3. Always measure in a sitting position and on the same wrist. Use
the wrist which usually shows higher blood pressure values.
4. Remove any items of clothing and your watch, for example, so
that your wrist is free.
5. Always ensure that the cuff is positioned correctly, as shown in the
pictures illustrated on the short instruction card.
6. Fit the cuff comfortably but not too tight. The cuff will cover a wrist
circumference of 13.5 - 21.5 cm (5.25 - 8.5 inches).
7. Press the ON/OFF button 1 to start the measurement.
8. The LED Positioning Indicator AR is activated. Support your arm
in a relaxed position with the device at the same height as your
heart, move your arm until the LED light is at its brightest and
appears to be in the center of the indicator.
9. After 5 seconds, the cuff will pump up automatically. Relax, do not
move and do not tense your arm muscles until the measurement
result is displayed. Breathe normally and do not talk.
10.When the correct pressure is reached, the pumping stops and the
pressure falls gradually. If the required pressure was not reached,
the device will automatically pump some more air into the cuff.
11.During the measurement, the pulse indicator AN flashes in the display.
12.The result, comprising the systolic 7 and the diastolic 8 blood
pressure and the pulse rate 9 is displayed. Note also the expla-
nations on further display symbols in this booklet.
13.Remove and switch off the monitor and enter the result in the
enclosed blood pressure pass. (The monitor does switch off auto-
matically after approx. 1 min.).

You can stop the measurement at any time by pressing the
ON/OFF button (e.g. if you feel uneasy or an unpleasant pres-
sure sensation).
4. Appearance of the Irregular Heartbeat (IHB) Symbol
This symbol AM indicates that an irregular heartbeat was detected. In
this case, the measured blood pressure may deviate from your actual
blood pressure values. It is recommended to repeat the measure-
ment.
5. Traffic Light Indicator in the Display
The bars on the left-hand edge of the display AK show you the range
within which the indicated blood pressure value lies. Depending on
the height of the bar, the readout value is either within the optimum
(green), elevated (yellow), too high (orange) or dangerously high
Information for the doctor in case of repeated appearance of
the IHB symbol:
This device is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also
measures the pulse during blood pressure measurement and
indicates when the heart rate is irregular.
