or with a mains part. Please note that data transfer and data
storage is only possible when your blood pressure monitor is

the mains part is disconnected from the power supply, the
blood pressure monitor loses the date and time.

measurement.

• To conserve the batteries, the monitor switches off automati-
cally if no buttons are pressed for 3 minutes.

these instructions for use. The manufacturer is not liable for
damage resulting from improper or careless use.
