[. . . ] The CE mark further indicates that this blood pressure monitor meets the general requirements for electronic products as regards resistance to electromagnetic interference. Malfunctioning may however occur in the proximity of extremely strong electromagnetic fields. In accordance with the "Ordinance for Operators of Medical Products", a technical inspection must be carried out if this device is used for industrial or commercial purposes. GB GB DESCRIPTION AND FUNCTION OF PARTS A. Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and protective cover - Large easy-reading display - 5 functional symbols - Systolic [SYS/mmHg], Diastolic [DIA/mmHg], Mean [MAP/mmHg], Pulse [pul/min. ]and date & time display. [. . . ] Show the history of the MAP to your doctor may help providing more information for his reference to understand your situation. ! Important: Consult your doctor on Mean Arterial Pressure. OSCILLOMETRIC MEASURING METHOD please note: -Hypotension value is for reference only. -Blood pressure is considered high when either the diastolic or systolic blood pressure value exceeds normal range. -Consult a medical professional when blood-pressure values are outside of the normal range. This device adopts the Oscillometric Measuring Method to provide readings of not only Diastolic and Systolic blood pressure, but also, unique, Mean Arterial Pressure. The Oscillometric Measuring Method was first described by Marey in the late 1800s, several decades before Korotkoffs description of the auscultatory method. The Oscillometric Measuring Method is a good means to determine the systolic / diastolic / mean blood pressure based on the measurement of pressure oscillation during the cuff pressure deflation phase. 7 GB GB MEASUREMENT With the individual in a sitting position and with the cuff attached as previously mentioned, a blood pressure reading can be obtained. Note: - For accurate pressure measurement, take blood-pressure readings in a seated position. - Ensure that the lower arm is raised so that the upper edge of the cuff is on the same level as the heart. - Ideally, place the palm of the hand facing upwards. + + - - In order to ensure a proper measurement, sit quietly and avoid talking and moving the fingers and hand. Rapid movements or other activities may alter blood pressure readings. At any time, to stop the pressurizing process, press the " "Button; the cuff will stop inflating and air will exhaust from the unit. 8 HOW TO TAKE MEASUREMENT Refer to Fig1 Fig1 2sec Fig1 9 GB GB Note: 1. Clothing sleeves should be rolled up and the cuff should be wrapped on bare skin for correct measurements. In order to ensure accurate measurements, fasten the velcro strap securely around your wrist so there is no extra space between the cuff and the wrist. If the cuff is not wrapped tight enough, the measurement values will be inaccurate. This monitor will re-inflate automatically if the system detects that your body needs higher pressure to measure your blood pressure. Each reading will be saved to the memory automatically after each measurement. Up to 30 measurements can be stored to the memory. 2sec HOW TO RECALL VALUES FROM MEMORY Refer to Fig2 Fig 2 Note: a. The date & time of measurement will be shown in the memory of the same time. 10 HOW TO SET THE TIME Refer to Fig3 mode Fig 3 11 GB GB Note: 1. Press and hold the [ ]button for 2 seconds, the display will flash 12h or 24h. [. . . ] Doing so will terminate the unit's warranty and may cause damage. - If, one day, the device should not be required for further use, protect the environment by bringing it to your dealer or designated collection point for proper disposal.
