Inserting batteries

Use alkaline batteries, type LR 03 (AAA) (e.g. Duracell Ultra) as supplied with this product or rechargeable batteries.

Remove the battery compartment cover (F) and insert two batteries with correct polarity (see symbol in the battery compartment (E)).

New batteries (Duracell Ultra) will provide approxi- mately 300 measurements.

Only discard empty batteries. They should not be disposed of in the household waste, but at appropriate collection sites or at your dealer.

Use of rechargeable batteries

In case rechargeable batteries are used, please note that the «battery low» symbol may appear earlier on the display than with alkaline batteries. However, this will not affect the measuring accuracy.

Key rules for accurate blood pressure measurements

While taking a measurement, sit down, relax, keep still, especially the hand of the measuring arm, do not move or speak.

Hold the appliance at heart level.
