MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

•

Do not store the apparatus in a wet or humid place. The apparatus can be stored within the temperature
range of -10 and +55 °C.

•

If you do not use the blood pressure monitor for a longer period of time, please remove the batteries from the
battery holder.

•

Use a dampened, fluff-free cloth for cleaning the cover and the arm cuff of the appliance, then carefully wipe
them with a dry cloth.

•

Let the appliance dry completely before putting it into use or storage.

•

In order to have reliable and precise measurements, have the appliance checked by your doctor each year.

When cleaning the appliance never immerse the appliance or the arm cuff in water and do not
spray them with water.

Never disassemble the appliance.

When cleaning the appliance, never use solvent (acetone, benzole, petrol, alcohol, etc.) as these
may solve the casing material, or the internal parts of the appliance if they get into. Do not use
cleaning agents with coarse or grinding effect.

Troubleshooting

Problem

Possible reason

Solution

Unusual measured value

The cuff is fixed too tightly or
inappropriately

Fix the cuff according to chapter
“Fixture of the Cuff of the Blood
Pressure Apparatus” and perform
the measurement

You were in motion or the
apparatus was moved during the
measurement

During the measurement do not
move your hand, your body and
the apparatus and do not speak

“Err” error signal can be seen on
the display

The cuff could not been
pumped up

Check the connection of the cuff
with the apparatus

Incorrect operation

Repeat the measurement
according to the instruction
manual

The pressure value
is over 300 Hg mm

Repeat the measurement
according to the instruction
manual

1. Press the “START/STOP” button. First, for a short time all symbols will appear on the display. This way

the correct operation of the display can be checked. After the self-test the apparatus releases the residual
pressure from the cuff - then the pumping up of the cuff begins.

2. The apparatus pumps up the cuff automatically to a magnitude of 190 Hg mm, then it decreases the pressure

gradually. In case of a higher blood pressure value the apparatus automatically pumps the cuff further twice
or three times for the sake of a successful measurement. During the measurement the symbol of pulse
marked with a heart blinks following the rhythm of the pulse.

3. At the end of the measurement a sound signal can be heard and the blood pressure and the pulse values

appear on the display. The measured values are automatically stored within the memory of the apparatus, as
well.

4. The appliance can be switched off after the measurement by pressing the “START/STOP” button, or it will

automatically switch off after 3 minutes.

The measurement can be interrupted with the pressing of the START/STOP button at any time. Then the
apparatus releases the pressure of the cuff immediately.

Remarks: Please wait 5-10 minutes before making another measurement. The blood vessels need this time to
regain their original condition after the measurement. An even longer waiting time may be necessary in the case
of certain persons taking psychological factors into account.

Memory functions:

After the measurements the apparatus stores the blood pressure and pulse data automatically within its memory.
The memory of the apparatus is suitable for storing 60-60 of the latest measurement data per person. When the
memory is full with the first 60 measurement data, the oldest data are deleted during the next measurements.
The apparatus has an averaging function, which makes the average of the result of the last 3 measurements.

1. The memory function of the apparatus can be activated after the measurement, or with the apparatus

switched off. With pressing the “MEM” button once after the measurement, the results of the earlier
measurements can be displayed.

2. With pressing the “MEM” button again the data measured before can be displayed in a reverse chronological

order. You can see the symbol NO and the number of the stored value.

After switching off if you press the button “MEM”, the average of the last 3 measurements appears first.

To delete the data stored within the memory, first switch on the turned-off apparatus with pressing the “MEM”
button once, then press and hold the “START/STOP” button until horizontal lines appear on the screen in the place
of the numbers.
