Select memory
You have two memories (50 memory spaces each) in
order to save the test results of 2 different people sepa-
rately, or else save measurements in the morning and
evening separately.
Select the required memory space by pressing the user
selection button
Measuring blood pressure
• Put on the cuff as described previously and assume
the position in which you want to carry out the measu-
rement.
• Press the „User-Switching key"
memory zone, and press the
rement in the chosen memory zone. After checking the
display with all digits lighting up, the monitor will auto-
matically inflate. Following the self-test, during which
all display elements briefly appear, the measurement
begins. During inflation the device already determines
measured values used to estimate the required inflati-
on pressure. If this pressure is insufficient, the device
automatically inflates by another 40 mmHg (Real Fuzzy
Logic).
• Then the pressure in the cuff is slowly released and the
pulse is measured.
• When the measurement has been completed, the
remaining air pressure is released very quickly. The
.
to select a
key 2x to start measu-
pulse, the systolic and the diastolic blood pressure are
displayed.
• The device requires approx. 5 seconds to store the de-
termined measured value.
• You can interrupt measurement at any time by pres-
sing the ON/OFF button
• To switch off and release the pressure, press the ON/
OFF button again. If you forget to switch off the de-
vice, it switches off automatically after approx. 1 minute.
Wait at least 5 minutes before taking another measure-
ment!
Evaluating results
Cardiac arrhythmia:
This instrument can identify possible cardiac arrhythmia
disorders during measurement and if necessary indi-
cates the measurement with the flashing icon
This may be an indicator for arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is a
condition where the heart rhythm is abnormal as a re-
sult of defects in the bioelectrical system controlling the
heart beat. The symptoms (omitted or premature heart
beats, slow or excessively fast heart rate) may be caused,
among other things, by heart disease, age, physical pre-
disposition, excessive use of stimulants, stress or lack of
sleep. Arrhythmia can only be ascertained through exami-
nation by your doctor.
