Cardiac arrhythmia:
This device can identify potential disruptions of the heart rhythm
when measuring and if necessary, indicates this after the meas-
urement with the symbol
This can be an indicator for arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is a condition
in which the heart rhythm is abnormal because of flaws in the
bioelectrical system that regulates the heartbeat. The symptoms
(skipped or premature heart beats, pulse being slow or too fast)
can be caused by factors such as heart disease, age, physical
make-up, excess stimulants, stress or lack of sleep. Arrhythmia
can only be determined through an examination by your doctor.
If the symbol is shown on the display after the measurement
has been taken, repeat the measurement. Please ensure that you
rest for 5 minutes beforehand and do not speak or move during
the measurement. If the symbol

Self-diagnosis and treatment based on the measurements can
be dangerous. Always follow your GP's instructions.

Risk indicator:
The measurements can be classified and evaluated in accordance
with the following table.
However, these standard values serve only as a general guideline,
®
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 pres-
sure 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 different catego-
ries (e.g. systole in the 'High normal' category and diastole in
the 'Normal' category), the graphical classification on the device
always shows the higher category; for the example given this
would be 'High normal'.
