Instructions for storage and maintenance
• The blood pressure monitor is made from precision and
electronic components. The accuracy of the measurements
and service life of the device depend on its careful handling:
– Protect the device from impacts, humidity, dirt, marked
temperature fluctuations and direct sunlight.
– Do not drop the device.
– Do not use the device in the vicinity of strong electro-
magnetic fields and keep it away from radio systems or
mobile telephones.
– Only use the cuff included with the delivery or original
replacement parts. Otherwise incorrect measurements
will be recorded.
• Do not press the buttons before the cuff is placed on the
arm.
• We recommend that the batteries be removed if the device
will not be used for a prolonged period of time.
Notes on batteries
• Swallowing batteries can be extremely dangerous. Keep
the batteries and products out of the reach of small chil-
dren. If a battery is swallowed, seek medical attention
immediately.
• Batteries must not be recharged, taken apart, thrown into
an open fire or short circuited.
• If the batteries are empty or you do not intend to use the
device for longer periods, remove the batteries from the
device. This prevents damage which could occur when
the batteries expire. Always replace all batteries at the
same time.
• Do not use different types of batteries, different brands
or batteries with different capacities. For preference, use
alkaline batteries.
Instructions for repairs and disposal
• Batteries do not belong in household waste. Please dis-
pose of empty batteries at the collection points intended
for this purpose.
• Do not open the device. Failure to comply will invalidate
the warranty.
• Do not repair or adjust the device yourself. Proper opera-
tion can no longer be guaranteed in this case.
• Repairs must only be carried out by Customer Services or
authorised suppliers.
Before making a claim, please check the batteries first
and replace them if necessary.
• Please dispose of the device in accordance with
EC Directive – WEEE (Waste Electrical and Elec-
tronic Equipment). If you have any questions,
please contact the local authorities responsible for waste
disposal.
