• Only use the unit on people who have the specified
wrist measurement for the device.
• Please note that when inflating, the functions of the
limb in question may be impaired.
• During the blood pressure measurement, blood circu-
lation must not be stopped for an unnecessarily long
time. If the device malfunctions, remove the cuff from
the arm.
• Do not allow sustained pressure in the cuff or frequent
measurements. The resulting restriction of the blood
flow may cause injury.
• Ensure that the cuff is not placed on an arm in which
the arteries or veins are undergoing medical treat-
ment, e.g. intravascular access or therapy, or an arte-
riovenous (AV) shunt.
• Do not use the cuff on people who have undergone a
mastectomy.
• Do not place the cuff over wounds as this may cause
further injury.
• Place the cuff on your wrist only. Do not place the cuff
on other parts of the body.
• The blood pressure monitor can only be operated with
batteries.
• To conserve the batteries, the monitor switches off au-
tomatically if no buttons are pressed for two minutes.
• The device is only intended for the purpose described
in these instructions for use. The manufacturer is not
liable for damage resulting from improper or careless
use.
