Instructions for storage and maintenance

• The blood pressure monitor is made from precision and elec-
tronic components. The accuracy of the measurements and
service life of the device depend on its careful handling:
– Protect the device from impacts, humidity, dirt, marked
temperature fluctuations and direct sunlight.
– Do not drop the device.
– Do not use the device in the vicinity of strong electromag-
netic fields and keep it away from radio systems or mobile
telephones.
– Only use the cuff included with the delivery or original re-
placement parts. Otherwise incorrect measurements will be
recorded.
• Do not press the buttons before the cuff is placed on the
arm.
• We recommend that the batteries be removed if the device
will not be used for a prolonged period of time.

notes on batteries

• Swallowing batteries can be extremely dangerous. Keep the
batteries and products out of the reach of small children. If a
battery is swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
• Batteries must not be recharged, reactivated by other means,
taken apart, thrown into an open fire or short circuited.
• If the batteries are empty or you do not intend to use the de-
vice for longer periods, remove the batteries from the device.
This prevents damage which could occur when the batteries
expire. Always replace all batteries at the same time.
• Do not use different types of batteries, different brands or
batteries with different capacities. We recommend using
alkaline batteries.
