Measur
ement
• Press the START/STOP button to switch off the
blood pressure monitor. The measurement is then
stored in the selected user memory.
If Bluetooth® data transfer has been activated, data is
transferred after having confirmed the user memory. The
blood pressure monitor shows the Bluetooth ® symbol
during data transfer. Press the START/STOP button
once again to switch off the blood pressure monitor.
Please note that you must add the blood pressure
monitor in “My devices” in the Beurer “HealthManag-
er” app to enable data transfers. The Beurer “Health-
Manager” app must be active to allow data transfers.
If the current data is not displayed on your smart-
phone, repeat the transfer as described in Chapter 8.
If you forget to turn off the blood pressure monitor, it will
switch off automatically after approximately 3 minutes. In
this case too, the value is stored in the selected or most
recent user memory and the data is transferred if Blue-
tooth ® data transfer has been activated. The Bluetooth ®
symbol appears on the blood pressure monitor display
during data transfer.
• Wait at least 5 minutes before taking an-
other measurement!
6. Evaluating results
Cardiac arrhythmia:
This unit can identify potential disruptions of the heart rhythm
when measuring and if necessary, indicates this after the
measurement with the symbol .
This can be an indicator for arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is a condi-
tion in which the heart rhythm is abnormal because of flaws in
the bioelectrical system that regulates the heartbeat. The sym-
ptoms (skipped or premature heart beats, pulse being slow or
too fast) can be caused by factors such as heart disease, age,
physical make-up, excess stimulants, stress or lack of sleep.
Arrhythmia can only be determined through an examination by
your doctor.
If the symbol is shown on the display after the measure-
ment has been taken, it should be repeated. Please ensure that
you rest for 5 minutes beforehand and do not speak or move
during the measurement. If the symbol appears frequent-
ly, please consult your doctor.
Self-diagnosis and treatment based on the measurements can
be dangerous. Always follow your GP’s instructions.
WHO classification:
In accordance with the guidelines/definitions of the World
Heath Organization and the latest findings, the measurements
can be classified and assessed according to the following
table.
However, these standard values serve only as a general
guideline, as the individual blood pressure varies in different
people and different age groups etc.
