9.3. Delete Memory

Before you delete all memory readings stored, make sure you won’t need to refer to them
at a later date. Keeping a written record is prudent and may provide additional information
for your doctor’s visit.

To delete stored memory readings, hold the «MEMORY» button down
until the LCD shows a «CL». Release the button. Press the
«MEMORY» button while «CL» is flashing to complete the operation.
It is impossible to erase the values individually.

Possible Cause(s)/Solutions

The systolic pressure was determined, but then the pressure in the cuff went down to less
than 20 mmHg (diastolic blood pressure can’t be measured). The tube may have loosened
after the systolic pressure has been determined. Further possible reason: pulse could not be
detected.

Unnatural pressure impulses influence the measurement result. Reason: the arm was moved
during the measurement.

The difference between systolic and diastolic is excessive. Measure again carefully
following proper procedures. Consult your doctor if you still get unusual results of
measurements.

The measuring signals are inaccurate and no result can be displayed. Read through the
checklist for performing reliable measurements and then repeat the measurement.

The pressure in the cuff is too high (over 300mmHg) or the pulse is too high (over 200 beats
per minute). Relax for 5 minutes and repeat the measurement.

The pulse is too low (less than 40 beats per minute). Relax for 5 minutes and repeat the
measurement.

Other possible errors and their solutions

If problems occur when using this device, the following points should be checked.

Malfunction
