This device has motion tolerant software that minimizes the likelihood of motion artifact being misinterpreted as
good pulse quality. In some circumstances, however, the device may still interpret motion as good pulse quality.
Check the pulse oximeter sensor application site every 6-8 hours to determine the positioning of the sensor and the
circulation and skin sensitivity of the patient. Patient sensitivity varies depending on medical status or skin condition.
Do not place liquids on top of this device.

The pulse oximeter may not work when circulation is reduced. Warm or rub the finger or reposition the sensor.
A functional tester cannot be used to assess the accuracy of the oximeter or sensor.
Do not fasten the device too tightly around the patient’s wrist. Inaccurate readings and patient discomfort could
result.
