1. Introduction

1.1. Features

The blood-pressure monitor (with integrated time/date display) is a fully automatic, digital blood-

pressure measuring device for use on the wrist, which enables very fast and reliable measure-

ment of the systolic and diastolic blood-pressure as well as the pulse frequency by way of the

oscillometric method of measuring.

The device offers a very high and clinical tested measurement accuracy and has been designed

to provide a maximum of user-friendliness.

Before using, please read through this instruction manual carefully and then keep it in a safe

place. For further questions on the subject of blood-pressure and its measurement, please

contact your doctor.

Attention!

1.2. Important information about self-measurement

• Do not forget: self-measurement means control, not diagnosis or treatment. Unusual values

must always be discussed with your doctor. Under no circumstances should you alter the

dosages of any drugs prescribed by your doctor.

• The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart pacemakers!

• In cases of cardiac irregularity (Arrhythmia), measurements made with this instrument

should only be evaluated after consultation with the doctor.

Electromagnetic interference:

The device contains sensitive electronic components (Microcomputer). Therefore, avoid strong

electrical or electromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity of the device (e.g. mobile telephones,

microwave cookers). These can lead to temporary impairment of the measuring accuracy.

2. Important information on the subject of blood-pressure and its measurement

2.1. How does high/low blood-pressure arise?

The level of blood-pressure is determined in a part of the brain, the so-called circulatory centre, and

adapted to the respective situation by way of feedback via the nervous system. To adjust the blood-

pressure, the strength and frequency of the heart (Pulse), as well as the width of circulatory blood

vessels is altered. The latter is effected by way of fine muscles in the blood-vessel walls.

The level of arterial blood-pressure changes periodically during the heart activity: During the

«blood ejection» (Systole) the value is maximal (systolic blood-pressure value), at the end of the

heart’s «rest period» (Diastole) minimal (diastolic blood-pressure value). The blood-pressure

values must lie within certain normal ranges in order to prevent particular diseases.

2.2 Which values are normal?

Blood pressure is too high if at rest, the diastolic pressure is above 90 mmHg and/or the systolic

blood-pressure is over 140 mmHg. In this case, please consult your doctor immediately. Long-

term values at this level endanger your health due to the associated advancing damage to the

blood vessels in your body.

With blood-pressure values that are too low, i.e. systolic values under 100 mmHg and/or diastolic

values under 60 mmHg, likewise, please consult your doctor.

Even with normal blood-pressure values, a regular self-check with your blood-pressure monitor is re-

commended. In this way you can detect possible changes in your values early and react appropriately.

If you are undergoing medical treatment to control your blood pressure, please keep a record of

the level of your blood pressure by carrying out regular self-measurements at specific times of

the day. Show these values to your doctor. Never use the results of your measurements to

alter independently the drug doses prescribed by your doctor.

Table for classifying blood-pressure values (units mmHg) according to World Health Organization:

☞Further information

• If your values are mostly standard under resting conditions but exceptionally high under con-

ditions of physical or psychological stress, it is possible that you are suffering from so-called

«labile hypertension». Please consult your doctor if you suspect that this might be the case.

• Correctly measured diastolic blood-pressure values above 120 mmHg require immediate

medical treatment.

Range Systolic

Blood-pressure

Diastolic

Blood-pressure

Measures

Hypotension lower than 100 lower than 60 Consult your doctor

Normal range between 100 and 140 between 60 and 90 Self-check

Mild hypertension between 140 and 160 between 90 and 100 Consult your doctor

Moderate hypertension between 160 and 180 between 100 and 110 Consult your doctor

Severe hypertension higher than 180 higher than 110 Consult your doctor

immediately

2.3. What can be done, if regular increased/low values are obtained?

a) Please consult your doctor.

b) Increased blood-pressure values (various forms of hypertension) are associated long- and

medium term with considerable risks to health. This concerns the arterial blood vessels of

your body, which are endangered due to constriction caused by deposits in the vessel walls

(Arteriosclerosis). A deficient supply of blood to important organs (heart, brain, muscles) can

be the result. Furthermore, with long-term continuously increased blood-pressure values, the

heart will become structurally damaged.

c) There are many different causes of the appearance of high blood pressure. We differentiate

between the common primary (essential) hypertension, and secondary hypertension. The

latter group can be ascribed to specific organic malfunctions. Please consult your doctor for

information about the possible origins of your own increased blood pressure values.

d) There are measures which you can take, not only for reducing a medically established high

blood pressure, but also for prevention. These measures are part of your general way of life:

A) Eating habits

• Strive for a normal weight corresponding to your age. Reduce overweight!

