• Do not allow sustained pressure in the cuff or frequent
measurements. The resulting restriction of the blood flow
may cause injury.
• Ensure that the cuff is not placed on an arm in which the
arteries or veins are undergoing medical treatment, e.g.
intravascular access or therapy, or an arteriovenous (AV)
shunt.
• Do not use the cuff on people who have undergone a
mastectomy.
• Do not place the cuff over wounds as this may cause fur-
ther injury.
• You can either use the blood pressure monitor with batter-
ies or with a mains part. Please note that data transfer and
data storage is only possible when your blood pressure
monitor is supplied with power. As soon as the batter-
ies are empty or the mains part is disconnected from the
power supply, the blood pressure monitor loses the date
and time.
• To conserve the batteries, the monitor switches off auto-
matically if no buttons are pressed for one minute.
• The device is only intended for the purpose described in
these instructions for use. The manufacturer is not liable
for damage resulting from improper or careless use.

tronic components. Accuracy of readings and the instru-
ment's service life depend on careful handling.

going to be used for a longer period of time.
Advice on batteries
• Batteries can be fatal if swallowed. You should therefore
store the batteries and products where they are inaccessi-
ble to small children. If a battery has been swallowed, call
a doctor immediately.

other means, nor should they be taken apart, thrown in
the fire or short-circuited.
