Insertion: Open the battery compartment on the underside of the unit by
exerting gentle pressure in the direction indicated by the arrow, and insert the
four batteries included with the unit (alkaline batteries, AA type, LR 6).
Remember to insert the batteries as indicated in the diagram in the battery
compartment. Replace the lid, pressing it until it snaps into place.
Removal: When the battery symbol appears in the display, please replace the
batteries with new ones. Should the used batteries be jammed in the
compartment, use a pointed instrument, such as a ballpoint pen, to carefully
prise them out.
After replacing batteries, remember that the time and date have to be
reentered. Previously stored results will be lost. Alternatively, you can use the
unit with a mains adaptor (MEDISANA Art.–No. 51036) This connects
the socket provided at the back of the unit.

The MTM gives you the opportunity to assign readings to one of two user
memories, each of which provides 99 memory slots.

With the MTM, you can choose between two measuring modes.
• Single reading
• 3 consecutive readings ( Measurement Average Mode = 3/MAM-mode )
In the case of a single reading, just one blood pressure reading is taken and sto-
red.
The 3/MAM-mode is to be recommended if you suffer from severely fluc-
tuating blood pressure. 3 successive readings are taken at 15 second intervals,
thus eliminating widely varying readings. In the case of serious deviations,
a 4th reading may be taken.
From these three measurements, a weighted average value is calculated, dis-
played and stored in the selected memory. A reading taken in this way is indi-
cated in the memory by an
The 3/MAM procedure greatly minimizes the risk of an incorrect reading.
• Do not recharge!
• Do not throw into fire!
