Funktionsprinzip:

The Fysic FB-50 blood pressure monitor is developed to easily and precisely measure your blood pressure.

By regularly checking your blood pressure at home, you can provide your doctor with valuable information about your actual everyday blood pressure.

DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY

This product meets the requirements of EC Directive 93/42/EEC

(Medical Equipment Directive).

C0123

The declaration of conformity is available on the website WWW.FYSIC.COM

STANDARD VALUES

Depending on the person and situation, a normal blood pressure is:

• lower value (DIA): < 90
• upper value (SYS): < 140

In case of 'light hypertension', the blood pressure is:

• lower value (DIA): 90-110
• upper value (SYS): 140-180

In case of 'serious hypertension', the blood pressure is:

• lower value (DIA): >110
• upper value (SYS): >180

During the entire day, our blood pressure is continuously undergoing changes. In the morning it rises heavily and at the end of the morning it goes down again. In the late afternoon our blood pressure rises yet again, while it settles on a low level at night.

This is why your measurements can vary when taken at different times of the day.

IMPORTANT

• This product is intended only for household use and for use by adults.
• Keep the product and batteries out of reach of children.
• People suffering from cardiac arrhythmia, vascular constriction, arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) in the upper or lower limbs, diabetes and heart patients with pacemakers should consult their doctor before measuring their blood pressure, because in these cases deviating blood pressure values could be measured.
  If you're undergoing medical treatment or if you're using medicine, we recommend you to always consult your doctor when in doubt.
• The use of this blood pressure monitor should not be regarded as a replacement for consulting your doctor.

POWER SUPPLY

Batteries:

1. Remove the battery compartment cover at the right side of the blood pressure monitor.
2. Insert 2 AA 1.5V batteries according to the correct polarity (see markings inside the battery compartment).

Due to insufficient voltage, never install rechargeable batteries.

1. Place the battery compartment cover back onto the blood pressure monitor.

Batteries are not included

Change the batteries as soon as the symbol appears in the display of when pressing the 0 / 1 button has no effect. Always replace all batteries at once.

We recommend you to remove the batteries from the blood pressure monitor when not using the FB-50 for a long period of time (>2 months).

Do not simply throw away empty or exhausted batteries, always hand them over to your local depot for Small Chemical Waste.

MEASURING

Guidelines for accurate measurements:

• Always take measurements at the same time of the day (preferably in the morning) and under the same conditions.
• Never take measurements within half an hour after drinking coffee or tea or after smoking a cigar or cigarette.
• Relax and sit down during measurements, don't speak or move. You should relax your arm and put it in front of you with the cuff at the height of your heart.

• Wait approx. 3 minutes before taking

• the next measurement.

• Blood circulation should not be impeded, tight clothing and other objects should be removed.

Attaching the cuff:

Remove clothing or roll up the sleeve, exposing the left wrist. With the left arm free of clothing and possibly a bracelet or watch, attach the cuff to the exposed wrist.

Make sure the cuff is resting approximately 1 cm underneath the palm of the hand.

Fold the cuff around the wrist and tighten it with the Velcro (don't over tighten).

Remark: Blood circulation towards the hand may not be impeded, tight articles of clothing and other objects should be removed.

Taking a measurement:

Attention: you can interrupt the measurement at any moment by pressing the 0/I button. The FB-50 will then switch itself off instantly and the cuff will deflate.

Rest the arm on e.g. a rolled-up towel to keep the blood pressure monitor at the height of your heart.

1. Press the 0/I button to turn on the FB-50.
2. The built-in pump will start to pressurize the cuff. It's possible for the pump to start again once or twice to build up some more pressure.

3. As soon as the desired pressure is reached, the pump will stop while the cuff gradually deflates;

4. while deflating, the blood pressure and heart rate are measured

5. when the measurement is finished, the display will show the blood pressure (both the systolic and diastolic blood pressure) and the heart rate while the cuff will fully deflate

• the measured blood pressure and heart rate are automatically stored in the memory

• The FB-50 will switch itself off automatically after 3 minutes of you can turn off the FB-50 quicker by pressing the 0/1 button.

MEMORY

Each measurement is automatically stored in the memory. The memory has a capacity for 90 measurements. When the memory is full, each new measurement will erase the oldest stored measurement.

Checking the memory:

• Press the M. button to display the average of the last 3 measurements.

• Press the M. button again, '01' will appear followed by the results of the last measurement.

• Press the M. button again, '02' will appear followed by the results of the second-to-last measurement.

• Repeat this for all previous measurements.

Erasing the memory:

Make sure to turn on the FB-50.
- Press and hold the M button for approx. 5 seconds until 'CLr' appears in the display. All measurements stored in the memory will now be deleted.

POSSIBLE PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONSGELIJKE
