Storage and Care
• The blood pressure monitor is made up of precision
electronic components. Accuracy of readings and the
instrument's service life depend on careful handling.
– You should protect the device from impact, moisture,
dirt, major temperature fluctuations and direct expo-
sure to the sun's rays.
– Never drop the device.
– Do not use near strong electromagnetic fields, i.e.
keep it away from any radio systems and mobile
phones.
– Only ever use the cuffs provided with the monitor
or original replacement cuffs. Otherwise erroneous
results will be recorded.
• Do not press any buttons until the cuff is in position.

recommend removing the batteries.
