Dear Customer

Important: Blood pressure measurement is not

suitable in cases of serious arteriosclerosis
(hardening of the arteries).

• The pulse display is not suitable for monitoring

the frequency of cardiac pacemakers.

• If you suffer from disorders of heart rhythm,

known as arrythmia, you should only use this
blood pressure monitor in consultation with your
doctor. In certain cases the oscillometric measu-
ring method can produce incorrect readings.

• Pregnant women should only measure their own

blood pressure in consultation with their doctor,
since the readings may be changed by pregnancy.

• You should avoid eating, drinking (alcohol),

smoking and sports before measuring your blood
pressure, as this could affect your blood pressure
level.

• Don’t move, don’t speak while measurement is

being taken.

• Make yourself comfortable in a chair and relax

before each reading.

• We recommend that you monitor your blood

pressure twice a day, in the morning after getting
up and in the evening after work, or as advised by
your doctor.

Please remember: Self-measurement is not the

same as medical treatment!
You should never change the dose of medicines
prescribed by your doctor.
