g) When the unit is set to the MAM setting, 3 separate measurements will take
place in succession after which your result is calculated and displayed as a
single, averaged measurement. There is a 15 second resting time in-between
each measurement. A countdown indicates the remaining time and a beep will
sound 5 seconds before the 2nd and 3rd readings will begin.
If one of the measurements causes an error message, it will be repeated one more time. If any additional error
occurs, the measurement will be discontinued and an error code will be displayed.

m e a s u r ement. After taking an averaging mode measurement hold the
M e m o ry button for 3 seconds until you hear a short beep. (Do not hold
the button longer than 7 seco

m e m o ry!) Let go of the button and watch the screen. It will automatically

5.5. Irregular Heartbeat Detector
This symbol indicates that certain pulse irregularities were
detected during the measurement. In this case, the result may deviate
f r om your normal basal blood pre s s u r e – repeat the measurement. In
most cases, this is no cause for concern
. However, if the symbol
appears on a regular basis (e.g. several times a week with
m e a s u r ements taken daily), we advise you to tell your doctor. Please
show your doctor the following explanation:
I n f o r mation for the doctor on frequent appearance of the Irregular Heartbeat Symbol
This instrument is an oscillometric blood pre s s u r e monitor device that also analyzes pulse
f r equency during measurement. The instrument is clinically tested.
If pulse i
rregularities occur during measurement, the irregular heartbeat symbol is displayed
after the measurement. If the symbol appears more frequently (e.g. several times per week on
m e a s u r ements perf o r med daily) or if it suddenly appears more often than usual, we
recommend the patient to seek medical advice.
The instrument does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to detect pulse
i r regularities at an early stage.
5.3 Colocación del brazalete
a ) El brazalete esta pre - f o r mado para facilitar su uso.
A s e g ú r ese de no tener ropa ajustada o en el brazo.
b ) Colóquese el brazalete alrededor del brazo izquierd o .
La manguera debe estar ubicada en la parte interior
del brazo extendido. Asegúrese de que el brazalete de
e n c u e n t r e de 1 a 2 cm (1/2” a 3/4”) por encima del
c o d o .
I M P O R TA N T E : La línea roja en la orilla del brazalete (Marc a
A r terial) debe quedar posicionada encima de la arteria que corre p
or
la interior del brazo.
c ) Para asegurar el brazalete, presione el velcro .
d ) Debe quedar un poco de espacio entre el brazo y brazalete.
Debería caber 2 dedos entre el mismo y el brazo. La ropa no
debe restringir el brazo. El brazalete que no quede
p e r fectamente resultará en una lectura falsa. Mídase la
c i r c u n f e r encia del brazo si no está seguro de que le va
p e r fectamente. Brazaletes más grandes se encuentran a su
disposición. (Seccion 3B).
e ) Descance el braz
o sobre la mesa (la palma de la mano hacia
a r riba) para que el brazalete esté a la misma altura que el
Corazón. Asegúrece que el tubo no esté doblado.
f ) P e r manezca sentado y tranquilo por un mínimo de dos
minutos antes de iniciar la medición.

• Mediciones seguidas hace que se acumule sangre en el brazo, que podría llevar a obtener falsos
resultados. Mediciones consecutivas deben repetirse luego de una pausa de 1 minuto o luego de
haber levantado el brazo para que la sangre acumulada fluya.
Si usted decide tomarse otra medición con Lectura Promedio, asegúrece de esperar por lo menos un
minuto de antemano.
