Advice on use

• In order to ensure comparable values, always measure

your blood pressure at the same time of day.

• Before every measurement, relax for about five minutes.

• If you want to perform several measurements on the same

person, wait five minutes between each measurement.

• Do not take a measurement within 30 minutes after eat­

ing, drinking, smoking or exercising.

• Repeat the measurement if you are unsure of the meas­

ured value.

• The measurements taken by you are for your information

only – they are not a substitute for a medical examination!

Discuss the measurements with your doctor, and never

base any medical decisions on them (e.g. medicines and

their administration)!

• Do not use the blood pressure monitor on newborns,

pregnant women or patients with preeclampsia.

• In the case of restricted circulation on the arm as a result

of chronic or acute vascular diseases (including vascu­

lar constriction), the accuracy of the wrist measurement is

limited. In this case you should avoid using an upper arm

blood pressure monitor.

• Cardiovascular diseases may lead to incorrect measure­

ments or have a detrimental effect on measurement accu­

racy. The same also applies to very low blood pressure,

diabetes, circulatory disorders and arrhythmias as well as

chills or shaking.

• The blood pressure monitor must not be used in connec­

tion with a high­frequency surgical unit.

• Only use the unit on people who have the specified wrist

measurement for the device.

• Please note that when inflating, the functions of the limb

in question may be impaired.
