off the instrument. (The monitor does switch off automatically

after approx. 1 min.).

4. Appearance of the Heart Arrhythmia Indicator for

early Detection

This symbol AN indicates that certain pulse irregularities were

detected during the measurement. In this case, the result may

deviate from your normal blood pressure – repeat the measure-

ment. In most cases, this is no cause for concern. However, if the

symbol appears on a regular basis (e.g. several times a week with

measurements taken daily) we advise you to tell your doctor.

Please show your doctor the following explanation:

5. Data Memory

This instrument always stores the last result at the end of the

measurement. To recall the reading, press and hold the ON/OFF

button 1 while the instrument is switched off. All display elements

are shown now. Release the button when the stored result with the

letter «M» is displayed.

6. Battery Indicator and Battery change

Low battery

When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol

will flash as soon as the instrument is switched on (partly filled battery

displayed). Although the instrument will continue to measure reliably,

you should obtain replacement batteries.

Flat battery – replacement

When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol

will flash as soon

as the instrument is switched on (flat battery displayed). You cannot

take any further measurements and must replace the batteries.

1. Open the battery compartment 6 at the back of the instrument.

2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the

symbols in the compartment.

Which batteries and which procedure?



Use 4 new, long-life 1.5V, size AA batteries.



Do not use batteries beyond their date of expiry.



Remove batteries if the instrument is not going to be used

for a prolonged period.

Using rechargeable batteries

You can also operate this instrument using rechargeable batteries.



Only use «NiMH» type reusable batteries.



Batteries must be removed and recharged when the flat

battery symbol appears. They should not remain inside the

instrument as they may become damaged (total discharge as

a result of low use of the instrument, even when switched off).



Always remove the rechargeable batteries if you do not

intend to use the instrument for a week or more.



Batteries cannot be charged in the blood pressure monitor.

Recharge batteries in an external charger and observe the

information regarding charging, care and durability.

Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the

Arrhythmia indicator

This instrument is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that

also analyses pulse frequency during measurement. The instru-

ment is clinically tested.

The arrhythmia symbol is displayed after the measurement, if

pulse irregularities occur during measurement. If the symbol

appears more frequently (e.g. several times per week on

measurements performed daily) we recommend the patient to

seek medical advice.

The instrument does not replace a cardiac examination, but

serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.
