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.

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

immediately after this symbol appears. The device will not function until new
