What you should know about this blood pressure monitor
For accurate measurements, all wrist blood pressure monitors must be positioned at heart level.
Example: If the monitor is positioned 20 cm below heart level as shown on the left (e.g. by putting the arm on a table), the reading you will obtain is approximately
15 mmHg too high.
Therefore, the Braun SensorControl has a unique positioning system: The position sensor icon (A) on the display guides you to hold your measuring arm in the right position at heart level.
Additionally, your blood pressure monitor offers the following benefits:
•Easy handling due to large buttons and the large display.
•Automatic storage of the last 60 readings consisting of blood pressure values, pulse, date and time of measurement.
•Comfort cuff.
•To ensure accurate measuring results, carefully read these instructions.
•This product is intended for household use only. Keep product and batteries away from children.
•People suffering from cardiac arrhythmia, vascular constriction, arteriosclerosis in extremities, diabetes or users of cardiac pacemakers should consult their doctor before measuring their blood pressure them- selves, since deviations in blood pressure values may occur in such cases.
•Please consult your doctor in case of any doubt, especially if you are under medical treatment or receiving medication.
•The use of this blood pressure monitor is not intended as a substitute for consultation with your doctor.
