• There are many causes of excessively high blood pressure
values. Your doctor will explain them in more detail and offer treat-
ment where appropriate. Besides medication, relaxation techniques,
weight loss and exercise can also lower your blood pressure.
• Under no circumstances should you alter the dosages of
drugs or initiate a treatment without consulting 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 measurements per
day, one in the morning and one in the evening.
• 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 a much clearer picture than just
one single measurement.
• Leave a small break of at least 15 seconds between two
measurements.
• If you are pregnant, you should monitor your blood pressure
regularly as it can change drastically during this time.

• If you suffer from an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia, see
«Section 4.»), measurements taken with this device should only
be evaluated after consultation with your doctor.
• The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency
of heart pacemakers!
