are physically frail, should be assisted by another
person when using this unit.
• Proper cuff size is important for accurate measure-
ments. Only use the device on adults who have the
right upper arm circumference for this instrument.
See section ’12. Specifications’ for suitable upper
arm circumferences.
• Do not use any cuffs, tubes, parts and accessor-
ies other than those explicitly recommended by
the manufacturer for use with this product. Parts
and accessories not approved for use with the de-
vice may cause damage to your health and to the
product.
• Electromagnetic interference: Avoid strong elec-
trical or electromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity
of the device (e.g. mobile telephones, microwave
ovens) while it is in operation, as inaccurate meas-
urements may result. To prevent such interference,
use the unit at a sufficient distance from such de-
vices or turn the devices off.
• The blood pressure monitor must not be used in
connection with a high-frequency surgical unit.
• Do not measure your blood pressure while oper-
ating a vehicle or in any situation which requires
your full attention.
• During the blood pressure measurement, blood
circulation must not be stopped for an unneces-
sarily long time. If the device malfunctions, remove
the cuff from the arm.
• Avoid any mechanical restriction, compression or
bending of the cuff line.
• Do not allow sustained pressure in the cuff or fre-
quent measurements. The resulting restriction of
the blood flow may cause injury.

which the arteries or veins are undergoing medical
treatment, e.g. intravascular access or therapy, or
an arteriovenous (AV) shunt.
• Do not use the cuff on people who have undergone
a mastectomy.
CAUTION:
• The device should not be used when your arm has
been wounded/injured or when a catheter has been
inserted. Such use may result in injury.
