How do I evaluate my blood pressure?

The triangle on the left-hand edge of the display 

BL

 points at the 

range within which the measured blood pressure value lies. The 

value is either within the optimum (green), elevated (yellow) or high 

(red) range. The classification corresponds to the following ranges 

defined by international guidelines (ESH, ESC, JSH). Data in mmHg.

The higher value is the one that determines the evaluation. 

Example: a blood pressure value of 

140/80

 mmHg or a value of 

130/90

 mmHg indicates «blood pressure too high».

Appearance of the Pulse Arrhythmia (PAD)

This symbol 

BT

 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:



In MAM mode Atrial Fibrillation (AF) will also be checked: 

follow the directions in chapter «2.».



If the symbol appears, select MAM mode and measure 

again: see details in chapter «2.».

6. Data Memory

This device automatically stores the last 99 measurement values.

Viewing the stored values

Press the M-button 

3

 briefly, when the device is switched off. The 

display first shows «

M

» 

AP

 and «

A

», which stands for the average 

of all stored values.

Pressing the M-button again displays the previous value. Pressing 

the M-button repeatedly enables you to move from one stored 

value to another.



Blood pressure readings with suboptimal cuff fit 

AR

-A are 

not considered in the average value. 



Pay attention that the maximum memory capacity of 99 

memories is not exceeded. 

When the 99 memory is full, the 

oldest value is automatically overwritten with the 100th 

value.

 Values should be evaluated by a doctor before the 

memory capacity is reached – otherwise data will be lost.

Clearing all values

If you are sure that you want to permanently remove all stored 

values, hold down the M-button (the device must have been 

switched off beforehand) until «

CL ALL

» appears and then 

release the button. To permanently clear the memory, press the 

MAM button while «

CL ALL

» is flashing. Individual values cannot 

be cleared.



Cancel deletion: 

press ON/OFF button

 while «

CL ALL

» 

is flashing.

7. Battery Indicator and Battery change

Low battery

When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol 

AQ

will flash as soon as the device is switched on (partly filled battery 

displayed). Although the device will continue to measure reliably, you 

should obtain replacement batteries. 

Flat battery – replacement

When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol 

AQ

 will flash as soon 

as the device is switched on (flat battery displayed). You cannot 

take any further measurements and must replace the batteries.

1. Open the battery compartment

 at the back of the device.

Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the 

Arrhythmia indicator

This device is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also 

analyses pulse irregularity during measurement. The device 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.

This device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves 

to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.
