4. Appearance of the Heart Arrhythmia Indicator for

early Detection

This symbol

AM indicates that certain pulse irregularities were

detected during the measurement. In this case, the result may
deviate from your normal blood pressure – repeat the measure-
ment. In most cases, this is no cause for concern. However, if the
symbol appears on a regular basis (e.g. several times a week with
measurements taken daily) we advise you to tell your doctor.
Please show your doctor the following explanation:

5. Data Memory

At the end of each measurement, this instrument automatically
stores the result.

6. Battery Indicator and Battery change

Low battery
When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol
AO will flash as soon as the instrument is switched on (partly filled
battery displayed). Although the instrument will continue to
measure reliably, you should obtain replacement batteries.

Flat battery – replacement
When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol

AO will flash as

soon as the instrument is switched on (flat battery displayed). You
cannot take any further measurements and must replace the
batteries.

Which batteries and which procedure?

Using rechargeable batteries

AQ and the diastolic AR

blood pressure and the pulse

AS is displayed and longer beep

discharge valve

6 in order to release any remaining air in

the cuff. Remove the cuff.

or notice an unpleasant pressure sensation).

Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the
Arrhythmia indicator

This instrument is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that
also analyses pulse frequency during measurement. The instru-
ment is clinically tested.
The arrhythmia symbol is displayed after the measurement, if pulse
irregularities occur during measurement. If the symbol appears
more frequently (e.g. several times per week on measurements
performed daily) we recommend the patient to seek medical advice.
The instrument does not replace a cardiac examination, but
serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.
