Frequently Asked Questions - BD4603 ALB Levita

How to set the date and time?

With the device off, press and hold the S button for 3 seconds to enter year setting. Use M to change the value, then S to confirm. Repeat for month, day, hour, minutes, and unit (kPa or mmHg).

How to select a user?

When the monitor is off, press S to enter user selection mode. Press S again to choose between User 1 and User 2. Then press the Start/Stop button to confirm.

How to put on the cuff?

Place your left arm through the cuff loop, with the lower edge about 1.5 cm above the elbow. The tube should align with the brachial artery. Tighten with the velcro. The cuff should be at heart level.

How to take a measurement?

Insert the batteries, sit comfortably, arm relaxed on a table. Press the Start/Stop button. The cuff inflates then deflates slowly. At the end, systolic, diastolic pressure and pulse are displayed. The device turns off automatically after 1 minute.

What does the IHB symbol (irregular heartbeat) mean?

The IHB symbol appears if an irregular pulse is detected (more than 25% deviation from the average). This may be due to movement, talking, or arrhythmia. If the symbol appears frequently, consult a doctor. This function does not replace a medical diagnosis.

How to delete records?

In record review mode, press and hold the M and S buttons simultaneously until 'dEL EL ALL' is displayed. Press S to confirm deletion. To cancel, press Start/Stop before confirmation.

What to do if the screen shows 'E1'?

Error E1 indicates that the cuff is not properly attached. Check the cuff position and take another measurement. If the problem persists, consult the manual.

How to clean the blood pressure monitor?

Use a soft damp cloth with a mild cleaning agent. Do not use strong detergents. For the cuff, wipe with a dry cloth. Do not immerse in water.

What are the blood pressure levels according to WHO?

The device classifies blood pressure into 6 levels: Optimal (<120/80), Normal (120-129/80-84), High-Normal (130-139/85-89), Mild Hypertension (140-159/90-99), Moderate Hypertension (160-179/100-109), Severe Hypertension (≥180/≥110). Each level is indicated by a color and a bar.

What is the warranty period?

The warranty is 36 months from the date of purchase. It does not cover batteries or damage due to misuse. For any defects, return the device with proof of purchase to an authorized service center.

5 Blood pressure

5.1 Measurement Principle

This product uses the Oscillometric Measuring method to detect blood pressure. Before every measurement, the unit establishes a “zero pressure” equivalent to the air pressure. Then it starts inflating the arm cuff, meanwhile, the unit detects pressure oscillations generated by beat-to-beat pulsatile, which is used to determine the systolic and diastolic pressure, and also pulse rate. The device also compares the longest and the shortest time intervals of detected pulse waves to mean time interval then calculates standard deviation. The device will display a warning signal with the reading to indicate the detection of irregular heartbeat when the difference of the time intervals is over 25%.

5.2 What is Blood Pressure?

Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the artery tube while blood flows through the arteries. The pressure measured when the heart contracts and sends blood out of the heart is systolic (highest). The pressure measured when

the heart dilates with blood flowing back into the heart is called diastolic (lowest) blood pressure.

5.3 Why Measure Your Blood Pressure?

Among the various health problems afflicting modern people, problems associated with high blood pressure are by far the most common. High blood pressure's dangerously strong correlation with cardiovascular diseases and high morbidity has made measuring blood pressures a necessity of identifying those at risk.

5.4 Blood Pressure Standard

This device is equipped with a WHO Blood Pressure Indicator which classifies your blood pressure measurements into six stages (Optimal to Severe hypertension) based on WHO classification on blood pressure levels as shown in below chart.

After each measurement is completed, the LCD display will show your position automatically on the six segments of the bar indicator which corresponds to WHO Blood Pressure Indicator.

Stages of blood pressure levels Indicator Systolic			in mmHg	Diastolic in mmHg	Our recommendation
Grade 3- Severe hypertension Red			>180 11	0 >	Take medical treatment at once
Grade 2 - Moderate hypertension	Orange 160 ~ 179 100 ~109 Seek medical advice
Grade 1 - Mild hypertension Yellow	w 140 ~ 159 90 ~ 99 Check it regularly by doctor
High - normal Green 3	130 ~ 139 85 ~ 89 Check it regularly by doctor
Normal	Green 2		120 ~ 129	80 ~ 84 Check it yourself
Optimal	Green 1		< 120	< 80	Check it yourself

5.5 Irregular Heartbeat Detector (IHB)

The symbol 🤨 will appear on the display, indicating a certain heartbeat irregularity was detected during measurement. The heartbeat rhythm that is more than or less than 25% from the average rhythm is usually defined as an irregular heartbeat rhythm. Talking, moving, shaking or an irregular pulse during the measurement can result in the appearance of this symbol.

Usually this is not a cause for concern, however if the symbol appears often, we recommend you seek medical advice and please note that the device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.

• No Irregular Heartbeat Detector measurement will be stored in memory.
- The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart pacemarkes. If a certain pulse irregularity is detected during measurement often, we recommend you seek medical advice.
• However, as a safeguard, we recommend that if you have arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature beats and atrial fibrillation or any other special conditions you should check with your physician before using your device.
- The IHB function is not designed for use by people with arrhythmias nor for diagnosing or treating an arrhythmic problem. In order to filter the unstable status of user and avoid affecting the detection of heart rate from any movement, shaking or talking in the beginning of measurement, the method of averaging heart beat intervals for subject device is calculated with the three proper heart beat pulses detected in the beginning of measurement and that is different from a strict mathematical averaging of all recorded intervals.
- At least 3 beats with at least 25% difference from the average heart beat interval will generate the IHB icon on the screen.

11 Applying the cuff

1. Remove all watches, jewellery, etc. prior to attaching the Arm cuff.
2. Press your brachial artery by two fingers approximately 2,5 cm above the elbow on the inside of your left arm to determine where your strongest pulse is.
3. Slide the end of arm cuff furthest from the tube through the metal ring to a loop. The smooth cloth should be on the inside of the cuff. The Velcro will be on the outside of the cuff.
4. Put the left arm through the cuff loop. The bottom of the cuff should be approx. 1,5 cm above the elbow. The cuff should lie over the brachial artery on the inside of the arm.
5. Pull the cuff so that the top and bottom edges are tightened around your arm.
6. When the cuff is positioned properly, press the Velcro firmly against the pile side of the cuff. The metal ring will not touch your skin.
7. Relax your entire body, especially the area between your elbow and fingers. Place your elbow on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart. Avoid leaning back while the measurement is being taken.

12 Taking measurement

• When the batteries are installed.
• Press the start/stop button to start measurement. After all segments are displayed, the cuff will inflate to a level that is right for you.
• If the cuff doesn't stop inflating, remove the cuff immediately. To stop the measurement, press start/stop button. The cuff will deflate right after.

• After the initial inflation of the cuff, the pressure will slowly decrease and when a pulse is detected, the heart rate symbol will start flashing.

- When the measurement is finished, the systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, heart rate and WHO indicator will be displayed and saved.

- Press the start/stop button to power off otherwise the monitor will automatically turn off after 1 minute if no button is pressed.
