• The measurements taken by you are for your information only – they are no substitute for a medical
examination! Discuss the measured values with your doctor and never base any medical decisions
on them (e.g. medicines and their administration).
• Do not use the blood pressure monitor on newborns or patients with preeclampsia. We recommend
consulting a doctor before using the blood pressure monitor during pregnancy.
• Cardiovascular diseases may lead to incorrect measurements or have a detrimental e ect on meas-
urement accuracy. The same also applies to very low blood pressure, diabetes, circulatory disorders
and arrhythmias as well as chills or shaking.
• The blood pressure monitor must not be used in connection with a high-frequency surgical unit.
• Only use the unit on people that have the specified upper arm measurement for the unit.
• Please note that when inflating, the functions of the limb in question may be impaired.
• During the blood pressure measurement, the blood circulation must not be stopped for an unneces-
sarily long time. If the device malfunctions remove the cu from the arm.
• Avoid any mechanical restriction, compression or bending of the cu line.
• Do not allow sustained pressure in the cu or frequent measurements. The resulting restriction of
the blood flow may cause injury.
• Make sure that the cu is not placed on an arm in which the arteries or veins are undergoing med-
ical treatment, e.g. intravascular access or intravascular or therapy, or an arteriovenous (AV) shunt.
• Do not use the cu on people who have undergone a mastectomy.
• Do not place the cu over wounds as this may cause further injury.
• The blood pressure monitor can only be operated with batteries. Please note that data transfer 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 o 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 manufacturer
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 di erent
causes. These may be harmless, but may also be triggered by illnesses or diseases of di ering de-
grees of severity. Please consult a medical specialist if you believe you may have an illness or disease.
