Further information
Measurements should not occur soon after each other, since otherwise, the results will be falsified. Wait
therefore for several minutes in a relaxed position, sitting or lying, before you repeat a measurement.
5.6. Discontinuing a measurement
If it is necessary to interrupt a blood pressure measurement for any reason
(e.g the patient feels unwell), the
device then immediately lowers the cuff pressure automatically.
5.7. Delete memory
When the memory has stored 30 results, the display shows «Full M» after a
measurement. From this point onwards, a new measured value is stored by
overwriting the oldest value.
Clear all values
If you are sure that you want to permanently remove all stored values, hold
down the M-button (the instrument must have been switched off beforehand)
until «CL» appears and then release the button. To permanently clear the
memory, press the M-button while «CL» is flashing. Individual values cannot
be cleared.

Error messages/malfunctions
If an error occurs during a measurement, the measurement is discontinued
and a corresponding error code is displayed.
(Example Error no. 1)
Error No.
Possible cause(s)
ERR 1
The systolic pressure was determined but after wards the cuff pressure fell below 20 mmHg.
This situation can occur, for example, if the tube becomes unplugged after the systolic
blood pressure has been measured. Further possible cause: No pulse has been detected.
ERR 2
Unnatural pressure impulses influence the measurement result. Reason: The arm was
moved during the measurement (Artefact).
ERR 3
Inflation of the cuff takes too long. The cuff is not correctly seated or the hose connection is
not sealed.
ERR 5
The measured readings indicated an unacceptable difference between systolic and diastolic
pressures. Take another reading following directions carefully. Contact you doctor if you
continue to get unusual readings.
HI
The pressure in the cuff is too high (over 300 mmHg) OR the pulse is too high (over 200 beats
per minute). Relax for 5 minutes and repeat the measurement.*
LO
The pulse is too low (less than 40 beats per minute). Repeat the measurement.*
* Please consult your doctor, if this or any other problem occurs repeatedly.
Other possible malfunctions and their eliminations
If problems occur when using the device, the following points should be checked and if necessary, the
corresponding measures are to be taken:
