ERR 1
» Signal too
weak
The pulse signals on the cuff are too
weak. Re-position the cuff and repeat the
measurement.*
«
ERR 2

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

An adequate pressure cannot be generated
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.
