HOW TO USE

About each indicators

To perform a correct measurement, this unit provides a movement detection function and an irregular pulse warning function. When the indicators appear, the correct measurement might not have been obtained. If any indicator appears, it is recommended to repeat the measurement. Stay calm and relax for four to five minutes, before perfoming a new measurement.

**The "" and "" indicator will be recorded together with the measurement value.

Movement detection function

The movement detection function is to indicate, with

, extra pressure on the cuff caused by movements of the arm during the measurement. When movement is detected and the measurement is completed, the indicator is displayed after flashing for approx. 6 seconds.

If the movements exceed acceptable levels, no reliable measurement can be performed and the error message "U 12" will be displayed.

Irregular pulse warning function

If the pulse rate varies by more than ±25 % from the

average while a measurement is being taken, will be displayed when the measurement is completed. The indicator is displayed after flashing for approx. 6 seconds.

If the indicator is displayed an irregular pulse rate is detected, which is not necessarily caused by arrhythmia.

●● Don’t try to interpret readings or attempt to treat any condition yourself. Always follow the guidance of a health professional.

●● However if this indicator continues to display, consult your physician.

Advice:

In general, blood pressure measurements are lower for the second measurement because you are less nervous and are more tranquil. For people who easily get tense, measuring twice each time is very effective. It is recommended to store all values when performing two measurements or more. When taking two measurements, always stay quiet for 4 to 5 minutes after the first measurement before taking the second measurement.
