4. Appearance of the Heart Arrhythmia Indicator for 

early Detection 

This symbol 

AM

 indicates that certain pulse irregularities were 

detected during the measurement. In this case, the result may 
deviate from your normal blood pressure – repeat the measure-
ment. In most cases, this is no cause for concern. However, if the 
symbol appears on a regular basis (e.g. several times a week with 
measurements taken daily) we advise you to tell your doctor. 
Please show your doctor the following explanation:

5. Data Memory

At the end of each measurement, this instrument automatically 
stores the result.

Viewing the stored values

Press the M-button 

AR

 briefly, when the instrument is switched off. 

The display first shows the last stored result. 
Pressing the M-button again displays the previous value. Pressing 
the M-button repeatedly enables you to move from one stored 
value to another.

Memory full



When the memory has stored 30 results, the memory is full. 
From this point onwards, a new measured value is stored 
by 

overwriting the oldest value

.

Clearing all values



All memory data are cleared when batteries are taken out 
of the instrument.

6. Replacing the Slot-in Card

You can replace the slot-in card 

3

 by pulling it out to the side, as 

shown in 

Fig. IV

 and replacing the paper insert.

It may be helpful to have your doctor note down the medication 
dosage or an emergency telephone number on the card. Extra 
cards are supplied with the instrument for this purpose.

7. Battery Indicator and Battery change

Low battery

When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol 

AO

 will flash as soon as the instrument is switched on (partly filled 

battery displayed). Although the instrument will continue to 
measure reliably, you should obtain replacement batteries. 

Flat battery – replacement

When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol 

AO

 will flash as soon 

as the instrument is switched on (flat battery displayed). You cannot 
take any further measurements and must replace the batteries.
1. Open the battery compartment 

7

 at the back of the instrument 

by pushing inwards at the two arrows and pulling out the battery 
compartment cover.

2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the 

symbols in the compartment.

Which batteries and which procedure?



Use 4 new, long-life 1.5V, size AA batteries.



Do not use batteries beyond their date of expiry.



Remove batteries if the instrument is not going to be used 
for a prolonged period.

Using rechargeable batteries

You can also operate this instrument using rechargeable batteries.



Only use «NiMH» type reusable batteries.



Batteries must be removed and recharged when the flat 
battery symbol appears. They should not remain inside the 
instrument as they may become damaged (total discharge as 
a result of low use of the instrument, even when switched off).



Always remove the rechargeable batteries if you do not 
intend to use the instrument for a week or more.



Batteries cannot be charged in the blood pressure monitor. 
Recharge batteries in an external charger and observe the 
information regarding charging, care and durability.

Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the 
Arrhythmia indicator

This instrument is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that 
also analyses pulse frequency during measurement. The instru-
ment is clinically tested.
The arrhythmia symbol is displayed after the measurement, if 
pulse irregularities occur during measurement. If the symbol 
appears more frequently (e.g. several times per week on 
measurements performed daily) we recommend the patient to 
seek medical advice.
The instrument does not replace a cardiac examination, but 
serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.
