Saving, Retrieving And Deleting Results; Cleaning And Storing The Device And Cuff; Error Messages / Troubleshooting - Beurer BM 26 Instructions For Use Manual

The classification on the display and the scale on the unit show
which category the recorded blood pressure values fall into. If
the values of systole and diastole fall into two different catego­
ries (e.g. systole in the 'High normal' category and diastole in
the 'Normal' category), the graphical classification on the de­
vice always shows the higher category; for the example given
this would be 'High normal'.
Blood pressure Systole

ing the M+ button displays the average value AVG of the 3
most recent measurements stored in the user memory. By
pressing the + button, the most recent measurements are
displayed; by pressing the - button, the oldest are displayed.
• The average value AVG can only be displayed if there are 3
saved values in the respective user memory.
• To clear the memory, you must first select a user memory.
Hold the SET button pressed for approx. 3 seconds. All the
values in the current user memory are deleted after 3 brief
beeps are output.
• If you wish to change the user memory, see "Select memory".

7. Cleaning and storing the device and cuff

• Clean the device and cuff carefully using a slightly damp
cloth only.
• Do not use any cleaning agents or solvents.
• Under no circumstances hold the device and cuff under wa­
ter, as this can cause liquid to enter and damage the device
and cuff.
• If you store the device and cuff, do not place heavy objects
on the device and cuff. Remove the batteries. The cuff line
should not be bent sharply.
