Precautions
• People who have a severe circulatory deficit in the arm must consult
a doctor before using the monitor, to avoid medical problems.
• Do not self-diagnose the measurement results and start treatment by
yourself. Always consult your doctor for evaluation of the results and
treatment.
• Do not apply the cuff on an arm with an unhealed wound.
• Do not apply the cuff on an arm receiving an intravenous drip or
blood transfusion. It may cause injury or accidents.
• Do not use the monitor where flammable gases such as anesthetic
gases are present. It may cause an explosion.
• Do not use the monitor in highly concentrated oxygen environments,
such as a high-pressure oxygen chamber or an oxygen tent. It may
cause a fire or explosion.
• Unplug the AC adapter when not in use during the measurement.
• Use of accessories not detailed in this manual may compromise
safety.
• Should the battery short-circuit, it may become hot and potentially
cause burns.
• Allow the monitor to adapt to the surrounding environment before
use (about one hour).
• Clinical testing has not been conducted on newborn infants and
pregnant woman. Do not use on newborn infants or pregnant
woman.
• Do not touch the batteries, the DC jack, and the patient at the same
time. That may result in electrical shock.
• Do not inflate without wrapping the cuff around the upper arm.
