1. The monitor has two memory zones (1 and 2). Each zone can store up to 60 measure-
ments.
2. To read memory values from a selected memory zone, use the User-Switching key to
select a memory zone (1 or 2) from which you want to recall values. Press the Memory
key. The rst reading displayed is the average of all morning readings from the last 7
days.
3. Continue to press the Memory key to view the average of all nighttime readings from
the last 7 days.
4. Press the Memory key again to view the average of the last 3 measurements stored in
memory, and the last previously stored measurement. Every measurement comes with
an assigned memory sequence number.
Note: The memory bank can store up to 60 readings per memory zone. When the num-
ber of readings exceeds 60, the oldest data will be replaced with the new record.
Note: AM is dened as 4:00 AM – 11:59 AM
Note: PM is dened as 6:00 PM – 2:00 AM
1. Press the User-Switching key to select memory zone 1 or memory zone 2.
2. Press and hold the Memory key for approximately 5 seconds, then the data in the mem-
ory zone can be erased automatically.
1. To adjust the date/time/Bluetooth® in the monitor after installing or replacing batter-
ies. The display will show a blinking number showing the year.
2. Change the year by pressing the Memory key, each press will increase the number.
Press the ON/OFF/START key to conrm the entry and the screen will show a blinking
number representing the date.
3. Change the date, the hour and the minute as described in Step 2 above, using the
Memory key to change and the ON/OFF/START key to conrm the entries.
4. After adjusting the date/time, the Bluetooth® symbol (
) and the blinking icon “ ”
will be shown on the display simultaneously. Use the Memory key to choose whether
automatic Bluetooth® data transfer is activated (Bluetooth® symbol ( )+ ) or de-
activated (Bluetooth® symbol ( )+ ) and conrm with the ON/OFF/START key.
5. Press the ON/OFF/START key again, “0” will reappear as the Blood Pressure Monitor is
ready for measurement.
Rossmax provides a free, integrated and user-friendly blood pressure management soft-
ware which can be downloaded and installed on your computer. You may purchase a spe-
cial designed USB cable in order to connect Rossmax’s blood pressure monitor and your
PC. Please visit the website at http://www.rossmax.com for proceeding the downloading
and installation process.
If any abnormality will arise during use, please check the following points.

Note: If the unit still does not work, return it to your dealer. Under no circumstance should
you disassemble and repair the unit by yourself.
1. The unit contains high-precision assemblies. Therefore, avoid extreme temperatures, hu-
midity, and direct sunlight. Avoid dropping or strongly shocking the main unit, and pro-
tect it from dust.
2. Clean the blood pressure monitor body and the cu carefully with a slightly damp, soft
cloth. Do not press. Do not wash the cu or use chemical cleaner on it. Never use thinner,
alcohol or petrol (gasoline) as cleaner.
3. Leaky batteries can damage the unit. Remove the batteries when the unit is not used for
a long time.
4. The unit should not be operated by children so to avoid hazardous situations.
5. If the unit is stored near freezing, allow it to acclimate at room temperature before use.
6. This unit is not eld serviceable. You should not use any tool to open the device nor should
you attempt to adjust anything inside the device. If you have any problems, please contact
the store or the doctor from whom you purchased this unit or please contact Rossmax
International Ltd.
7. As a common issue for all blood pressure monitors using the oscillometric measurement
function, the device may have diculty in determining the proper blood pressure for us-
ers diagnosed with diabetes, poor circulation of blood, kidney problems, or for users suf-
fered from stroke, or for unconscious users.
8. This unit is able to detect common arrhythmia (atrial or ventricular premature beats or
atrial brillation). The ARR, AFib and PC icons are displayed after the measurement if Atrial
Fibrillation and Premature Contraction was detected during the measurement. If ARR,
AFib or PC icons are displayed, you are advised to wait for a while and take another meas-
urement. It is strongly recommended that you consult your physician if the ARR, AFib or
PC icons appear often.
9. While the given device is able to detect specic pulse arrhythmia, the measurement ac-
curacy of the blood pressure meter may be impaired with the occurrence of pulse ar-
rhythmia.
10. To stop operation at any time, press the ON/OFF/START key, and the air in the cu will be
rapidly exhausted.
11. Once the ination reaches 300 mmHg, the unit will start deating rapidly for safety rea-
sons.
12. Please note that this unit can be a home healthcare product, but it is not intended to
serve as a substitute for the advice of a physician or medical professional.
13. Do not use this device for diagnosis or treatment of any health problem or disease. Meas-
urement results are for reference only. Consult a healthcare professional for interpreta-
tion of pressure measurements. Contact your physician if you have or suspect any medi-
cal problem. Do not change your medications without the advice of your physician or
healthcare professional.

2. Press the ON/OFF/START key. All digits will light up, checking the display functions. The
checking procedure will be completed in 2 seconds.
3. After all symbols appear, the display will show a blinking “0”. The monitor is ready to meas-
ure and will automatically inate the cu slowly to start measurement.
4. Bluetooth® will automatically be activated on the device, please see Data Transfer via
Bluetooth®. You can also start measurement directly by pressing the ON/OFF/START key
again, but the current measured reading (Systolic, Diastolic and Pulse) will not automati-
cally be transferred to the App.
5. When the measurement is completed, the cu will exhaust the pressure inside. Systolic
pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse will be shown simultaneously on the LCD screen.
The measurement is then automatically stored into the pre-designated memory zone.
6. In order to enhance the probability of pulse arrhythmia detection by the PARR technol-
ogy, measurement repetitions are recommended.
This monitor will re-inate automatically to approximately 220 mmHg if the system detects
that your body needs more pressure to measure your blood pressure.
Note: 1. This monitor automatically switches o approximately 1 minute after last key op-
eration.
2. To interrupt the measurement, simply press the ON/OFF/START key; the cu will deate
immediately.
3. During the measurement, do not talk or move your arm or hand muscles.
14. Electromagnetic interference: The device contains sensitive electronic components.
Avoid strong electrical or electromagnetic elds in the direct vicinity of the device (e.g.
mobile telephones, microwave ovens). These may lead to temporary impairment of
measurement accuracy.
15. Dispose of device, batteries, components and accessories according to local regulations.
16. This monitor may not meet its performance specication if stored or used outside tem-
perature and humidity ranges specied in Specications.
17. Please note that when inating, the functions of the limb in question may be impaired.
18. During the blood pressure measurement, blood circulation must not be stopped for an
unnecessarily long time. If the device malfunctions, remove the cu from the arm.
19. Avoid any mechanical restriction, compression or bending of the cu line.
20. Do not allow sustained pressure in the cu or frequent measurements. The resulting re-
striction of the blood ow may cause injury.
21. Ensure that the cu is not placed on an arm in which the arteries or veins are undergoing
medical treatment, e.g. intravascular access or therapy, or an arteriovenous (AV) shunt.
22. Do not apply the cu on the side, where a mastectomy has been performed in your
patient history.
23. Do not place the cu over wounds as this may cause further injury.
24. Only ever use the cus provided with the monitor or original replacement cus. Other-
wise erroneous results will be recorded.
25. Batteries can be fatal if swallowed. You should therefore store the batteries and products
where they are inaccessible to small children. If a battery has been swallowed, call a doc-
tor immediately.
26. Do not use the tubing and/or AC adaptor for any other purpose than those specied, as
they can cause risk of strangulation.
27. Do not service or maintain device and cu while in use.
