Patient instructions
Advise the patient on how to cope with mis-operation and contingencies.
Cautions during automatic measurement
❏ Patient should relax and be quiet, when the recorder starts inflating the cuff.
❏ Minimize noise and movement during the measurements.
❏ The recorder displays the patient's blood pressure within one minute after the
measurement.
❏ There is the possibility of re-measuring the blood pressure after the last
measurement. This occurs when the recorder did not acquire usable data and
the frequency of the interval is above 10 minutes. The patient should relax and
not move during the measurement.
❏ Discontinue use of recorder if the patient feels pain in his arm.
Stopping or canceling an automatic measurement
❏ When the patient needs to stop a measurement, press the
START STOP
key.
The recorder beeps, releases the air in the cuff and an error is displayed. The
recorder will inflate the cuff for the next time period automatically.
❏ When the
AUTO ON/OFF
key is pressed and held for approx. 3 seconds, the
recorder exits the automatic measurement mode and the "A" disappears.
Conversly, by pressing the key again, the "A" will reappear.
Manual measurement
❏ For the patient to start a measurement at once, press the
START STOP
key.
❏ For the patient to stop this measurement, press the
START STOP
key.
Attention while attaching the cuff and recorder
❏ Do not drop or shake the recorder.
❏ The recorder and cuff are not water resistant. Prevent excessive moisture
wetting the recorder and cuff.
❏ Do not place anything on the recorder.
❏ Prevent the air hose from disconnecting during sleep. Affix the air hose to the
patient's body only as shown on page 24.
Replacing the batteries
❏ Replace with new batteries quickly, when "B" is displayed.
