Caution

1. Consult your physician to verify your blood pressure range before obtaining it at home with this unit.
2. If the cuff causes any discomfort during measurement, press the start/stop button to turn off the unit immediately.
3. Pull off the velcro strap to detach the arm cuff if the pressure is over 300mmHg and the cuff does not deflate automatically.

Blood pressure measurements obtained with this unit are equivalent to those obtained by a trained person using the cuff/ stethoscope auscultation method.

WARRANTY :

Three years from the date of purchase.

Information You Should Know Before Operating the Unit

What is blood pressure?

A force is created by the heart as the ventricle forcibly ejects blood into the blood vessels and through the transport system. Another force is created by the arteries as they resist the blood flow. Blood pressure is the result of these two forces.

What are systolic and diastolic pressures?

Systolic pressure represents the highest pressure at the height of the heart's contraction. Diastolic pressure is the lowest pressure when the heart is resting.

Is my blood pressure normal?

See the following blood pressure classification chart released by the WHO (World Health Organization) for evaluation of your blood pressure level.

GB

Diastolic mmHg

Information You Should Know Before Operating the Unit

What about low blood pressure?

In general, a lower blood pressure reading is better unless it causes some uncomfortable symptoms such as fainting and/or lightheadedness.

Fluctuation and variation in blood pressure

The following chart shows possible blood pressure fluctuations during a 24hr period.

GB

The following factors will influence blood pressure measurement results and cause variations.

• Bathing • Breathing
• Conversation • Drinking alcohol
• Exercise • Moving
• Mental tension • Meals
  • Temperature change • Thoughts
• Smoking etc.

Installing/Replacing Batteries

1. Insert the batteries into the battery compartment matching correct polarities „+“ and „-“.
2. Replace all batteries if the low battery indicator appears.
3. Remove the batteries if the unit will not be used for a long period of time.
4. REMOVE all of the BATTERIES when utilizing the optional AC adapter.

Note: It is recommended that the same type of alkaline batteries be used to avoid incompatibility.

GB

Please dispose of defective appliances and used batteries in compliance with statutory regulations (disposal in general household waste is prohibited!).

Attaching the Pressure Cuff

1. Wrap the cuff around the left arm. The arm should be bare skin.

1. Fasten the cuff. Don't pull it strongly and make the cuff too tight. The cuff's edge should be approximately 1 inch from crook of the arm.

1inch(2~3cm)

1. Attach the cuff on the right hand as shown in the figure if it is not possible to measure on the left hand.

1inch(2~3cm)

1. Measure and record blood pressure at the same time every day to establish your blood pressure pattern.

AC Adapter (optional accessory)

It is possible to use a stabilized AC adapter (output 6 V DC/800 mA) to operate the device.

GB

Note:

1. No power is taken from the batteries while the AC is connected to the device.
2. If AC adapter power is interrupted during measurement, the device must be reset by disconnecting the AC adapter from the device.
3. Please consult appropriate dealer if you have questions relating to the adapter.
