Other possible malfunctions and their elimination
If problems occur when using the device, the following points should be checked and if necessary, the corresponding measures are to be taken:
Malfunction
Remedy
The display remains empty when the instrument is switched on although
the batteries are in place.
1. Check batteries for correct polarity and if necessary insert correctly
2. If the display is unusual, re-insert batteries or exchange them.
The device frequently fails to measure the blood pressure values, or the
values measured are too low (too high).
1. Check the positioning of the cuff.
2. Measure the blood-pressure again in peace and quiet under observance
of the details made under point 5.
Every measurement results in different values, although the device func-
tions normally and normal values are displayed.
Please pay attention to the following information as well as the points
listed under «Common sources of error» and repeat the measurement.
The blood pressure values measured differ from those measured by the
doctor
Record the daily development of the values and consult your doctor about
them
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)!
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 unauthorized opening of the instrument invalidates all guarantee claims!
