• Check battery installation or AC
adapter connection is correct and
wall outlet is working.
• If the display is unusual, remove the
batteries and then exchange them for
new ones.
Check polarity.
• Check the connection of the cuff tube
and connect properly.
1. Ensure the cuff fits properly. (see 5.3)
2. Before starting measurement make
sure that the cuff is not too tight and
that clothing is not exerting pressure
on the arm. Take articles of clothing
off if necessary.
3. Measure blood pressure again in
complete peace and quiet.
• Please read the following information
and the points listed under “Common
sources of error”.(5.2) Repeat the
measurement.
• Blood pressure changes constantly.
The observed readings may accu
rately reflect your pressure.
• Record daily values and consult
your doctor.
• Pressure readings in your doctor’s
office may be higher due to anxiety.
• Check cuff connections.
Ensure the unit has not been
tampered with.
The display remains blank when the instru-
ment is switched on although the batteries
are in place.
The pressure does not rise although the
pump is running.
The device frequently fails to measure,
or the values measured are too low or high.
Every measurement results in different val-
ues, although the device functions normally
and normal values are displayed.
Blood pressure values differ from those
measured by my doctor.
After the instrument has inflated the cuff
the pressure falls very slowly, or not at all.
(No reasonable measurement possible).
