• Keep batteries away from children. If batteries

are mistakenly swallowed, consult your doctor

immediately.

• Before inserting the batteries, check that the

contacts in the device and on the batteries are

clean and, if necessary, clean them.

• Never charge batteries (unless it is expressly

specified). Risk of explosion!

• Never short-circuit the batteries.

Getting Started

The consequences of having too high blood pressure

are a major cause of death these days. Many people

are unaware that their blood pressure is too high.

This blood pressure monitor helps you to take regular,

comparative measurements.

Proper use

The device is used to measure blood pressure at the

wrist and can save 60 measurement values in each of

two memory spaces. It is suitable for healthy people

and can be used to make comparative measurements –

especially during sporting activities.

13400 EN Aldi AUS Final Content.indd 1513400 EN Aldi AUS Final Content.indd 15 26.06.2012 09:52:4026.06.2012 09:52:40

This device is intended for use in dry, indoor areas

only. The device is only intended for private use and

not for industrial or commercial use. Using the device

under extreme environmental conditions may result in

damage to the device.

What is blood pressure?

Blood pressure is a measurement of the force that

the heart has to exert to pump the blood through the

circulatory system and vital organs in the body. The

higher the pressure, the harder the heart has to work.

13400 EN Aldi AUS Final Content.indd 1613400 EN Aldi AUS Final Content.indd 16 26.06.2012 09:52:4026.06.2012 09:52:40

Systolic and diastolic values

With every heartbeat, blood pressure ﬂ uctuates

between a maximum value (systolic), when the

heart pumps blood into the circulatory system and a

minimum value when the heart ﬁ lls up with blood again

(diastolic). The average of these values is the average

blood pressure.

Blood pressure can be higher than usual if parts of the

circulatory system are restricted, diseased or abnormal

in other ways. High blood pressure can cause damage

to vital organs including the brain and heart.

Measuring range

The blood pressure monitor shows you the blood

pressure (SYS. = systolic and DIA. = diastolic value),

pulse and the time and date on the display. Blood

pressure is measured in mmHg (millimetres of mercury).

13400 EN Aldi AUS Final Content.indd 1713400 EN Aldi AUS Final Content.indd 17 26.06.2012 09:52:4026.06.2012 09:52:40

The classiﬁ cation of blood pressure values is based

on the deﬁ nition and classiﬁ cation by the WHO (World

Health organisation) from 1999. The WHO deﬁ nes high

blood pressure as values above 140 mmHg (systolic

value) and 90 mmHg (diastolic value).

Your blood pressure monitor is ﬁ tted with a colour

indicator that makes it easier to assess the measured

values.

The following summary can help you to assess the

values you measure:

How does the blood pressure monitor work?

Your blood pressure monitor contains high quality

components for measuring the pressure and to display

the values on the display. It also measures and displays

your pulse frequency.

The device measures blood pressure indirectly using

a sleeve around the wrist. Inﬂ ating the sleeve presses

the arteries together so that no more blood can ﬂ ow

through them. If the pressure in the sleeve is then

reduced, this creates a relationship between the sleeve

pressure and the blood pressure.

The device has electronic step valves that can detect

even slight changes during the measurement, which

can be evened out using the sleeve pressure. By

reducing the pressure step-by-step, ﬂ uctuations in the

sleeve are recorded by the device and included in the

assessment. If no ﬂ uctuations are recorded for a step,

the air pressure is reduced. Existing ﬂ uctuations are
