The WHO classification in the display shows the range of the
measured blood pressure.
If the values for systolic and diastolic pressure are in two differ-
ent WHO ranges (e.g. systolic in the grade hypertension range
and diastolic pressure in the normal range), the WHO classi-
fication on the unit always indicates the higher range (grade
hypertension in the example described).
6. Saving, retrieving and deleting results
The computer automatically saves the blood pressure readings
of the last 50 measurements. When the 50 memory locations
are exceeded, the current oldest value is deleted.
You can display the memory as follows:
•
Press the user selection button to select a memory
zone, and press the M key to switch from memory to mem-
ory with sequence numbers.
•
The saved measured values are continuously stored.
•
Press the On/Off switch
to turn the unit off.
•
If you forget to switch off the computer, it will switch off auto-
matically after 1 minute.
Press the user selection button
to select a memory
zone, then press and hold the M key for approximately 5-sec-
onds to clear the data in the pre-designated memory zone.
The data in both memory zones – zone 1 and zone 2 may be
erased if any of the batteries is removed.
7. Cleaning and storing the instrument
•
Clean your device and cuff carefully only with a slightly mois-
tened cloth.
•
Do not use detergents or solvents.
•
On no account must you immerse the computer in water,
otherwise liquid can enter it and cause demage.
•
When storing the device, make sure that no heavy objects
are placed on top of it. Remove the batteries. The cuff tube
should not have any sharp kinks.
8. Rectifying faults
Error messages can occur when
•
the blood-pressure value is unusually high or low ( appears
in the display),
•
you move or talk during the measurement ( appears in the
display),
•
the cuff tube is not properly inserted ( appears in the dis-
play),
•
inflation takes longer than 20 seconds ( appears in the
display),
•
the inflation pressure is higher than 300 mmHg ( appears
in the display),
•
an error occurs when storing the measured values (
appears in the display),
•
exceeding measurement range ( appears in the display).
In the about cases, you must repeat the measurement. Make sure
that the cuff tube is properly inserted and that you do not move or
talk. Put the batteries back in if necessary, or else replace them.
