• Measure your blood pressure before meals.
• Before taking readings, allow yourself at least five minutes rest.
• If the systolic and diastolic readings seem unusual (too high or too low) on
several occasions, despite correct use of the unit, please inform your doctor.
This also applies to the rare occasions when an irregular or very weak pulse
prevents you from taking readings.
Insertion: Open the battery compartment on the underside of the unit by
exerting gentle pressure, and insert the four batteries included with the unit
(alkaline batteries, AA type, LR 6). Remember to insert the batteries as indi-
cated in the diagram in the battery compartment. Replace the lid, pressing it
until it snaps into place.
Removal: When the battery symbol
place the batteries with new ones. After batteries be inserted, the display will
display the defaulted date & time. Set the date and time as described in 3.3 /
3.4. Please note that the date and time will have to be reset each time new bat-
teries are inserted. The previous measuring results are saved.
