Further information
The level of blood-pressure is subject to fluctuations even with healthy people.
Important thereby is, that comparable measurements always require the same
conditions (Quiet conditions)!
If, in spite of observing all these factors, the fluctuations are larger than 15mmHg,
and/or you hear irregular pulse tones on several occasions, please consult your
doctor.
Other possible malfunctions and their elimination
If problems occur when using the device, the following points should be checked
and if necessary, the corresponding measures are to be taken:
The instrument frequently fails to
measure the blood pressure
values, or the values measured
are too low (too high).
Every measurement produces a
different value although the
instrument functions normally and
the values displayed are normal.
The blood pressure values mea-
sured differ from those measured
by the doctor.
1) Fit the cuff correctly on the arm.
2) Before starting the measurement make sure that the
cuff is not fitted too tightly and that there is no rolled-
up sleeve exerting pressure on the arm above the
measuring position. Take off articles of clothing if
necessary.
3) Measure the blood pressure again in complete peace
and quiet.
1) Please read the following information and the points
listed under ”Common sources of error”. Repeat the
measurement.
Please note: Blood pressure fluctuates continually
so successive measurements will show some variability.
1) Record the daily development of the values and con-
sult your doctor about them.
Please note: Individuals visiting their doctor fre-
quently experience anxiety which can result in a
higher reading at the doctor than obtained at home
under resting conditions.
Malfunction Remedy
The display remains empty when
the instrument is switched on
although the batteries are in
place.
1) Check whether the batteries are installed with the cor-
rect polarity and correct if necessary.
2) If the display is unusual, remove the batteries and then
them, or exchange them for new.
The pressure does not rise although
the pumping ball is pressed.
1) Check the connection of the cuff tube and connect
properly if necessary.
2) The cuff could be damaged, change it.
