☞ Further information

Measurements should not occur soon after each other, since otherwise, the results will be

falsified. Wait therefore for several minutes in a relaxed position, sitting or lying, before you

repeat a measurement.

5. 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

The sound transmission is

poor, distorted or there is

extraneous noise.

The pressure does not rise

although the bulb is pumping.

The deflation rate can not

be set to 2 - 3 mmHg/sec. by

adjusting the air release valve.

Pointer is not at 0 +/- 3 mmHg

at rest.

☞ 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 (rest condition)!

If, in spite of observing all these factors, the fluctuations are more than 15 mmHg, and/or you

Remedy

1. Check the earpieces if they are plugged or cracked. If not,

make sure they do not fit poorly as worn.

2. Check the tube if it is broken or twisted.

3. Check the bell and diaphragm of chestpiece if there is any crack.

4. Make sure the chestpiece is in proper contact with skin and

over brachial artery during measuring. Clean or replace any

defective parts if found to avoid inaccurate reading.

1. Make sure that the valve is closed.

2. Make sure the cuff is properly connected to bulb and manometer.

3. Check if the cuff, tube and bulb is leaky. Replace the defective

parts if any.

in the airway of the valve. Clean the blockage and try again. If

it still does not work, replace it to avoid inaccurate reading.

1. Make sure that the valve is open for zero check.

2. If still more than 3 mmHg deviation, contact your dealer to

recalibrate the manometer.
