Please read these instructions for use carefully
and keep them for later use, be sure to make them
accessible to other users and observe the information
they contain.
1. Getting to know your instrument
The wrist blood pressure monitor is used for non-inva-
sive measurement and monitoring of adults‘ arterial
blood pressure.
You can use it to measure your blood pressure quickly
and easily, storing the results and displaying the pro-
gression of readings. A warning is issued for anyone
suffering from cardiac arrhythmia.
The values determined are classified and graphically
evaluated according to WHO guidelines.
Keep these instructions carefully for further use and
also let other users have access to them.

Advice on use
Always measure your blood pressure at the same
time of day, in order to ensure that values are com-

Relax for approx. 5 minutes before each measure-
ment.
You should wait five minutes before measuring a
second time.
The readings that you take may only be used for
information purposes – they are not a substitute for
a medical examination! Discuss your results with the
doctor. Never use them to make medical decisions
independently (e.g. regarding medication and dosa-
ge thereof).
If circulation on one arm is restricted as a result of
chronic or acute vascular disease (including vaso-
constriction), the precision of any wrist measure-
ment is impaired. In this case, use a blood pressure
monitor for the upper arm.
There may be incorrect measurements where there
is cardiocirculatory disease, as well as with very low
blood pressure, circulatory disorders, dysrhythmia
and other preexisting diseases.
Only use the instrument on persons whose wrist has
the right circumference for the instrument.
• You may only operate the blood pressure monitor with
batteries. Note that it is only possible to save data
when your blood pressure monitor is receiving power.
As soon as the batteries are dead, the date and time on
