Intended use
The blood pressure monitor is intended for the fully automatic, non-invasive measurement of arterial blood pressure and pulse values on the upper arm.
Target group
It is designed for self-measurement by adults in the home environment and is suitable for users whose upper arm circumference is within the range printed on the cuff. The device is also ideal for taking blood pressure measurements on women who are pregnant. This was successfully tested as part of a clinical study (Tempestas, Institut für Medizinische Forschung, Cloppenburg, Germany).
Indication/clinical benefits
The user can record their blood pressure and pulse values quickly and easily using the device. The recorded values are classified according to internationally applicable guidelines and evaluated graphically. Furthermore, the device can detect any irregular heart beats that occur during measurement and inform the user via a symbol in the display. The device saves the recorded measurements and can also output average values of previous measurements. This blood pressure monitor also has a haemodynamic stability display, which is referred to as a resting indicator throughout these instructions for use. This shows whether you, and consequently your circulatory system, are sufficiently at rest when the blood pressure measurement is being taken, and whether the measured blood pressure thus corresponds to your blood pressure when at rest. Read more about this under "Resting indicator" in the section on using the device. The recorded data can provide healthcare service providers with support during the diagnosis and treatment of blood pressure problems, and therefore plays a part in the long-term monitoring of the user's health.
If the battery replacement symbol is permanently displayed, you can no longer perform any measurements and must replace all batteries. Once the batteries have been removed from the device, the date and time must be set again. Any saved measurements are retained.
You can alternatively also operate this device with a mains part (not included in delivery). However, before connecting the device with the mains part, please ensure that you have removed the batteries from the device. During mains operation, there must not be any batteries in the battery compartment, as this could damage the device.
It is essential to set the date and time. Otherwise, you will not be able to save your measured values correctly with a date and time and access them again later.
There are two different ways to access the menu from which you can adjust the settings:
In this menu you can adjust the following settings in succession:

General information about blood pressure
Cardiac arrhythmia
This device can identify potential disruptions of the heart rhythm when measuring and, if necessary, indicates this after the measurement with the symbol . This can be an indicator for arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is an illness in which the heart rhythm is abnormal because of flaws in the bioelectrical system that regulates the heartbeat. The symptoms (skipped or premature heart beats, pulse being slow or too fast) can be caused by factors such as heart disease, age, physical make-up, excess stimulants, stress or lack of sleep. Arrhythmia can only be determined through an examination by your doctor. If the symbol appears frequently, please consult your doctor. Only they are able to determine any arrythmia during an examination.
Risk indicator
The measurements can be classified and evaluated in accordance with the following table.
However, these standard values serve only as a general guideline, as the individual blood pressure varies in different people and different age groups etc.
It is important to consult your doctor regularly for advice. Your doctor will tell you your individual values for normal blood pressure as well as the value above which your blood pressure is classified as dangerous.
The bar chart on the display and the scale on the device show which category the recorded blood pressure values fall into. If the values of systole and diastole fall into two different categories (e.g. systole in the high normal category and diastole in the normal category), the graphical classification on the device always shows the higher category; for the example given this would be high normal.
Blood pressure value category | Systole (in mmHg) | Diastole (in mmHg) | Action | |
Level 3: severe hypertension | red | ≥ 180 | ≥ 110 | Seek medical attention |
Level 2: moderate hypertension | orange | 160 – 179 | 100 – 109 | Seek medical attention |
Level 1: mild hypertension | yellow | 140 – 159 | 90 – 99 | Regular monitoring by doctor |
High normal | green | 130 – 139 | 85 – 89 | Regular monitoring by doctor |
Normal | green | 120 – 129 | 80 – 84 | Self-monitoring |
Optimal | green | < 120 | < 80 | Self-monitoring |
Resting indicator
One of the most common errors made when taking a blood pressure measurement is not ensuring that the user's circulatory system is sufficiently at rest when taking the measurement. In this case, the measured systolic and diastolic blood pressure values do not correspond to the blood pressure at rest. However, it is this blood pressure at rest that should be used to assess the measured values.
This blood pressure monitor uses integrated haemodynamic stability diagnostics (HSD) to measure the user's haemodynamic stability when taking the blood pressure measurement. This enables it to indicate whether the blood pressure was taken when the user's circulatory system was sufficiently at rest.
Resting indicator lights up GREEN | The measured blood pressure value was obtained when the user's circulatory system was sufficiently at rest and reliably corresponds to the blood pressure at rest. |
Resting indicator lights up RED | Indicates that the value was obtained when the user's circulatory system was not sufficiently at rest. The blood pressure values measured in this case generally do not correspond to the blood pressure at rest. The measurement should therefore be repeated after a period of physical and mental rest lasting at least 5 mins. |
Resting indicator does not light up | During the measurement it was not possible to determine whether the user's circulatory system was sufficiently at rest. In this case too, the measurement should be repeated after a period of rest lasting at least 5 mins. |
If the user's circulatory system was not sufficiently at rest, this can be caused by various factors such as physical or mental strain or distraction, speaking, or experiencing cardiac arrhythmia during the measurement.
In an overwhelming number of cases, HSD will give a very good guide as to whether the user's circulatory system is rested when taking a blood pressure measurement.
However, certain patients suffering from cardiac arrhythmia or chronic mental conditions may remain haemodynamically unstable even in the long-term, something which persists even after repeated periods of rest. The accuracy of the results for the blood pressure at rest is reduced in these users.
Like any medical measurement method, the precision of HSD is limited and can lead to incorrect results in some cases. Nevertheless, the blood pressure measurements taken when the user's circulatory system is sufficiently at rest represent particularly reliable results.
User memory
The results of every successful measurement are stored together with the date and time. If there are more than 60 measurements, the oldest measurements are lost.
Average values
