• Do not perform measurements more frequently than neces-
sary. Due to the restriction of blood flow, some bruising may
occur.
• Blood circulation must not be stopped for an unnecessarily
long time during the blood pressure measurement. If the de-
vice malfunctions, remove the cu from the arm.
• Place the cu on the upper arm only. Do not place the cu on
other parts of the body.
• The air line poses a risk of strangulation for small children.
• Small parts may present a choking hazard for small children if
swallowed. They should therefore always be supervised
• Keep packaging material away from children. There is a risk
of su ocation.
• Keep away from children, pets and pests.
• Do not drop, step on or shake the device.
• Do not disassemble the device as this may cause damage,
faults and malfunctions.
• Do not modify the device.
• To rule out a di erence between sides, the measurement
should initially be taken on both arms.
• Never operate the device during maintenance work. Mainte-
nance work includes maintenance, inspection and repair.
• Use a mains connection that is easily accessible so that the
mains plug can be removed quickly if necessary.
General precautions
CAUTION
• The blood pressure monitor is made from precision and elec-
tronic components. The accuracy of the measurements and
service life of the device depend on its careful handling.
• Protect the device and its mains adapter from impacts, humid-
ity, dirt, drastic changes in temperature and direct sunlight.
• Ensure the device is at room temperature before taking a
measurement. If the measuring device has been stored close
to the maximum or minimum storage and transport tempera-
tures and is placed in an environment with a temperature of
20 °C, it is recommended that you wait approx. 2 hours before
using the measuring device.
• Do not use the device in the vicinity of strong electromag-
netic fields and keep it away from radio systems or mobile
telephones.
• We recommend removing the batteries if the device is not go-
ing to be used for a prolonged period of time.
• Avoid any mechanical restriction, compression or bending of
the cu line.
