After the self test, during which all display elements are

briefly displayed, measurement begins. The pressure is

increased to 180 mmHg. If this pressure is insufficient, the

device automatically pumps an extra 30 mmHg.

•

When the measurement has been taken, the remaining air

pressure dissipates very quickly. It displays pulse, systolic

and diastolic blood pressure as well as the resting indicator

(see Chapter 5.5).

•

Now use the M1 and M2 memory buttons to select the

desired user memory. If you do not select a user memory, the

measurement is stored in the most recently used user mem-

ory. The relevant symbol

appears in the display.

•

Using the start/stop button, switch off the blood pressure

monitor. The measurement is then stored in the selected user

memory. If you forget to turn off the device, it will switch off

automatically after approx. 3 minutes. In this case too, the

value is stored in the selected user memory.

•

You can interrupt measurement at any time by pressing the

start/stop button

. Wait at least 5 minutes before taking

another measurement!

5.4 Evaluating results

Cardiac arrhythmia:

This instrument can identify possible cardiac arrhythmia disor-

ders during measurement and if necessary indicates the meas-

urement with the icon

This may be an indicator for arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is a condi-

tion where the heart rhythm is abnormal as a result of defects

in the bioelectrical system controlling the heart beat. The

symptoms (omitted or premature heart beats, slow or exces-

sively fast heart rate) may be caused, among other things,

by heart disease, age, physical predisposition, excessive use

of stimulants, stress or lack of sleep. Arrhythmia can only be

ascertained through examination by your doctor. Repeat the

measurement if the flashing icon is displayed after the

measurement. Please note that you should rest for 5 minutes

between measurements and not talk or move during the meas-

urement. If the icon

appears often, please contact your

doctor. Any self-diagnosis and treatment based on the test

results may be dangerous.

It is vital to follow your doctor’s instructions.

WHO classification:

In accordance with the guidelines/definitions of the World

Heath Organization and the latest findings, the measurements

can be classified and assessed according to the following

table.

However, these standard values serve only as a general guide-

line, as the individual blood pressure varies in different people

and different age groups etc.

It is important to consult your doctor regularly for advice. Your

doctor will tell you your individual values for normal blood pres-

sure as well as the value above which your blood pressure is

classified as dangerous.
