PRECAUTIONS
• To measure blood pressure, the arm must be squeezed by
the cuff hard enough to temporarily stop blood flow through
the artery. This may cause pain, numbness or a temporary
red mark to the arm. This condition will appear especially
when measurement is repeated successively. Any pain,
numbness, or red marks will disappear with time.
• If you feel strong pain during the measurement, please
remove the cuff.
• Measuring blood pressure too frequently may cause harm
due to blood flow interference.
• Do not apply the cuff on a arm in which another medical
device is attached. The equipment may not function properly.
• People who have a severe circulatory deficit in the arm
must consult a doctor before using the device, to avoid
medical problems.
• Do not self-diagnose the measurement results and
start treatment by yourself. Always consult your doctor for
evaluation of the results and treatment.
• Do not apply the cuff on a arm with an unhealed wound.
• Do not apply the cuff on a arm receiving an intravenous
drip or blood transfusion. It may cause injury.
• Do not use the device where flammable gases, such as
anesthetic gases, are present. It may cause an explosion.
• Do not use the device in highly concentrated oxygen
environments, such as a high-pressure oxygen chamber or an
oxygen tent. It may cause a fire or explosion.
