10. This device is intended for adult use only (12 years and older). This Electronic
Sphygmomanometers should never be used on infants or young children. Consult your
physician or other health care professionals before use on older children. Never use on
infants or individuals that cannot express themselves.
11. The inflation or deflation process can be stopped by pressing the POWER button.
12. People suffering from arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature beats or atrial
fibrillation should only use this unit after consulting with their doctor. In certain cases the
oscillometric measurement can produce incorrect readings.
13. People with irregular or unstable circulation resulting from diabetes, liver disease,
arteriosclerosis or other medical conditions, there may be variations in blood pressure values
measured at the wrist versus at the upper arm. Monitoring the trends in your blood pressure
taken at either the arm or the wrist is nevertheless useful and important.
14. People suffering from vascular constriction, liver disorders or diabetes, people with cardiac
pacemakers or a weak pulse, and women who are pregnant should consult their physician
before measuring their blood pressure themselves. Different values may be obtained due to
their condition.
15. Use only the approved arm cuff for this unit. Use of other arm cuffs may result in incorrect
measurement results.
16. To avoid cross contamination, do not share the cuff with an infectious person.
17. Prolonged over-inflation (cuff pressure exceed 300 mmHg or maintained above 15 mmHg
for longer than 3 minutes) of the bladder may cause ecchymoma of your arm.
18. The cuff should not be applied over a wound as this can cause further injury.
19. DO NOT attach the cuff to a limb being used for IV infusions or any other intravascular
access, therapy or an arterio-venous (A-V) shunt. The cuff inflation can temporarily block
blood flow, potentially causing harm to the patient.
20. The cuff should NOT be placed on the arm on the side of a mastectomy. In the case of
double mastectomy use the side of the least dominant arm.
21. Pressurization of the cuff can temporarily cause loss of function of simultaneously used
monitoring equipment on the same limb.
22. A compressed or kinked connection hose may cause continuous cuff pressure resulting in
blood flow interference and potentially harmful injury to the patient.
23. Check that operation of the unit does not result in prolonged impairment of the circulation of
the patient.
24. The monitor might not meet its performance specifications if stored or used outside the
specified temperature and humidity ranges in specifications.
