Error
Description
Remedy
Signal too weak
The pulse signals on the cuff are too
weak. Reposition the cuff and repeat the
measurement*
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.
No pressure in the cuff
An adequate pressure cannot be
generated in the cuff. A leak may have
occurred. Check the cuff is correctly
connected and is not too loose. Replace
the batteries if necessary. Repeat the
measurement.
Abnormal result
The measuring signals are inaccurate
and no result can therefore be displayed.
Read through the checklist for performing
reliable measurements and then repeat
the measurement.*
Pulse or cuff pressure
too high
The pressure in the cuff is too high (over
300 mmHg) OR the pulse is too high (over
200 beats per minute). Relax for 5 minutes
and repeat the measurement.*
Pulse too low
The pulse is too low (less than 40 beats
per minute). Repeat the measurement.*
* Please consult your doctor, if this or any other problem occurs repeatedly.
If you think the results are unusual, please read through the information in >
carefully.
