Device Care; Cleaning The Cuff; Accuracy Test; Disposal - Microlife BP B6 Advanced Connect Manual

 Permanently high blood pressure values can damage your
health and must be treated by your doctor!
 Always discuss your values with your doctor and tell him/her if
you have noticed anything unusual or feel unsure. Never rely
on single blood pressure readings.
 Under no circumstances should you alter the dosages of
drugs or initiate a treatment without consulting your doctor.
 Deviations between measurements taken by your doctor or in
the pharmacy and those taken at home are quite normal, as
these situations are completely different.
 The pulse display is not suitable for checking the
frequency of heart pacemakers!
 If you are pregnant, you should monitor your blood pressure
regularly as it can change drastically during this time.
Ensure that children do not use this device unsupervised;
some parts are small enough to be swallowed. Be aware of
the risk of strangulation in case this device is supplied with
cables or tubes.
