What to do if my Microlife BP3AA1-2 Blood Pressure Monitor shows Err 1?
If your Microlife Blood Pressure Monitor displays 'Err 1', it could be due to a couple of reasons: either the systolic pressure was determined but afterwards the cuff pressure fell below 20 mmHg (which can happen if the tube becomes unplugged after measuring systolic blood pressure), or no pulse could be detected. In either case, check the tube connections and repeat the measurement.
What to do if Microlife BP3AA1-2 shows Err 5?
If your Microlife Blood Pressure Monitor displays 'Err 5', it indicates an unacceptable difference between systolic and diastolic pressures in the measured readings. Take another reading following directions carefully. Contact your doctor if you continue to get unusual readings.
