Ccuracy Test - ADC 6021 User Manual

Every measurement results in different val-
ues, although the device functions normally
and normal values are displayed.
Blood pressure values differ from those
measured by my doctor.
After the instrument has inflated the cuff the
pressure falls very slowly, or not at all. (No
reasonable measurement possible).
8. Care and Maintenance
a) Do not expose the device to either extreme temperatures, humidity, dust or direct sunlight.
b) The cuff contains a sensitive air-tight bubble. Handle this cuff carefully and avoid all types of stress
through twisting or buckling.
c) Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use gas, thinners or similar solvents. Spots on the
cuff can be removed carefully with a damp cloth and soapsuds. The cuff with bladder must not be
washed in a dishwasher, clothes washer, or submerged in water.
d) Handle the tube carefully. Do not pull on it. Do not allow the tubing to kink and keep it away from
sharp edges.
e) Do not drop the monitor or treat it roughly in any way. Avoid strong vibrations.
f) Never open the monitor! This invalidates the manufacturer' s warranty.
g) Batteries and electronic instruments must be disposed of in accordance with the locally applicable
regulations, not with domestic waste.
