3.Using the Unit

Important:

• If your systolic or diastolic pressure is

outside the standard range, the heartbeat

symbol will blink when the measurement

result is displayed.

Recent research suggests that the

following values can be used as a guide to

high blood pressure for measurements

taken at home.

This criteria is for home blood pressure measurement.

For professional office blood pressure measurement criteria,

please refer to Chapter 9 “Some Useful Information about

Blood Pressure”.

• Your blood pressure monitor includes

an irregular heartbeat feature.

Irregular heartbeats can influence the

results of the measurement. The

irregular heartbeat algorithm

automatically determines if the

measurement is usable or needs to

be repeated. If the measurement

results are affected by irregular

heartbeats but the result is valid, the result is shown

together with the irregular heartbeat symbol ( ). If the

irregular heartbeats cause the measurement to be invalid,

no result is shown. If the irregular heartbeat symbol ( ) is

shown after you have taken a measurement, repeat the

measurement. If the irregular heartbeat symbol ( ) is

shown frequently, please make your doctor aware of it.

Systolic Blood Pressure Above 135 mmHg
