This device always stores the last result at the end of the measure-
ment. To recall the reading, press and hold the ON/OFF button 1
while the device is switched off. Release the button as soon as all
display elements are shown. The stored result will then be shown,
indicated with the letter «M» AP.
7. Battery Indicator and Battery change
Low battery
When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol
AN
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 AN 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 3 on the bottom of the device.
2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the
symbols in the compartment.
Which batteries and which procedure?
Use 2 new, long-life 1.5 V, size AA alkaline batteries.
Do not use batteries beyond their date of expiry.
Remove batteries if the device is not going to be used for a
prolonged period.
Using rechargeable batteries
You can also operate this device 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
device as they may become damaged (total discharge as a
result of low use of the device, even when switched off).
Always remove the rechargeable batteries if you do not
intend to use the device 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.
8. Error Messages
If an error occurs during the measurement, the measurement is
interrupted and an error message, e.g. «ERR 3», is displayed.
* Please immediately consult your doctor, if this or any other
problem occurs repeatedly.
If you think the results are unusual, please read through the
information in «Section 1.» carefully.

Error Description
Potential cause and remedy
«
ERR 1
» Signal too
weak
The pulse signals on the cuff are too weak.
Re-position the cuff and repeat the
measurement.*
«
ERR 2
» Error signal
During the measurement, error signals were
detected by the cuff, caused for instance by
movement or muscle tension. Repeat the
measurement, keeping your arm still.
«
ERR 3
»No pres-
sure in the
cuff
An adequate pressure cannot be gener-
ated in the cuff. A leak may have occurred.
Check that cuff and pump ball are correctly
connected and that the cuff is not fitted too
loosely. Replace the batteries if necessary.
Repeat the measurement.
«
ERR 5
» Abnormal
result
The measuring signals are inaccurate and
no result can therefore be displayed. Read
through the checklist for performing reli-
able measurements and then repeat the
measurement.*
«
HI
» Pulse or cuff
pressure too
high
The pressure in the cuff is too high (over
299 mmHg) OR the pulse is too high (over
200 beats per minute). Relax for 5 minutes
and repeat the measurement.*
«
LO
» Pulse too
low
The pulse is too low (less than 40 beats per
minute). Repeat the measurement.*
