4 Operation
2. Next, the sleeve automatically inflates until the pressure required for a measure-
ment has been reached. Alternatively, you can create this pressure manually by
pressing and holding the START button after the device has automatically reached
a pressure of at least 300 mmHg. When you think that the device has reached the
ideal starting pressure for a measurement, release the START button. The increa-
sing pressure is displayed numerically.
3. The measuring process begins automatically when inflation is complete by releasing
the pressure built up in the cuff. The display shows the current pressure in the cuff.
4. Initially, deflation occurs at a constant speed. The pulse symbol
display. As soon as the pulse can be determined, deflation is synchronised with the
beating of the heart until the measurement ends. The device beeps for each heart-
beat during this procedure, if you did not switch off the beep function beforehand.
At the same time, the pulse symbol
5. The first measurement ends when the pressure has been completely discharged
from the sleeve during a 15 second countdown. The countdown symbol
during this process. Beeps sound during the last 5 seconds.
6. Instead of " 1 ", the display now shows " 2 " for the second measurement. The
second measurement proceeds in the same way as the first (see points 2 - 5).
7. Instead of " 2 ", the display now shows " 3 " for the third measurement. The third
measurement proceeds in the same way as the first (see points 2 - 4).
8. Once the 3MAM measurement has been taken, the sleeve suddenly deflates and a
longer beep sounds.
9. The measured values of systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse rate are
shown on the display, together with the WHO blood pressure bar display. At the
same time, a longer beep sounds.
10. If the unit detects an arrhythmia during the measuring process, the arrhythmia
symbol will flash eight times while the reading is displayed. You may also hear
8 short beeps; these warn the user of an irregular heartbeat.
11. If you do not press any buttons for approx. 1 minute, the device automatically
switches to standby mode.
NOTE
When the device is used, the errors Err 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 can occur in the
integrated circuit. Err 6 can only occur in 3MAM mode.
In 3MAM mode, errors Err 1, 2, 3, 5 do not cause the measurement to
be cancelled, unless they occur twice in succession. The error display is
always accompanied by 3 short beeps.
