WARNING
1 When the alarm is set to Off, the monitor won’t give an alarm prompt even if an alarm
occurs. In order to avoid endangering the patient’s life, the user should use this
function cautiously.
2 Prior to monitoring, make sure that the alarm limit settings are appropriate for your
patient.
3 Setting alarm limits to extreme values may cause the alarm system to become
ineffective. It is recommended to use the default settings.
4 In HR alarm limit setting process, the bottom will display ExtremeTachy or
ExtremeBrady threshold value that has been set. HR high alarm limit should be less
than or equal to ExtremeTachy threshold value, and HR low alarm limit should be
