Memory Full; Clearing All Values; How Not To Store A Reading; Setting The Alarm Function - Microlife BP A130 Instructions Manual

Pressing the M-button again displays the previous value. Pressing
the M-button repeatedly enables you to move from one stored
value to another.

Memory full

Pay attention that the maximum memory capacity of 100 is
not exceeded. When the memory is full, the old values
are automatically overwritten with new ones. Values
should be evaluated by a doctor before the memory capacity
is reached – otherwise data will be lost.

Clearing all values

If you are sure that you want to permanently remove all stored
values, hold down the M-button (the instrument must have been
switched off beforehand) until «CL» appears and then release the
button. To permanently clear the memory, press the M-button
while «CL» is flashing. Individual values cannot be cleared.

How not to store a reading

Press the ON/OFF button 1 while the reading is being displayed.
Keep the button pressed until «M» AP is flashing and then release
it. Confirm by pressing the M-button.

signal will then be triggered. This can be a useful aid, for instance
as a reminder to take medication.

must have been switched off beforehand) and immediately
afterwards the M-button AT and hold both down until the bell
symbol BK appears in the top left of the display. Then release

whether the alarm time is to be active (bell) or inactive (crossed-
out bell). To confirm, press the time button.

flashes, press the M-button to select «2» and confirm with the
time button.
An active alarm time is indicated by the bell symbol in the
display.
The alarm will sound at the set time every day.

The alarm times must be re-entered each time the batteries are
replaced.

8. Battery Indicator and Battery change

Low battery

When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol
AR will flash as soon as the instrument is switched on (partly filled
battery displayed). Although the instrument will continue to
measure reliably, you should obtain replacement batteries.
Flat battery – replacement
When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol AR will flash as
soon as the instrument is switched on (flat battery displayed). You
cannot take any further measurements and must replace the
batteries.
1. Open the battery compartment 7 at the bottom of the instrument.
2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the
symbols in the compartment.
3. To set date and time, follow the procedure described in «Section 2.».
The memory retains all values although date and time (and
possibly also set alarm times) must be reset – the year
number therefore flashes automatically after the batteries
are replaced.

Which batteries and which procedure?

Use 4 new, long-life 1.5V, size AA batteries.
Do not use batteries beyond their date of expiry.
Remove batteries if the instrument is not going to be used
for a prolonged period.
