IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
When using electrical products, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, including
the following:
Warnings
- Please keep the unit out of reach of infants,
children or pets, since inhalation or swallowing
of small parts can be dangerous or even fatal.
- The device is only intended for measuring the
blood pressure of adults.
- The device is not suitable for persons who have
electrical implants.
- Do not use this blood pressure monitor on any
arm where intravascular access or therapy
(such as an intravenous drip or a blood
transfusion), or an arterio-venous shunt (A-V
shunt) is present. The temporary interference to
blood flow by the blood pressure measurement
could result in injury.
- If you had a mastectomy (breast amputation)
do not use this blood pressure monitor on the
arm on the side of the mastectomy. The
inflating cuff can lead to pain, trauma and
further injury in the arm on the side of the
mastectomy.
- A device should never be left unattended when
plugged in.
- Consult your physician if you suffer from
illnesses prior to using the device.
- No modifications of this equipment are allowed.
This may result in increased emissions or
decreased immunity of the device.
- Do not use while bathing and within 20 minutes
after taking a bath.
- Do not use the blood pressure monitor during
charging as this can cause injury.
- Do not touch the output of the DC charger as
this can cause injury.
- Do not dispose of built-in batteries in fire.
Battery may explode or leak.
- Do not reach for a corded device that has fallen
into water. Unplug immediately.
- The batteries used in this device may present a
fire or chemical burn hazard if mistreated. Do
not disassemble, heat above 100°C (212°F) or
incinerate.
- Do not use an extension cord with this device.
- If you experience discomfort during a
measurement, such as pain in the arm or other
complaints, press the 'on' button to release the
air immediately from the cuff. Loosen the cuff
and remove it from your wrist.
- On the rare occasion of a fault causing the cuff
to remain fully inflated during measurement,
open the cuff immediately. Prolonged high
pressure (cuff pressure >300mmHg or constant
pressure >15mmHg for more than 3 minutes)
applied to the arm, may lead to bruises
(ecchymosis).
- Too frequent and consecutive measurements
could cause disturbances in blood circulation
and injuries.
- Beware of strangulation with the DC charger
cord, particularly for children and infants due to
cables.
- This device is not intended for use outside a
home environment.