• Avoid excessive consumption of common salt.

• Avoid fatty foods.

B) Previous illnesses

Follow consistently any medical instructions for treating previous illness such as:

• Diabetes (Diabetes mellitus)

• Fat metabolism disorder

• Gout

C) Habits

• Give up smoking completely

• Drink only moderate amounts of alcohol

• Restrict your caffeine consumption (Coffee)

D) Physical constitution:

• After a preliminary medical examination, do regular sport.

• Choose sports which require stamina and avoid those which require strength.

• Avoid reaching the limit of your performance.

• With previous illnesses and/or an age of over 40 years, please consult your doctor before

beginning your sporting activities. He will advise you regarding the type and extent of types

of sport that are possible for you.

3. The various components of the blood-pressure monitor

The illustration shows the blood-pressure monitor, consisting of:

Wrist cuff Type WC1 13.5–19.5 cm, for wrist circumference of 13.5 to 19.5 cm

4. Putting the blood-pressure monitor into operation

4.1. Inserting the batteries

After you have unpacked your device, first insert the batteries. The battery compartment is

located on the left lateral side of the device (see illustration).

a) Remove cover as illustrated

b) Insert the batteries (2 x size AAA 1.5V), thereby observing the indicated polarity.

c) If the battery warning appears in the display, the batteries are empty and must be replaced

by new ones.

Attention!

• After the battery warning appears, the device is blocked until the batteries have been replaced.

• Please use «AAA» Long-Life or Alkaline 1.5V Batteries. The use of 1.2V Accumulators is not

recommended.

Functional check: Hold on the O/I button down to test all the display elements. When functioning

correctly all segments must appear.

4.2. Reading the set date

Please press the Time button.

4.3. Setting the time and date

1) After the new batteries are fitted, the year number flashes in the display. You can set the

year by pressing the M-button. To confirm and then set the month, press the Time button.

2) You can now set the month using the M-button. Press the time button to confirm and then

set the day.

3) Please follow the instructions above to set the day, hour and minutes.

4) Once you have set the minutes and pressed the Time button, the date and time are set and

the time is displayed.

5) If you want to change the date and time, press and hold the Time button down for approx.

3 seconds until the year number starts to flash. Now you can enter the new values as

described above.

5. Carrying out a measurement

5.1. Before the measurement

• Avoid eating, smoking as well as all forms of exertion directly before the measurement. All

these factors influence the measurement result. Try and find time to relax by sitting in an

armchair in a quite atmosphere for about 5 minutes before the measurement.

• Measure always on the same wrist (normally left).

• Attempt to carry out the measurements regularly at the same time of day, since the blood-

pressure changes during the course of the day.

5.2. Common sources of error

Note: Comparable blood-pressure measurements always require the same conditions!

These are normally always quiet conditions.

• All efforts by the patient to support the arm can increase the blood pressure. Make sure you

are in a comfortable, relaxed position and do not activate any of the muscles in the

measurement arm during the measurement. Use a cushion for support if necessary.

• If the wrist artery lies considerably lower (higher) than the heart, an erroneously higher (lower)

blood-pressure will be measured! (Each 15 cm difference in height results in a measurement

error of 10 mmHg!)

• A loose cuff causes false measurement values.

5.3. Fitting the cuff

a) Remove all eventual objects and jewellery (e.g. wrist-

watch) from the wrist in question. Draw the cuff over

the wrist.

b) The distance between the cuff and the hand should be

approx. 10 mm.

c) Secure the cuff with the Velcro fastener, so that it lies

comfortably and not too tight, whereby no space

should remain between the cuff and the wrist.

d) Lay the arm on a table, with the palm upwards. Support

the arm a little with a rest (cushion), so that the cuff

rests at about the same height as the heart. Take care,

that the cuff lies free.

5.4. Measuring procedure

After the cuff has been appropriately positioned and the

setting of the pressure pre-selection has been undertaken,

the measurement can begin:

a) Press O/I button to put the device into operation

b) Press the START button – the pump begins to inflate the

cuff. In the display, the increasing cuff-pressure is

continually displayed.

c) After reaching the inflation pressure, the pump stops and the pressure

slowly falls away. The cuff-pressure (large characters) is displayed

during the measurement. When the device has detected the pulse, the

heart symbol in the display begins to blink and a peep tone is audible

for every pulse beat.
