•A beep is heard and the number 0 flashes on the display. Shortly afterwards, the armband is pumped up to 185 mmHg, while the pressure is continuously shown on the display. The blood pressure monitor buzzes while the armband is being pumped up.
•When the armband is pumped up to 185 mmHg, the displayed figure falls again and the blood pressure reading starts. The blood pressure monitor emits a number of beeps while the reading is being taken. The pulse is also measured, and the pulse symbol (c) is shown on the display. The armband is automatically pumped up if the pressure is too low.
•Once the blood pressure reading has been taken, a long beep is heard and the display shows the systolic pressure (a), the diastolic pressure (b), the pulse (g) and the time. There is also a symbol for the range the measured blood pressure falls under: hypotension (k), normal (l), high normal (m) or hypertension (n). The results are shown on the display for around 3 minutes and then deleted. You can also delete them by pressing the I/O/Start button again.
•If you need to take several readings, you should wait
•Please note! An individual reading says nothing about your state of health. You can only get an idea of this after a number of readings.
Storing blood pressure readings
•The blood pressure monitor can store 80 blood pressure readings in two groups of 40 readings. Once you have taken a blood pressure reading and the results are shown on the display, you can press the M1 button to save the reading in group 1 or M2 to save the reading in group 2.
•The display shows MEMO, a beep is heard and the reading is saved.
Displaying saved blood pressure readings
•Press the M1 button to display the saved blood pressure readings in group 1 or the M2 button to display the saved blood pressure readings in group 2.
•The first reading in the selected group is displayed for approximately 4 seconds. The display shows all the data for the reading plus the reading number (j).
•Press M1/M2 repeatedly to display the subsequent readings in the selected group. Press and hold the button to scroll through the readings. The reading number is always displayed.
•The blood pressure monitor automatically changes back to the time display. If required, press the T button to change back more rapidly.
