Use alkaline batteries (LR6 type, AA type, Mignon) or the specified Ni-MH

batteries.

Do not mix new and used batteries in the recorder.

Remove the batteries from the recorder, if it will not be used for a long period of

time and unless there is no risk of a SAFETY HAZARD arising.

A malfunctioning recorder

If the recorder malfunctions, stop the operation, attach a note "Do not use this

recorder" and store in a safe place to avoid misuse.

Training

Instruct the patient on how to stop the operation if there is an abnormal

measurement, and how to remove the cuff if there is excessive arm pain.

Advise the patient on how to cope with mis-operation and contingencies

Repair

Do not open the recorder case. Contact your nearest A&D dealer if you have

questions.

Blood pressure measurement

Use the recorder on adults.

The recorder may not make a correct measurement when a patient has continuous

arrhythmia or the recorder senses noise due to the patient’s movement.

Please check measurement values by other methods, if you suspect the values.

Do not use this recorder on a person who is using a heartlung machine and a

defibrillator.

Do not use this recorder on a person who is critical or is in an intensive care unit.

Data in memory

A built-in backup battery keeps the important data in memory while replacing the

main batteries. However it works for a short period of time. Perform the battery

replacement swiftly, or you may lose measurement data, the clock setting

information and automatic measurement condition data. The period varies

depending on the battery condition. The backup battery may take 24 hours or

more to be fully charged (depending on the battery condition).

The built-in backup battery (rechargeable) as well as the primary battery (not

rechargeable) will deteriorate along use, which causes to decrease its capacity.

The built-in backup battery will deteriorate due to repetitive backup operations.
