3.11 Setting the Alarm
This blood pressure monitor allows you to set two alarm times at which an alarm signal will then be triggered. This
can be a useful aid, for instance as a reminder to take your measurements for the Protocol Software (7D Mode) or to
remind you to take medication.
1. To set the alarm, while the monitor is OFF, press the SET button 9 times, you will see “

digits will flash, press the MEM button to change the HOUR digits. Press the SET button to confirm.
2. Next the MINUTE digits will flash, press the MEM button to change the digits, press SET to confirm.
3. Next OFF will flash, press the MEM button to switch between ON and OFF. Press the SET button to confirm.
4. Once Alarm 1 is set, you can follow the same steps above to set Alarm 2.
