6. ERROR MESSAGES/MALFUNCTIONS
If an error occurs during a measurement, the measurement is dis-
continued and a corresponding error code is displayed (example:
error no. 1):
Error n° Possible cause(s)
Err 1
Err 2
Err 3
Err 5
Err 6
The systolic pressure was determined but afterwards the cuff pressure fell below 20
mmHg. This situation can occur, for example, if the tube becomes unplugged after
the systolic blood pressure has been measured. Further possible cause: No pulse
has been detected.
Unnatural pressure impulses impair the result of the measurement.
Cause: the arm was moved during the measurement (artefact).
Inflation of the cuff takes too long.
Cause: 1) The cuff is not correctly seated or the hose connection is not sealed.
2) The cuff could be damaged, change it.
The measured readings indicated an unacceptable difference between systolic and
diastolic pressures. Take another reading following directions carefully. Contact
you doctor if you continue to get unusual readings.
Due to unstable conditions during measurements, it is not possible to calculate an
average result.

ton is pressed for a period of 3 minutes the devi-
ce switches itself off in order to preserve the bat-
teries.
5.6. Discontinuing a measurement
If it is necessary to interrupt a blood pressure mea-
surement for any reason (e.g. the patient feels unwell),
the O/I button can simply be pressed at any time. You
can also close the flip to turn off the device. The devi-
ce immediately reduces the cuff pressure.
5.7. Memory – displaying the last measurement
The measured results are stored in the device until a
new measurement is carried out or the batteries are
removed. You can call up the stored values at any time
when the flip is open by pressing the O/I button for at
least 3 sec.
Further information
Wait for several minutes in a relaxed position, sitting or lying, before you repeat a
measurement.
