3.5 Using the AC Adapter
You may also operate this monitor using the included AC adapter (output
6V DC/600 mA with DIN plug). Use only the included AC adapter to avoid
damaging the unit.
1. Ensure that the AC adapter and cable are not damaged.
2. Plug the adapter cable into the AC adapter port on the blood pressure
monitor.
3. Plug the adapter into your electrical outlet.
When the AC adapter is connected, no battery current is consumed.
Note: No power is taken from the batteries while the AC adapter is connected to the monitor. If electrical
power is interrupted, (e.g., by accidental removal of the AC adapter from the outlet) the monitor must be reset
by removing the plug from the socket and reinserting the AC adapter connection.
