, fold, stretch, compress or otherwise deform the air hose during
measurement as the cuff pressure might continue to increase, which could block blood flow and
cause injury.
* Warning: Taking blood pressure too frequently could disrupt blood circulation and cause injury.
*Warning: Do not apply the cuff to areas where the skin is fragile or damaged. Always check cuff
site for irritation.
* Warning: Do not place the cuff on the arm of a person whose arteries or veins are being
treated, i.e. intra-vascular access or intra-vascular therapy or an arteriovenous (A-V) shunt,
which could disrupt blood circulation and cause injury.
* Do not place the cuff on the arm on the same side of a mastectomy (especially when lymph
nodes have been removed). It is recommended to take measurements on the unaffected side.
* Do not wrap the cuff on the same arm to which another monitoring device is applied. One or
both devices could temporarily stop working if you try to use them at the same time.
* Please check that the operation of the device does not result in long-term damage to the
patient’s blood circulation.
* Warning: In the rare event of a malfunction causing the cuff to remain fully inflated during
measurement, loosen and remove the cuff immediately. Prolonged application of high pressure
to the arm (cuff pressure >300 mmHg or constant pressure >15 mmHg for more than 3
minutes) may lead to bruising and skin discoloration.
* Warning: Do not use this device together with high-frequency (HF) surgical equipment.
