Usage

General rules when measuring blood pressure yourself

  •  It is recommended that you measure your blood pressure twice a day: once in the morning after getting up and once in the evening.
  • You should therefore avoid taking measurements during stressful periods.
  • Do not take a measurement within 30 minutes of eating, drinking, smoking or exercising.
  • Before the initial blood pressure measurement, make sure always to rest for about 5 minutes.
  • Furthermore, if you want to take several measurements in succession, make sure always to wait for at least 1 minute between the individual measurements.
  • Repeat the measurement if you are unsure of the measured value.

Cleaning and maintenance

  • Clean the device and cuff carefully using a slightly damp cloth only.
  • Do not use any cleaning agents or solvents.
  • Under no circumstances hold the device and cuff under water, as this can cause liquid to enter and damage the device and cuff.
