sure as well as the value above which your blood pressure is
classified as dangerous.
The bar graph in the display and the scale on the unit indicate
the range of the blood pressure which has been recorded.
If the values for systolic and diastolic pressure are in two dif
ferent ranges (e.g. systolic in the highnormal range and dias
tolic pressure in the normal range) the graphic classification on
the unit indicates the higher range (highnormal in the example
described).

6. Saving, retrieving and deleting results
The computer automatically saves the blood pressure readings
of the last 50 measurements. When the 50 memory locations
are exceeded, the current oldest value is deleted.
You can display the memory as follows:
• Press the user selection button
zone, and press the M key to switch from memory to mem
ory with sequence numbers.
• The saved measured values are continuously stored.
• Press the On/Off switch
• If you forget to switch off the computer, it will switch off auto
matically after 1 minute.
Press the user selection button
zone, then press and hold the M key for approximately 5sec
onds to clear the data in the predesignated memory zone.
The data in both memory zones – zone 1 and zone 2 may be
erased if any of the batteries is removed.
7. Cleaning and storing the instrument
• Clean your device and cuff carefully only with a slightly mois
tened cloth.
• Do not use detergents or solvents.
• On no account must you immerse the computer in water,
