teries containing harmful substances:
Pb = battery containing lead, Cd = bat-
tery containing cadmium, Hg = battery

Setting date and time
It is vital to set date and time. Only in this way is it pos-
sible to save and subsequently retrieve your measured
values with the right date and time.
Time is shown in 24 hour format.
note: If you hold down the buttons t ‚Down' or ▲ ‚Up',
you can set the values more quickly.
• Press MODE. The month starts fl ashing. Using the
buttons t ‚Down' and ▲ ‚Up', set the month 1 to 12

Setting individual warning limits (‚Doctor's function')
After confirming date and time, the warning limits for
systolic and diastolic for each individual user can be set
individually. With this adjustment possibility, medical in-
structions in the case of outpatient blood pressure moni-
toring can be ideally implemented (‚Doctor's function').
note: The factory-set values are based on WHO guide-
lines for high-normal and amount to
130 mmHg (systolic) und 85 mmHg (diastolic) (entry limit
range). See the WHO-chart shown. You must confirm
the factory setting in order to activate the ‚Doctor's
function'.
• Setting warning limits always begins with User 1.
• Unless the factory setting has been changed, the dis-
play will read ‚--'.
• You can now alter the limits for systolic pressure with
the buttons t ‚Down' and ▲ ‚Up' in 5mmHg stages.
• Confi rm the required value with the MODE button.
• You can now also change the limits for diastolic
pressure with the buttons t ‚Down' and ▲ ‚Up' in
5mmHg stages.
• With the MODE button, save the settings and switch to
the next user memory, you can also save the settings
with START/STOP but then you go into measurement
mode. If you do not press any button, the instrument
automatically switches off after one minute.
note:
• From a medical point of view, the distance between
systolic and diastolic should be greater than 30mmHg.
A systolic limit value below 100 mmHg and a diastolic
limit value below 60 mmHg is not recommended.
