How is blood pressure measured?
This product is a blood pressure monitor used to measure blood pressure at the upper arm. This device can measure blood
pressure simultaneously with cuff inflation via a microprocessor, allowing for faster measurement than conventional methods.
Blood pressure classification
systolic mmHg diastolic mmHg
Bloodpressure indicator
≥ 180 ≥ 110 Stage 3 Hypertension emergency
160 - 179 100 - 109 Stage 2 Moderate hypertension
140 - 159 90 - 99 Stage 1 Mild hypertension
130 - 139 85 - 89 high-normal blood pressure
120 - 129 80 - 84 normal blood pressure
< 120 < 80 optimal blood pressure
WARNING - Blood pressure that is too low represents just as great a health risk as blood
pressure that is too high! Fits of dizziness may lead to dangerous situations arising (e.g. on
stairs or in traffic)!
Influencing and evaluating readings
• Measure your blood pressure several times, then record and compare the results. Do not draw any conclusions from a single
reading.
• Your blood pressure readings should always be evaluated by a doctor who is also familiar with your personal medical history.
When using the unit regularly and recording the values for your doctor, you should visit the doctor from time to time to keep
him updated.
• When taking readings, remember that the daily values are influenced by several factors. Smoking, consumption of alcohol,
drugs and physical exertion influence the measured values in various ways.
• Measure your blood pressure before meals.
• Before taking readings, allow yourself at least five minutes rest.
• If the systolic and diastolic readings seem unusual (too high or too low) on several occasions, despite correct use of the unit,
please inform your doctor. This also applies to the rare occasions when an irregular or very weak pulse prevents you from
taking readings.
Getting started - Inserting/changing batteries
You must insert the batteries provided before you can use your unit. The lid of the battery compartment is located on the
underside of the unit. Open it, remove it and insert the 4 x 1,5 V batteries, type AAA / LR03 supplied. Ensure correct polarity
