Saving, Displaying And Deleting Measurements - Beurer BC 40 Manual De Instrucciones

However, these standard values serve only as a general gui-
deline, 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 pressure as well as the value above which your blood
pressure is classified as dangerous.
The classification 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 dif-
ferent categories (e.g. systole in the ‚High normal' category
and diastole in the ‚Normal' category), the graphical classi-
fication on the device always shows the higher category; for
the example given this would be ‚High normal'.
