• The device indicates the pulse rate (the number of times the heart
beats in a minute).
• Permanently high blood pressure values can damage your
health and must be treated by your doctor!
• Always discuss your values with your doctor and tell him/her if you
have noticed anything unusual or feel unsure. Never rely on
single blood pressure readings.
• There are several causes of excessively high blood pressure
values. Your doctor will explain them in more detail and offer
treatment where appropriate. Besides medication, weight loss
and exercise can also lower your blood pressure.
• Under no circumstances should you alter the dosages of
drugs or initiate a treatment without consulting your doctor.
• Depending on physical exertion and condition, blood pressure is
subject to wide fluctuations as the day progresses. You should
therefore take your measurements in the same quiet condi-
tions and when you feel relaxed! Take at least two readings
every time (in the morning and in the evening) and average the
measurements.
• It is quite normal for two measurements taken in quick succession
to produce significantly different results.

• Deviations between measurements taken by your doctor or in the
pharmacy and those taken at home are quite normal, as these
situations are completely different.
• Several measurements provide much more reliable information
about your blood pressure than just one single measurement.
• Leave a small break of at least 15 seconds between two
measurements.
• If you suffer from an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia, see
«Section 4.»), measurements taken with this device should be
evaluated with your doctor.
• The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency
of heart pacemakers!
• If you are pregnant, you should monitor your blood pressure
regularly as it can change drastically during this time.
A number of factors can affect the accuracy of measure-
ments taken on the wrist. In some cases, the result may
differ from the measurement taken on the upper arm. We
therefore advise you to compare these values with those
produced by the upper arm measurement and discuss them
with your doctor.
