Error Description Potential cause and remedy
Readings from
repeated
measurements differ
considerably.
Blood pressure is a
fluctuating value.
For healthy adults,
deviations of 10 to
20 mmHg are possible.
Reminder: always use the same arm
for measurements!
Cuff is not properly
fitted.
Ensure that the cuff is fitted
according to the “Applying the arm
cuff” section.
Readings were not
consistently taken at
heart level.
For each measurement, make sure
that the cuff is at heart level.
Talking, coughing,
laughing, moving etc.
when measuring will
influence the reading.
While measuring, relax, keep still,
do not move or speak.
Blood pressure values
measured at your
doctor’s office differ
from your
measurements.
Doctor visits can
frequently cause
anxiety.
Record the daily development of
the measured values and consult
your doctor.
Display remains
blank, or is unusual,
when instrument is
switched on.
Batteries are not
installed properly.
Check batteries for correct polarity.
Device frequently
fails to measure
blood pressure
values, or values
measured are too low
(or too high).
Cuff may not be
properly positioned.
Ensure that the cuff is fitted
according to the “Applying the arm
cuff” section.
