Cardiac arrhythmia:
This device can identify potential disruptions of the heart
rhythm when measuring and if necessary, indicates this
after the measurement with the symbol
indicator for arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is an illness in which the
heart rhythm is abnormal because of flaws in the bioelectri-
cal system that regulates the heartbeat. The symptoms
(skipped or premature heart beats, pulse being slow or too
fast) can be caused by factors such as heart disease, age,
physical make-up, excess stimulants, stress or lack of sleep.
Arrhythmia can only be determined through an examination
by your doctor. If the symbol
after the measurement has been taken, repeat the measure-
ment. Please ensure that you rest for 5 minutes beforehand
