NOTE:
• This instrument is intended for use on and by adult only. Do not use this device on or by children, toddlers and infants.
• For reliable monitoring and reference of blood pressure, it is recommended to do the measurement daily at the same
time.
• In order to obtain a resting condition blood pressure, do not take alcoholic and caffeinated beverages, smoke, exercise or
bath for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement.
• To minimize measurement variations due to physical activity, relax for five to ten minutes before taking a measurement.
If you are excited by emotional stress or muscular movement, the measurement result may be inaccurate.
• You should not be physically tired or exhausted while taking measurement.
• Perform measurements in a quiet and relaxed environment at room temperature.
• Remain relax, still and do not speak during measurement since the accuracy of any blood pressure measurement with
this device can be affected by those multitude of causes.
• Always wait at least 5 minutes between measurements to allow the blood circulation in your arm to return to normal.
You may need to increase the waiting time depending on your individual physiological characteristic.
• Should the device detect an abnormal condition, it stops the measurement and will display an error code. See
"TROUBLESHOOTING" for more details.
• This device measures blood pressure based on heartbeat. If you have a very weak or an irregular heartbeat, the device
may have difficulty in determining your blood pressure. (An irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that varies by 25%
from the average of all heartbeats during measurement.)
• Do not exert any kind of pressure on the air tube during measurement, e.g. laying your arm or any other object on the air
tube. This could cause incorrect measurements.
