LED risk indicator
The World Health Organization (WHO) has defined the internationally recognised classification for the evalua-
tion of measured blood pressure values listed in the table below:
Measured blood pressure value range
Systole (in mmHg)
≥ 180
160 – 179
140 – 159
130 – 139
120 – 129
< 120
Source: WHO, 1999 (World Health Organization)
The LED risk indicator (coloured LED on the device to the left of the display) shows which category the re-
corded blood pressure falls into. If the measured values are in two different classifications (e.g. systole in the
high normal category and diastole in the normal category), the risk indicator then always shows you the higher
category – "high normal" in the example described.
Please be aware that these standard values can only serve as a general guideline, as the individual blood
pressure varies in different people and different age groups, etc.
Furthermore, it must be noted that measurements taken yourself while at home are generally lower than those
that are taken by the doctor. For this reason, it is important that you regularly consult your doctor for advice.
Only they are able to give you your personal target values for controlled blood pressure – in particular if you
receive medicinal therapy.
Displaying and deleting measurements
The results of every successful measurement are stored together with the date and time. If there are
more than 120 measurements, the oldest measurements are lost.
• First select the desired user memory that you want to view the data for as described in the chapter on
selecting a user.
• Then press the memory button M on the switched-off device.
A A flashes on the display.
The average value of all saved measured values in this user memory is displayed.
• Press the memory button M.
AM flashes on the display. AM
The average value of the morning measurements for the last 7 days is displayed
(morning: 5.00 a.m. – 9.00 a.m.).
• Press the memory button M.
Diastole (in mmHg)
≥ 110
100 – 109
90 – 99
85 – 89
80 – 84
< 80
