checking the display with all digits lighting up, the monitor
will automatically inflate. Following the self-test, during which
all display elements briefly appear, the measurement begins.
During inflation the device already determines measured val-
ues used to estimate the required inflation pressure. If this
pressure is insufficient, the device automatically inflates by
another.
• Then the pressure in the cuff is slowly released and the pulse
is measured.
• When the measurement has been completed, the remaining
air pressure is released very quickly. The pulse, the systolic
and the diastolic blood pressure are displayed.
• You can interrupt measurement at any time by pressing the

Cardiac arrhythmia:
This instrument can identify possible cardiac arrhythmia disor-
ders during measurement and if necessary indicates the meas-
urement with the flashing icon
This may be an indicator for arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is a condi-
tion where the heart rhythm is abnormal as a result of defects

in the bioelectrical system controlling the heart beat. The
symptoms (omitted or premature heart beats, slow or exces-
sively fast heart rate) may be caused, among other things,
by heart disease, age, physical predisposition, excessive use
of stimulants, stress or lack of sleep. Arrhythmia can only be
ascertained through examination by your doctor.

Risk indicator:
The measurements can be classified and evaluated in
accordance with the following table.
However, these standard values serve only as a general guide-
line, as the individual blood pressure varies in different people
and different age groups etc.
It is important to consult your doctor regularly for advice. Your
doctor will tell you your individual values for normal blood pres-
sure as well as the value above which your blood pressure is
classified as dangerous.
The bar chart on the display and the scale on the unit show
which category the recorded blood pressure values fall into.
If the values of systole and diastole fall into two different cate-
gories (e.g. systole in the High normal category and diastole in
the Normal category), the graphical classification on the device
always shows the higher category; for the example given this
would be High normal.
