and data storage is only possible when your blood pressure monitor is supplied with power. As
soon as the batteries are empty, the blood pressure monitor loses the date and time.
• To conserve the batteries, the blood pressure monitor switches off automatically if you do not
press any buttons for two minutes.
• The device is only intended for the purpose described in these instructions for use. The manu-
facturer is not liable for damage resulting from improper or careless use.
General notes on using the ECG stick
• The ECG measuring device is a single-channel electrocardiogram (ECG) device that you can use
to rapidly record an electrocardiogram (ECG). In addition, the device provides a clear evaluation
of the recording, particularly as regards any disruption of the heart rhythm.
• The ECG measuring device displays changes in the heart rhythm, which may have various dif-
ferent causes. These may be harmless, but may also be triggered by illnesses or diseases of
differing degrees of severity. Please consult a medical specialist if you believe you may have an
illness or disease.
• Electrocardiograms recorded using the ECG measuring device show the heart's function at the
time of the measurement. As such, any changes occurring before or after the measurement is
taken may not necessarily be detected.
• ECG measurements, such as those taken with the ECG measuring device, cannot identify all
heart diseases. Regardless of the measurement taken, you should consult your doctor immedi-
ately if you experience symptoms that could indicate acute heart disease. Such symptoms could
include (but are not limited to):
- pain or pressure on the left of the chest area or abdomen,
- radiating pain in the area of the mouth/jaw/face, or in the shoulders, arm or hands,
- back pain,
- nausea,
- burning sensation in the chest,
- tendency to collapse,
- breathlessness,
- rapid heartbeat or irregular heart rhythm
- or, in particular, a combination of these symptoms.
• ALWAYS consult a doctor IMMEDIATELY if you experience any of these symptoms. If you have
any doubts, seek an emergency medical examination.
