☞ Further information
The level of blood pressure is subject to fluctuations even with healthy people. Important thereby is, that
comparable measurements always require the same conditions (rest conditions)!
You must consult your specialist dealer or chemist if there are technical problems with the blood pressure
instrument. Never attempt to repair the instrument yourself!
Any unauthorised opening of the instrument invalidates all guarantee claims!
7. Care and maintenance, recalibration
a) Do not expose the device to either extreme tempera-
tures, humidity, dust or direct sunlight.
b) The cuff contains a sensitive air-tight bubble. Handle
this carefully and avoid all types of straining through
twisting or buckling.
c) Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use
petrol, thinners or similar solvent. Spots on the cuff
can be removed carefully with a damp cloth and soap-
suds. The cuff must not be washed!
d) Handle the tube carefully. Do not pull on it. Likewise,
this is not to be buckled or laid over sharp edges.

Malfunction Remedy
The display remains empty when the in-
strument is switched on although the
batteries are in place. 1. Check whether the batteries are installed with the correct po-
larity and correct if necessary.
2. If the display is unusual, re-insert batteries or exchange them.
The pressure does not rise although the
pump is running. • Check the connection of the cuff tube and connect properly if
necessary.
The device frequently fails to measure
the blood pressure values, or the values
measured are too low (too high). 1. Fit the cuff correctly on the arm.
2. Before starting the measurement make sure that the cuff is
not fitted too tightly and that there is no rolled-up sleeve ex-
erting pressure on the arm above the measuring position.
Take off articles of clothing if necessary.
3. Measure the blood pressure again in complete peace and quiet.
Every measurement results in different
values although the device functions
normally and the values displayed. • Please read the following information and the points listed
under «Common sources of error». Repeat the measurement.
The blood pressure values measured dif-
fer from those measured by the doctor. • Record the daily development of the values and
consult your doctor about them.
