₋ Do not take any therapeutic measures on the basis of a self-measurement. Never alter the dose of a medicine prescribed
by a doctor. Consult your doctor if you have any question about your blood pressure.
₋ When the device was used to measure patients who have common arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature
beats or atrial fibrillation, the best result may occur with deviation. Please consult your physician about the result.
₋ When using this device, please pay attention to the following situation which may interrupt blood flow and influence
blood circulation of the patient, thus cause harmful injury to the patient: connection tubing kinking too frequent and
consecutive multiple measurements; the application of the cuff and its pressurization on any wrist where intravascular
access or therapy, or an arterio-venous (A-V) shunt, is present; inflating the cuff on the side of a mastectomy.
₋ Warning: Do not apply the cuff over a wound; otherwise it can cause further injury.
₋ Do not inflate the cuff on the same limb which other monitoring ME equipment is applied around simultaneously,
because this could cause temporary loss of function of those simultaneously-used monitoring ME equipment.
₋ On the rare occasion of a fault causing the cuff to remain fully inflated during measurement, open the cuff immediately.
Prolonged high pressure (cuff pressure 300mmHg or constant pressure ģ 15mmHg for more than 3 minutes) applied to
the wrist may lead to an ecchymosis.
₋ Please check that operation of the device does not result in prolonged impairment of patient blood circulation.
₋ When measurement, please avoid compression or restriction of the connection tubing.
₋ The device cannot be used with HF surgical equipment at the same time.
₋ This device is contraindicated for any female who may be suspected of, or is pregnant. Besides providing inaccurate
readings, the effects of this device on the fetus are unknown.
₋ Too frequent and consecutive measurements could cause disturbances in blood circulation and injuries.
₋ This unit is not suitable for continuous monitoring during medical emergencies or operations. Otherwise, the patient's
wrist and fingers will become anaesthetic, swollen and even purple due to a lack of blood.
₋ When not in use, store the device in a dry room and protect it against extreme moisture, heat, lint, dust and direct
sunlight. Never place any heavy objects on the storage case.
₋ The equipment is not AP/APG equipment and not suitable for use in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture
with air of with oxygen or nitrous oxide.
₋ Warning: No servicing/maintenance while the ME equipment is in use.
₋ To avoid measurement errors, please avoid the condition of strong electromagnetic field radiated interference signal or
electrical fast transient/burst signal.
₋ The blood pressure monitor and the cuff are suitable for use within the patient environment. If you are allergic to
polyester, nylon or plastic, please don't use this device.
₋ If you experience discomfort during a measurement, such as pain in the wrist or other complaints, press the START/STOP
button to release the air immediately from the cuff. Loosen the cuff and remove it from your wrist.
₋ If the cuff pressure reaches 40 kPa (300 mmHg), the unit will automatically deflate. Should the cuff not deflate when
pressures reaches 40 kPa (300 mmHg), detach the cuff from the wrist and press the START/STOP button to stop inflation.
₋ Before use, make sure the device functions safely and is in proper working condition. Check the device, do not use the
device if it is damaged in any way. The continuous use of a damaged unit may cause injury, improper results, or serious
danger.
₋ Do not wash the cuff in a washing machine or dishwasher!
₋ The service life of the cuff may vary by the frequency of washing, skin condition, and storage state. The typical service
life is 10000 times.
₋ The operator shall not touch output of batteries and the patient simultaneously.
₋ Cleaning :Dust environment may affect the performance of the unit. Please use the soft cloth to clean the whole unit
before and after use. Don't use any abrasive or volatile cleaners.
₋ Keep the unit out of reach of infants, young children or pets to avoid inhalation or swallowing of small parts. It is
dangerous or even fatal.
₋ Be careful to strangulation due to cables and hoses, particularly due to excessive length.
₋ At least 30 min required for ME equipment to warm from the minimum storage temperature between uses until it is
ready for intended use. At least 30 min required for ME equipment to cool from the maximum storage temperature
between uses until it is ready for intended use.
₋ Wireless communications equipment such as wireless home network devices, mobile phones, cordless telephones and
their base stations, walkie-talkies can affect this equipment and should be kept at least a distance d away from the
equipment. The distance d is caculated by the MANUFACTURER from the 80 MHz to 5.8 GHz column of Table 4 and Table
9 of IEC 60601-1-2:2014, as appropriate.
₋ There is no luer lock connectors are used in the construction of tubing, there is a possibility that they might be
inadvertently connected to intravascular fluid systems, allowing air to be pumped into a blood vessel.
