USER MANUAL SBM 20 SANITAS

Withthebloodpressurecomputer,youcanmeasureyourbloodpressurequickly and easily, store the measurements and display their course and the average measurement. The computer is used for non-invasive measurement and monitoring of your arterial blood pressure levels. Regular checks on measurement precision must be carried out if the monitor is used for commercial purposes. ThecomputercomplieswiththerequirementsoftheEuropeanDirectiveforMedical Products, the German Medical Product Act as well as the European stand ards EN1060-1 (Non-invasive blood pressure measuring devices Part 1: General requirements)EN1060-3(Non-invasivebloodpressuremeasuringdevicesPart3:Sup- plementaryrequirementsforelectromechanicalbloodpressuremeasuringsystems), EN 1060-4 (non-invasive blood pressure monitors, Section 4: Test procedure for de- termining measurement precision). For private use also, we recommend that you have the measuring accuracy checked by the manufacturer at 2-yearly intervals. Keep these operating instructions available for further use and also make them available to other users.

5.3 Changing batteries

If the battery change is blinking, the batteries are already too low. Even though measurement is still possible, the batteries should be replaced soon. If the battery change is continuously illuminated, measurement is no longer possible and you mustreplaceallthebatteries.Oncebatterieshavebeenremovedfromthedevice, the time must be reset. Any measurement results that have been stored are however retained. Usedbatteriesdonotbelonginthehouseholdwaste.Youarelegally obliged to dispose of the batteries. Dispose of them via your specialist electrical supplier or local collecting point for recyclable waste. Note: Bat- teries containing pollutant substances are marked as follows: Pb = Battery contains lead, Cd = Battery contains cadmium, Hg = Battery contains mercury. The battery contained in this instrument is pollutant-free. PleasedisposeoftheapplianceinaccordancewiththeDirective2002/96/ECon WasteElectricalandElectronicEquipment(WEEE).Incaseofqueries,please contact the municipal authorities responsible for waste disposal in your area.

Fit the cuff round your bare left upper arm. Blood circulation in the arm should not be restricted by tight clothing or other objects.Thecuffshouldbeplacedontheupperarmsothat the lower edge is 2 to 3 cm above the bend of the elbow and above the artery. The tube should be in line with the centre of the palm. Now place the free end of the cuff snugly, but not too tightly, around the arm, and fix it with the Velcro fastener. The cuff shouldbefittedtightenoughtoallowjusttwofingerstofit beneath the cuff. Insert the cuff tubing into the socket for the cuff attachment. The blood pressure apparatus may only be used with the original cuff. The cuff is suitable for an arm cir- cumference of 22 to 32 cm. A larger cuff for upper arm circumferences from 32 to 42 cm is available from retailers or the service address under order no. 162.361.
