7. Error Messages and Troubleshooting
I have been diagnosed with
Afib by the physician, but
the " " symbol does not
appear.
Is the blood pressure
reading reliable when the
" " symbol appears?
EN47
Afib may not occur at the time of
specific blood pressure
measurements. We recommend you to
consult with your physician regularly.
Afib or an irregular heartbeat can
influence your blood pressure
measurements and make it difficult to
get an accurate reading. Repeated
measurements may be required to
overcome variabilities.* In Afib mode,
the blood pressure measurement is
taken 3 times, and the average is
displayed. The monitor will indicate an
error message (E5/E6) if the influence
of the irregular heartbeat is too severe
to give a measurement result. If this
occurs repeatedly, we recommend that
you consult with your physician.
