Possible
cause
Fluctuations
of blood
pressure
during the
day are
normal.
You are using
medication.
You

variables may
affect your
blood
pressure such
as the
weather,
emotions
and exercise.
The blood
pressure
monitor is
suitable to be
used on both
arms, but the
measurement
results on the
right arm and
left arm will
differ.
The
rechargeable
battery is
empty.
The battery is
low.

not properly
secured.

motion,
talking or the
heart rate is
too weak
during the

nt.
The device
does not
detect the
heart rate
signal.
The

failed.
A system

Solution
Blood pressure
fluctuates from
minute to minute
and normally
shows a circadian
rhythm over a
24-hour period,
with highest
readings in the
afternoons and
lowest readings at
night. That is why,
for comparable
measurements, the
measurements
should be taken at
approx. the same
time of day.
The variations in
blood pressure can
be greater if you
are using
medication.
Wait at least 3
minutes between
measurements.
This allows your
blood circulation to
recover.
Pay attention when
you measure your
blood pressure at
home. Check for
instance:
If the cuff is
attached properly.
If the cuff is not too
tight or too loose.
If the cuff is
attached on the
upper arm.
If you feel anxious
or stressed, try to
relax. Take a deep
breath 2-3 times
before you start a
measurement.
Advice: Rest for 5
minutes before you
measure your
blood pressure..
For a meaningful
comparison, try to
measure under
similar conditions
and measure on
the same arm
every time.
Recharge the
battery (see
'Charging').
Charge the battery
(see 'Charging').
Check if the app is
on and try data
transmission again.
Refasten the cuff,
wait 3 minutes and
then measure
again.
Wait for 3
minutes and then
measure again. Do
not move during
measurement.
Make sure the
device is in contact
with the skin.
Loosen the
clothing on the arm
and measure again.
Wait for 3 minutes
and then measure
again.
Retake the
measurement. If
the problem
persists,
contact the Philips
Consumer Care
Center in your
country.
Turn on Bluetooth
on your mobile
device.
Press the icon on
your mobile device
to activate the
health app.
