Measurement
•
Using the Start/stop button , switch off the blood
pressure monitor. The measurement is then stored in
the selected user memory.
If you forget to turn off the device, it will switch off
automatically after approx. 3 minutes. In this case too,
the value is stored in the selected or most recently used
user memory.
•
Wait at least 5 minutes before taking an-
other measurement!
6. Evaluating results
Cardiac arrhythmia:
This instrument can identify possible cardiac arrhythmia disor-
ders during measurement and if necessary indicates the meas-
urement with the flashing icon .
This may be an indicator for arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is a condi-
tion where the heart rhythm is abnormal as a result of defects
in the bioelectrical system controlling the heart beat. The symp-
toms (omitted or premature heart beats, slow or excessively fast
heart rate) may be caused, among other things, by heart dis-
ease, age, physical predisposition, excessive use of stimulants,
stress or lack of sleep. Arrhythmia can only be ascertained
through examination by your doctor.
Repeat the measurement if the flashing icon is displayed
after the measurement. Please note that you should rest for
5 minutes between measurements and not talk or move dur-
ing the measurement. If the icon appears often, please
contact your doctor. Any self-diagnosis and treatment based
on the test results may be dangerous. It is vital to follow your
doctor‘s instructions.

Organization and the latest findings, the measurements can be
