the chosen memory zone. After checking the display with
all digits lighting up, the monitor will automatically inflate.
Following the self-test, during which all display elements
briefly appear, the measurement begins. During inflation
the device already determines measured values used to
estimate the required inflation pressure. If this pressure is
insufficient, the device automatically inflates by another
40 mmHg (Real Fuzzy Logic).
• Then the pressure in the cuff is slowly released and the
pulse is measured.
• When the measurement has been completed, the remain-
ing air pressure is released very quickly. The pulse, the
systolic and the diastolic blood pressure are displayed.
• The device requires approx. 5 seconds to store the deter-
mined measured value.
• You can interrupt measurement at any time by pressing
the ON/OFF button
• To switch off and release the pressure, press the ON/OFF
button again. If you forget to switch off the device, it
switches off automatically after approx. 1 minute.
Wait at least 5 minutes before taking another measurement!

This may be an indicator for arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is a
condition where the heart rhythm is abnormal as a result of
defects in the bioelectrical system controlling the heart beat.
The symptoms (omitted or premature heart beats, slow or
excessively fast heart rate) may be caused, among other
things, by heart disease, age, physical predisposition, exces-
sive use of stimulants, stress or lack of sleep. Arrhythmia can
only be ascertained through examination by your doctor.
Repeat the measurement if the flashing icon

for 5 minutes between measurements and not talk or move
during the measurement. If the icon
please contact your doctor. Any self-diagnosis and treat-
ment based on the test results may be dangerous. It is vital
to follow your doctor's instructions.
Who classification:
The World Health Organization (WHO) and National High
Blood Pressure Education Program Coordinating Commit-
tee have developed a blood pressure standard, according
to which areas of low- and high-risk blood pressure are
identified. This standard, however, is a general guideline as
individual's blood pressure varies among different people
and different age groups... etc.
It is important that you consult with your physician regu-
larly. Your physician will tell you your normal blood pressure
range as well as the point at which you will be considered
at risk.
