Malfunction
The display remains empty when the instrument is
switched on although the batteries are in place.
The pressure does not rise although the pump
is running.
The device frequently fails to measure the
blood pressure values, or the values measured
are too low (too high).
Every measurement results in different values
although the device functions normally and
the values displayed.
The blood pressure values measured differ from
those measured by the doctor.
After the instrument has inflated the cuff the
pressure falls very slowly or not at all (no
reasonable measurement possible).

Further information
The level of blood-pressure is subject to fluctuations even with healthy people. Important thereby is, that
comparable measurements always require the same conditions (Quiet conditions)!
If, in spite of observing all these factors, the fluctuations are larger than 15 mmHg, and/or you hear
irregular pulse tones on several occasions, please consult your doctor.
You must consult your specialist dealer or chemist if there are technical problems with the blood-pressure
instrument. Never attempt to repair the instrument yourself!
Any unauthorised opening of the instrument invalidates all guarantee claims!
Remedy
1. Check whether the batteries are installed
with the correct polarity and correct if necessary.
2. If the display is unusual, remove the batteries
and then exchange them for new.
• Check the connection of the cuff tube and
connect properly if necessary.
1. Fit the cuff correctly on the arm.
2. Before starting the measurement make sure that
the cuff is not fitted too tightly and that there is
no rolled-up sleeve exerting pressure on the arm
above the measuring position. Take off articles
of clothing if necessary.
3. Measure the blood pressure again in complete
peace and quiet.
• Please read the following information and
the points listed under «Common sources
of error». Repeat the measurement.
• Record the daily development of the values
and consult your doctor about them.
• Missing plastic ring (distance piece) at
tube connection. This may only be removed for
reasonable measurement possible).
Push this ring over the tube connector so that it
slots in properly and repeat the measurement.
