Manual inflation
In case of high systolic blood pressure (e.g. above 135 mmHg),
it can be an advantage to set the pressure individually. Press the ON/
OFF button after the monitor has been pumped up to a level of
approx. 30 mmHg (shown on the display). Keep the button pressed
until the pressure is about 40 mmHg above the expected systolic
value – then release the button.
How do I evaluate my blood pressure?
The triangle on the left-hand edge of the display AO points at the
range within which the measured blood pressure value lies. The
value is either within the optimum (white), elevated (hatched gray)
or high (black) range. The classification corresponds to the
following ranges defined by international guidelines (ESH, ESC,
JSH). Data in mmHg.
Range Systolic Diastolic Recommendation
≥135
1. blood pressure
too high
2. blood pressure 130 - 134 80 - 84
elevated
3. blood pressure <130
normal
The higher value is the one that determines the evaluation.
Example: a blood pressure value of 140/80 mmHg or a value of
130/90 mmHg indicates «blood pressure too high».
Appearance of the Irregular Heartbeat (IHB) Symbol
This symbol AN indicates that an irregular heartbeat was detected.
In this case, the measured blood pressure may deviate from your
actual blood pressure values. It is recommended to repeat the
measurement.
Information for the doctor in case of repeated appearance of
the IHB symbol:
This device is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also
measures the pulse during blood pressure measurement and
indicates when the heart rate is irregular.

4. Data Memory

This device always stores the last result at the end of the measure-
ment. To recall the reading, press and hold the ON/OFF button 1
while the device is switched off. Release the button as soon as all
display elements are shown. The stored result will then be shown,
indicated with the letter «M» AP.

5. Battery Indicator and Battery change

Low battery
When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol AL
will flash as soon as the device is switched on (partly filled battery
displayed). Although the device will continue to measure reliably, you
should obtain replacement batteries.
Flat battery – replacement
When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol AL will flash as soon
as the device is switched on (flat battery displayed). You cannot
take any further measurements and must replace the batteries.
1. Open the battery compartment 5 at the back of the device.
2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the
symbols in the compartment.
Which batteries and which procedure?

Use 4 new, long-life 1.5 V, size AA alkaline batteries.

Do not use batteries beyond their date of expiry.

Remove batteries if the device is not going to be used for a
prolonged period.
Using rechargeable batteries
You can also operate this device using rechargeable batteries.

Only use «NiMH» type reusable batteries.

Batteries must be removed and recharged when the flat
battery symbol appears. They should not remain inside the
device as they may become damaged (total discharge as a
result of low use of the device, even when switched off).

Always remove the rechargeable batteries if you do not
intend to use the device for a week or more.

Batteries cannot be charged in the blood pressure monitor.
Recharge batteries in an external charger and observe the
information regarding charging, care and durability.

6. Using a Mains Adapter

You can operate this device using the Microlife mains adapter
(DC 6V, 600 mA).

Only use the Microlife mains adapter available as an original
accessory appropriate for your supply voltage.

Ensure that neither the mains adapter nor the cable are
damaged.
1. Plug the adapter cable into the mains adapter socket 4 in the
blood pressure monitor.
2. Plug the adapter plug into the wall socket.
