4
The classification corresponds to the following ranges defined by
international guidelines (ESH, ESC, JSH). Data in mmHg.
The higher value is the one that determines the evaluation.
Example: a blood pressure value of 140/80 mmHg or a value of
130/90 mmHg indicates «blood pressure too high».
Appearance of the irregular heartbeat (IHB) symbol
This symbol BT indicates that an irregular heartbeat was detected.
In this case, the measured blood pressure may deviate from your
actual blood pressure values. It is recommended to repeat the
measurement.
4. Data memory
This device automatically stores up to 99 measurement values for
each of the 2 users.
Select either user 1 or 2 by pressing the user button 5.
Viewing the stored values
Press the M-button 3 briefly, when the device is switched off. The
display first shows «M» BO, and «A»which stands for the average
of all stored values.
Pressing the M-button again displays the previous value. Pressing
the M-button repeatedly enables you to move from one stored
value to another.
Clearing all values
Make sure the correct user is activated.
If you are sure that you want to permanently remove all stored
values, hold down the M-button (the device must have been
switched off beforehand) until «CL ALL» appears and then
release the button. To permanently clear the memory, press the
MAM button while «CL ALL» is flashing. Individual values
cannot be cleared.
5. Battery indicator and battery change
Low battery
When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol
AQ will flash as soon as the device is switched on (partly filled
battery displayed). Although the device will continue to measure
reliably, you should obtain replacement batteries.
Flat battery - replacement
When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol AQ will flash as soon
as the device is switched on (flat battery displayed). You cannot
take any further measurements and must replace the batteries.
1. Open the battery compartment 9 at the back of the device.
2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the
symbols in the compartment.
3. To set date and time, follow the procedure described in Section
«1. Using the device for the first time».
Which batteries and which procedure?
Range Systolic Diastolic Recommendation
1. blood pressure
too high
≥135 ≥85 Seek medical
advice
2. blood pressure
elevated
130 - 134 80 - 84 Self-check
3. blood pressure
normal
<130 <80 Self-check
Information for the doctor in case of repeated appearance of
the IHB symbol:
This device is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also
measures the pulse during blood pressure measurement and
indicates when the heart rate is irregular.
Blood pressure readings with suboptimal cuff fit AR-A are
not considered in the average value.
Pay attention that the maximum memory capacity of 99
memories is not exceeded. When the 99 memory is full,
the oldest value is automatically overwritten with the
100 value. Values should be evaluated by a doctor before
the memory capacity is reached – otherwise data will be lost.
Cancel deletion: press ON/OFF button 1 while «CL
ALL» is flashing.
The memory retains all values although date and time must
be reset – the year number therefore flashes automatically
after the batteries are replaced.
Use 4 new, long-life 1.5 V, size AA alkaline batteries.
Do not use batteries beyond their date of expiry.
Remove batteries if the device is not going to be used for a
prolonged period.
