Important environmental information about this product

This symbol on the device or the package indicates that disposal of the device after its lifecycle could harm the environment.

Do not dispose of the unit (or batteries) as unsorted municipal waste; it should be taken to a specialized company for recycling.

This device should be returned to your distributor or to a local recycling service.

Respect the local environmental rules.

If in doubt, contact your local waste disposal authorities.

Thank you for choosing Velleman! Please read the manual thoroughly before bringing this device into service. If the device was damaged in transit, don't install or use it and contact your dealer.

2. Safety Instructions

This instrument will not be used as a cure of any heart disease symptom. Use the measuring data as reference only. Always consult a physician if any measuring results are to be interpreted.
- Always follow the operation procedures described in the manual when measuring blood pressure.
- Do not start inflation when the wrist cuff is not wrapped around the wrist.
- Do not drop this unit and preserve it from shocks and abuse.
- Store this manual for future reference.
- Diseases such as diabetes and hyperlipidaemia accelerate the hardening of the arteries. If such conditions persist, there is an increased danger of apoplexy and coronary infarction, arterial stenosis and disorder in peripheral blood circulation. In such cases, there will be a large difference between blood pressure values at the wrist and the upper arm. Since even healthy persons may show a difference of 20mmHg if the conditions of the measurement are not suitable, do not rely on the self-diagnosis and follow the advice of a physician.

Physiological conditions may have varying degree of effect but generally blood pressure values at the wrist and upper arm should display the same pattern of change. Consequently, it is possible to monitor trends in change by measuring blood pressure at the wrist.

3. Contradictions

• Do not use this device with infants and persons who cannot communicate, which may lead to serious accidents.
• Do not use this device for purposes other than measuring blood pressure.
• Do not use this device near mobile phones or microwave ovens as this may lead to reading errors.
• Do not try to disassemble or modify the unit or wrist cuff as this may lead to permanent reading errors.

4. Warning

• The device may show reading errors in the presence of common arrhythmia such as atrial or ventricular premature beats or atrial fibrillation.
  Take the batteries out of the housing if the unit is not to be used for a long time.
• Do not immerse the unit on water.
• The device does not contain formaldehyde and will not cause irritation when it comes in contact with skin or eyes.
• Store the unit in a dry and cool place within the storage environment range. Do not twist the tubing.
• Do not use different battery types, dates or brands at the same time as this may lead to reading errors.
• Leaving the batteries in the housing for an extended period of time may damage the unit. Be careful and observe following points:

o use alkaline batteries for the best performance and the longest life:
o remove the batteries when the unit is not used;
immediately replace drained batteries with new ones;
o do not use new and old batteries at the same time.

• Never stretch, bend or tug on the wrist cuff.
• Do not store the unit in direct sunlight, or in a humid, dusty or corrosive environment with high temperatures.
• Do not use benzene, gasoline or alcohol agent to clean the device.
• The unit might not meet its performance specifications if stored or used outside the specified temperature and humidity ranges:

o operating conditions: 50^ 115^ (10^ +45^) 30% 85% RH;
storage conditions: 15^ 140^ (-10°C~+60°C), 10%~95% RH.

5. Health and Blood Pressure Values

The blood pressure of the human body increases naturally from middle age onwards. This is due to the continuing ageing of the blood vessels, obesity, lack of exercise, cholesterol (LDL)

CBP1_v2 PEREL 4

adhering to the blood vessels, etc. With a higher blood pressure, arteriosclerosis will accelerate and the body becomes more susceptible to apoplexy and coronary infarction. This is why we regularly need to know our blood pressure which fluctuates constantly throughout daily life and is an essential element in daily health control. Use following diagram as health reference:

Range	Systolic	Diastolic
Hypertension > 160mmHg > 95mmHg
Borderline	140~160mmHg	90~95mmHg
Normal	90~140mmHg	<
Hypotension	<	90mmHg

6. Suggestions before Measuring

• Sit or lie down for at least 10 minutes before measuring.
• Avoid caffeine, alcohol, smoking, exercising, bathing, drinking and eating for at least 30 minutes before measuring.
• Avoid measuring when feeling anxiety or tension.
• Avoid urination and bowel movement before measuring.
• In order to read the accurate value, please sit or lie down to measure. Rest your left arm on the table and use a cushion or pillow as bolster. Face the left palm upwards and keep the cuff at the same level as your heart.
• Keep calm and relax yourself. Avoid talking when measuring.
  Take a 10-minute break before measuring again.
• Keep the measured values for your physician as reference.
• Remember that only long-term measured values will provide good blood pressure records

10. Battery Installation

1. Turn off the unit first and slide the battery cover in the direction of the arrow.
2. Insert or replace 2 x AAA-size alkaline batteries respecting the polarity.
3. Slide the battery cover back in place.
4. Change batteries when appears on the display.

Warning:

• Use only fresh alkaline batteries of the required size and type.
• Remove the batteries if the unit is not to be used for a long time. The batteries can leak chemicals that can damage the unit's circuits.
• Check the batteries periodically and replace if necessary.

11. Programming Date and Time

1. Turn off the unit first and hold the reset button until 003 appears.
2. Set the year using the M button. Press the reset button to switch to the months.
3. Set the months using the M button. Continue to set the date and to time as per above. You must set reset the time after each battery replacement.

12. Applying the Wrist Cuff

1. Hold your left arm in front of you with your palm facing upwards. Apply the cuff so that the monitor is on the inside of your wrist.
2. Place the edge of the cuff at approximately 1/4 1/2 (0.5~1.5cm) of the palm.
3. Wrap the cuff comfortably around the wrist. The top and bottom edges of the cuff should be tightened evenly around the wrist.
4. When the cuff is positioned correctly, secure by pressing both bands firmly together.

13. Correct Measuring Position

It is extremely important, in order to obtain correct values that the cuff be at the same level of the heart. A higher or deeper position may give deviations from the true value.

1. Place your elbow on the table. Make sure the cuff is at the same level as the heart.
2. Relax your hand with the palm facing up.

14. How to take Measurements

1. Press the button. The unit will start to inflate the cuff after the initial test procedure. The number will appear on the LCD.

Simply press the button to take the reading if the unit is already switched on.

1. The cuff inflates to approximately 160mmHg (approximately 40mmHg higher than the average systolic blood pressure reading). The increasing symbol appears on the LCD.
2. As soon as the cuff reaches the required inflation level, it begins to deflate automatically. As the cuff deflates, the decreasing symbol appears on the LCD. The heart symbol flashes.
3. The cuff is deflated as soon as the measurement is complete. The heart symbol stops flashing and your blood pressure and pulse will be displayed on the LCD for two minutes.

15. How to Use the Unit's Memory

The measured blood pressure and pulse rate readings are automatically stored in the unit's memory. The memory can store up to 128 measurement sets. When full, the oldest readings are overwritten.

1. Press M to call a previously memorized reading. The number of memorized sets will first appear. Next, the systolic and diastolic blood pressure, the pulse rate and the date/time will be displayed in the LCD.
2. Press M to switch between the different sets. The unit will automatically switch off after approximately 3 minutes or press to switch off.

16. Erasing the Memory

1. Make sure the unit is switched off.
2. Hold M pressed for 3 seconds to clear all the memorized sets. The number will appear on the LCD to indicate all sets have been cleared.

17.Maintenance

Storage
