The ECG electrode must be positioned directly against the skin.
If your skin or hands are dry, moisten them using a damp cloth
before taking the measurement.
If the ECG electrodes are dirty, remove the dirt using a soft cloth or
cotton bud dampened with disinfectant alcohol.
During the measurement, do not touch your body with the hand
with which you are taking the measurement.
Please note that there must be no skin contact between your right
and left hand. Otherwise, the measurement cannot be taken
correctly.
Stay still during the measurement, do not speak and hold the device
still. Movements of any kind will falsify the measurements.
If possible, take the measurement when sitting and not when
standing.
Warnings and Cautionary Advices
When connecting external electrodes and/or patient cables, make
sure that the connectors never come into contact with other
conductive parts, or with earth. In particular, make sure that all of
the ECG electrodes are attached to the patient, to prevent them
from contacting conductive parts or earth.
If using the ECG for long-term monitoring, periodically inspect the
electrode application site to ensure skin quality. If the skin quality
changes, replace the electrodes or change the application site.
Do not use this device during defibrillation.
Interference from a non-grounded instrument near the patient and
electro surgery interference can causes problems with the
waveform.
The ST algorithm has been tested for accuracy of the ST segment
data. The significance of the ST segment changes need to be
determined by a clinician.
Before using Oximeter
Before using Daily Check, Oximeter or Sleep Monitor function, pay
attention to the following points in order to obtain precise measurements.
The finger inserted in SpO

sensor must be clean to ensure proper
reading.
Any of the following conditions may cause inaccurate
measurements, including but not limited to:
-
Flickering or very bright light;
