Important technical details2.
A consistently good power supply to the unit is essential for trouble-free
blood pressure measurements.
•
Please use long-life alkaline batteries only (LR03).-
When replacing batteries, always replace all the batteries at the same
time.
-
You will need 2 x 1.5 V AAA/LR03 batteries. Rechargeable batteries
have a voltage of only 1.2 V and are thus not suitable.
-
If the unit is not used for an extended period of time, please remove
the batteries. Essentially, all batteries can leak.
-
Using this unit near mobile phones, microwave ovens or other devices
with strong electromagnetic fields may lead to malfunctions. See also
EMC description from Page EN-78.
•
The display of the pulse frequency is not suitable for checking the fre-
quency of cardiac pacemakers. Cardiac pacemakers and blood pressure
monitors do not influence each other in their mode of operation.
•
Never open or modify the unit or the cuff - this is a medical device and
may only be opened by authorised specialists. (Exception: replacing
batteries). If the unit has been opened, it must be subjected to a metro-
logical inspection by an authorised institution.
•
The cuff may be inflated on the wrist only.•
Please comply with the specified operating conditions for measurement.
See Technical data, Page EN-71.
•
The inflating and measuring procedure can be stopped by pressing the
Start/Stop button. In this case, the unit stops the inflation procedure and
deflates the cuff.
•
The unit contains small parts which could be swallowed by children. It
should therefore be kept out of the reach of children at all times.
•
Measuring your own blood pressure does not constitute treatment. On
no account modify of your own accord the dosage of drugs/medication
prescribed by your doctor.
•
Please refer to the chapter “Important instructions for use” (Page EN-
54) before conducting any measurements yourself.
