blood pressure

Influencing
and evaluating
readings

There are many factors that can influence blood pressure. Readings can be
affected seriously by stress, fear, heavy physical exertion or the time of day at
which the measurements are taken. Your personal blood pressure values are
subject to considerable fluctuation during the course of the day and the year.
These fluctuations are particularly pronounced in the case of patients suffering
from hypertension. Blood pressure is usually at its highest during physical exer-
tion and at its lowest at night when you are asleep.
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 influenced by
several factors. Smoking, consumption of alcohol, drugs and physical
exertion influence the measured values in various ways.
• Measure your blood pressure before meals.
• Before taking readings, allow yourself at least five 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.
Insertion: Open the battery compartment on the underside of the unit by
exerting gentle pressure in the direction indicated by the arrow, and insert the
four batteries included with the unit (alkaline batteries, AA type, LR 6).
Remember to insert the batteries as indicated in the diagram in the battery
compartment. Once the batteries are inserted correctly (or once the power unit
is plugged in), you should hear 2 beeps.
When the ON/OFF switch is activated
, you will hear 2 beeps and all the
symbols appear on the display for one second. Then the following appears:
- : - -
“. Replace the lid, pressing it until it snaps into place.
Removal:
If the voltage in the batteries drops below 5 - 4.5 V, the display shows the
battery symbol
. Switch the device off using the ON/OFF switch
and insert new batteries. Should the used batteries be jammed in the
compartment, use a pointed instrument, such as a ballpoint pen, to carefully
prise them out.
As soon as the voltage in the batteries drops below 4.25 - 0.25 V, the display
shows the battery symbol
. The device automatically switches off
immediately after this symbol appears. The device will not function until new
batteries are inserted.
