4. Appearance of the Heart Arrhythmia Indicator for
early Detection
This symbol AM indicates that certain pulse irregularities were detected
during the measurement. In this case, the result may deviate from your
normal blood pressure – repeat the measurement. In most cases, this is
no cause for concern. However, if the symbol appears on a regular basis
(e.g. several times a week with measurements taken daily) we advise you
to tell your doctor. Please show your doctor the following explanation:
BP W1 Basic
Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the
Arrhythmia indicator
This device is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also anal-
yses pulse frequency during measurement. The device is clinically
tested.
The arrhythmia symbol is displayed after the measurement, if pulse
irregularities occur during measurement. If the symbol appears more
frequently (e.g. several times per week on measurements performed
daily) we recommend the patient to seek medical advice.
This device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to
detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.

5. Traffic Light Indicator in the Display

The bars on the left-hand edge of the display AK show you the range
within which the indicated blood pressure value lies. Depending on
the height of the bar, the readout value is either within the optimum
(green), elevated (yellow), too high (orange) or dangerously high
(red) range. The classification corresponds to the 4 ranges in the
table as defined by the international guidelines (ESH, AHA, JSH), as
described in «Section 1.».
