• There are several causes of excessively high blood pressure

values. Your doctor will explain them in more detail and offer

treatment where appropriate. Besides medication, weight loss

and exercise can also lower your blood pressure.

• Under no circumstances should you alter the dosages of any

drugs prescribed by your doctor!

• Depending on physical exertion and condition, blood pressure is

subject to wide fluctuations as the day progresses. You should

therefore take your measurements in the same quiet conditions

and when you feel relaxed! Take at least two readings every time

(in the morning and in the evening) and average the measurements.

• It is quite normal for two measurements taken in quick succession

to produce significantly different results.

• Deviations between measurements taken by your doctor or in the

pharmacy and those taken at home are quite normal, as these

situations are completely different.

• Several measurements provide much more reliable information

about your blood pressure than just one single measurement.

• Leave a small break of at least 15 seconds between two measurements.

• If you suffer from an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia, see

«Section 4.»), measurements taken with this device should be

evaluated with your doctor.

• The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency

of heart pacemakers!

• If you are pregnant, you should monitor your blood pressure very

closely as it can change drastically during this time!

A number of factors can affect the accuracy of measure-

ments taken on the wrist. In some cases, the result may

differ from the measurement taken on the upper arm. We

therefore advise you to compare these values with those

produced by the upper arm measurement and discuss them

with your doctor.
