Operation Manual

• Do not disassemble the QardioArm blood pressure monitor.

• Do not use an alcohol-based or solvent agent to clean the

device. Clean the device only with a soft, dry cloth. Clean the

cuff carefully with a damp cloth and soap. Do not submerge

any part of the QardioArm in water at any time.

AAA ALKALINE BATTERY USAGE AND STORAGE

• If AAA alkaline battery fluid should get on your skin or

clothing, immediately rinse thoroughly with plenty of clean

water.

• Use only four AAA alkaline batteries with the QardioArm

blood pressure monitor. Do not use any other types of AAA

batteries, and do not use any type of rechargeable batteries.

• When replacing batteries, insert the four AAA alkaline

batteries with their polarities aligned as indicated on the

QardioArm blood pressure monitor.

• Immediately replace the AAA alkaline batteries when they

are depleted.

• Always replace all four AAA alkaline batteries at the same

time: do not use new and old AAA alkaline batteries together.

• If the QardioArm blood pressure monitor will not be used for

a long period of time, the batteries should be removed.

• Store the device and the components in a clean, dry and

safe location.

IRREGULAR HEART BEAT MESSAGE

If irregular heartbeat is detected during the measurement

procedure, a message will be displayed. Repeat the measurement

after one hour. If irregular heart beat is detected several times in

a day or week, we recommend you discuss this with your doctor.

Under this condition, the wireless blood pressure monitor can

keep functioning, but the results may be inaccurate. There are

2 conditions under which the signal of irregular heart beat will

be displayed:

1. The coefficient of variation (CV) of pulse period >25%.

2. The difference between adjacent pulse periods ≥0.14s and the

number of such pulses constitutes more than 53 percent of

the total number of pulses.
