Advice on use
• In order to ensure comparable values, always measure
your blood pressure at the same time of day.
• Do not take a measurement within 30 minutes after
eating, drinking, smoking or exercising.
• Before the initial blood pressure measurement, make
sure always to rest for about 5 minutes.
• Furthermore, if you want to take several measure-
ments in succession, make sure always to wait for at
least 1 minute between the individual measurements.
• Repeat the measurement if you are unsure of the
measured value.
• The measurements taken by you are for your infor-
mation only – they are not a substitute for a medical
examination!
• Discuss the measurements with your doctor, and nev-
er base any medical decisions on them (e.g. medicines
and their administration)!
• Using the blood pressure monitor outside your home
environment or whilst on the move (e.g. whilst travel-
ling in a car, ambulance or helicopter, or whilst un-
dertaking physical activity such as playing sport) can
influence the measurement accuracy and cause incor-
rect measurements.
• Do not use the blood pressure monitor on newborns or
patients with preeclampsia. We recommend consult-
ing a doctor before using the blood pressure monitor
during pregnancy.
• This device is not intended for use by people (includ-
ing children) with restricted physical, sensory or mental
skills or a lack of experience and/or a lack of knowl-
edge, unless they are supervised by a person who is
responsible for their safety or are instructed by such
a person in how to use the device. Supervise children
around the device to ensure they do not play with it.
• In the case of restricted circulation on the arm as a re-
sult of chronic or acute vascular diseases (including
vascular constriction), the accuracy of the wrist meas-
urement is limited. In this case you should avoid using
an upper arm blood pressure monitor.
