Safety and protection

Instrument care

Accuracy test
We recommend this instrument is tested for accuracy every
2 years or after mechanical impact (e.g. being dropped). Please
contact Microlife-Service to arrange the test (see foreword).

)

Batteries must be removed and recharged when the flat
battery symbol appears. They should not remain inside the
instrument as they may become damaged (total discharge
as a result of low use of the instrument, even when
switched off).

)

Always remove the rechargeable batteries if you do not
intend to use the instrument for a week or more.

)

Batteries cannot be charged in the blood pressure monitor.
Recharge batteries in an external charger and observe the
information regarding charging, care and durability.

Error

Description Potential cause and remedy

«ERR 1» Signal too

weak

The pulse signals on the cuff are too weak.
Re-position the cuff and repeat the measure-
ment.*

«ERR 2» Error signal

During the measurement, error signals
were detected by the cuff, caused for
instance by movement or muscle tension.
Repeat the measurement, keeping your
arm still.

«ERR 3» No pressure

in the cuff

An adequate pressure cannot be gener-
ated in the cuff. A leak may have occurred.
Check that cuff and pump ball are correctly
connected and that the cuff is not fitted too
loosely. Replace the batteries if necessary.
Repeat the measurement.

«ERR 5» Abnormal

result

The measuring signals are inaccurate and
no result can therefore be displayed. Read
through the checklist for performing reliable
measurements and then repeat the
measurement.*

«HI»

Pulse or cuff
pressure too

The pressure in the cuff is too high (over
300 mmHg) OR the pulse is too high (over
200 beats per minute). Relax for 5 minutes
