BIOS W100 Instruction Manual - Malfunction
Malfunction
Remedy
The display remains blank when the device
is switched on.
1. Check batteries for correct polarity.
The device frequently fails to measure
the blood pressure values, or the values
measured are too low or too high.
1. Check the positioning of the cuff and
cuff tension. The cuff should be snug but
not tight.
2. Measure the blood pressure again,
ensuring that you have remained
motionless for a sufficient amount of time
to ensure an accurate reading
Every measurement produces varying results
although the instrument functions normally
and the values displayed are normal.
Note that blood pressure fluctuates
continuously; therefore measurements will
show some variability.
Blood pressure values measured differ from
those measured by the doctor.
Record the daily development of the values
and consult your doctor.
Note: Individuals visiting their doctor
frequently experience anxiety which can
result in a higher blood pressure reading
than at home

dust or direct sunlight. If the unit has been stored at very low or freezing

b) Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use gas, thinners or similar
solvents. Spots on the cuff and unit can be removed carefully with a
slightly moistened cloth and soapsuds.
