2. Be safe!
The information given in these instructions, and the blood
pressure meter itself, should not lead you to believe that you
can make your own diagnoses, treat possible health
problems by yourself, or decide what drugs you should take.
•The measurements taken can be used only for your
information - they cannot be a substitute for examination
by a doctor!
•Blood pressure depends on time of day, physical exertion
and other factors. Do not rely on individual
measurements.
Diseases of the cardio-vascular system can result in
erroneous measurements, as can very low blood pressure,
circulatory disorder, dysrhythmia, and other pre-existing
conditions (for example, diabetes mellitus).
•In such cases especially, you should not trust to
measurements you take by yourself!
•With known diseases, use of this appliance must not,
in any circumstances, be a substitute for having your
blood pressure taken by a doctor, even if the
appliance shows seemingly harmless blood pressure
levels.
