or failures. This device is not suitable during intravenous injection to limbs or during dialysis treatment.

• The device is not suitable for use on pregnant women, patients with implanted, electronical devices (e.g. pacemaker or

debrillator), patients with pre-eclampsia, premature ventricular beats, atrial brillation, peripheral, arterial disease and

patients undergoing intravascular therapy or arterio-venous shunt or people who received a mastectomy. Please consult

your doctor prior to using the unit if you su󰀨er from illnesses.

• If you su󰀨er from circulation problems, arteriosclerosis, diabetes, liver disease, kidney disease, severe hypertension or

peripheral circulation problems, consult your doctor before using the device.

• This device is intended for non-invasive measuring and monitoring of arterial blood pressure on the upper arm. It is not

intended for use on extremities other than the upper arm or for functions other than obtaining a blood pressure measurement.

• Do not take any therapeutic measures on the basis of a self measurement. Never alter the dose of a medicine prescribed

by a doctor. If you are taking medication,consult your physician to determine the most appropriate time to measure your

blood pressure. Contact your doctor if you have any further questions about blood pressure measurement with this device.

• Irregularity of pulse or arrhythmia can lead to di󰀩culties in recording a correct reading when measurements are taken using

oscillometric blood pressure devices. This device is electronically equipped to detect irregular heartbeat, which it indicates

with the icon e. In this case, contact your physician.

• Pay attention during use and storage, that cable and air hose will not cause strangulation. To reduce the risk of strangulation,

keep this product away from children and do not place the hose around the neck.

• Never bend the air hose during use as this may lead to injuries. Also never squeeze or block the air hose in any way.

How is blood pressure measured?

This medisana blood pressure monitor is a device, which is used to measure blood pressure at the upper arm. The measurement

is carried out by a microprocessor - already during the inating process of the cu󰀨. The device detects the systole and the

measurement is completed earlier than using conventional measurement methods. As a result, an unnecessarily excessive

ination pressure in the cu󰀨 is prevented.

Blood pressure classication

systolic mmHg diastolic mmHg Bloodpressure indicator t

≥ 180 ≥ 110 serious hypertension red

160 - 179 100 - 109 medium hypertension orange

140 - 159 90 - 99 mild hypertension yellow

130 - 139 85 - 89 high-normal blood pressure green

120 - 129 80 - 84 normal blood pressure green

< 120 < 80 optimal blood pressure green

WARNING - Blood pressure that is too low represents just as great a health risk as blood

pressure that is too high! Fits of dizziness may lead to dangerous situations arising (e.g. on

stairs or in tra󰀩c)!

Inuencing and evaluating readings

• Measure your blood pressure several times, then record and compare the results. Do not draw any conclusions from a single

reading.

• Your blood pressure readings should always be evaluated by a doctor who is also familiar with your personal medical history.

When using the unit regularly and recording the values for your doctor, you should visit the doctor from time to time to keep

him updated.

• When taking readings, remember that the daily values are inuenced by several factors. Smoking, consumption of alcohol,

drugs and physical exertion inuence the measured values in various ways.

• Measure your blood pressure before meals.

• Before taking readings, allow yourself at least ve minutes rest.

• If the systolic and diastolic readings seem unusual (too high or too low) on several occasions, despite correct use of the unit,

please inform your doctor. This also applies to the rare occasions when an irregular or very weak pulse prevents you from

taking readings.

Getting started - Inserting/changing batteries

You must insert the batteries provided before you can use your unit. The lid of the battery compartment 3 is located on the

underside of the unit. Open it, remove it and insert the 4 x 1,5 V batteries, type AAA / LR03 supplied. Ensure correct polarity
