Type BF applied part
Dear Customer,
Your new Microlife blood pressure monitor is a reliable medical
device for taking measurements on the upper arm. It is simple to
use, accurate and comes highly recommended for blood pressure
monitoring in your home. This device was developed in collabora-
tion with physicians and clinical tests carried out prove its
measurement accuracy to be of a very high standard.*
Microlife AFIB detection is the world’s leading digital blood pres-
sure measurement technology for the detection of atrial fibrillation
(AFIB) and hypertension. These are the two top risk factors of
getting a stroke or heart disease in the future. It is important to
detect AFIB and hypertension at an early stage, even though you
may not experience any symptoms. Appropriate treatment will
reduce your risk of suffering a stroke. For this reason, it is recom-
mended that you visit your doctor when the device gives an AFIB
signal during your blood pressure measurement. The AFIB algo-
rithm of Microlife has been clinically investigated by several prom-
inent clinical investigators and showed that the device detects
patients with AFIB at a certainty of 97-100%. 1,2

1. Important Facts about Blood Pressure and Self-
Measurement
•Blood pressure is the pressure of the blood flowing in the
arteries generated by the pumping of the heart. Two values, the
systolic (upper) value and the diastolic (lower) value, are
always measured.
•The device indicates the pulse rate (the number of times the
heart beats in a minute).
•Permanently high blood pressure values can damage your
health and must be treated by your doctor!
•Always discuss your values with your doctor and tell him/her if
you have noticed anything unusual or feel unsure. Never rely
on single blood pressure readings.
•There are several causes of excessively high blood pressure
values. Your doctor will explain them in more detail and offer
treatment where appropriate. Besides medication, weight loss
and exercise can also lower your blood pressure.
•Under no circumstances should you alter the dosages of
any drugs prescribed by your doctor!
•Depending on physical exertion and condition, blood pressure
is subject to wide fluctuations as the day progresses. You
should therefore take your measurements in the same
quiet conditions and when you feel relaxed! Take at least
two readings every time (in the morning and in the evening) and
average the measurements.
•It is quite normal for two measurements taken in quick succes-
sion to produce significantly different results. Therefore we
recommend using the MAM technology.
•Deviations between measurements taken by your doctor or in
the pharmacy and those taken at home are quite normal, as
these situations are completely different.
•
Several measurements
provide much more reliable information
about your blood pressure than just one single measurement.
Therefore we recommend using the MAM technology.
•Leave a small break of at least 15 seconds between two
measurements.
•If you suffer from an irregular heartbeat, measurements taken
with this device should be evaluated with your doctor.
3BP A7 Touch EN
•The pulse display is not suitable for checking the
frequency of heart pacemakers!
•If you are pregnant, you should monitor your blood pressure
very closely as it can change drastically during this time!
This monitor is specially tested for use in pregnancy and
pre-eclampsia. When you detect unusual high readings in
pregnancy, you should measure again after 4 hours. If the
reading is still too high, consult your doctor or gynecologist.
How do I evaluate my blood pressure?
The higher value is the one that determines the evaluation.
Example: a blood pressure value of 140/80 mmHg or a value of
130/90 mmHg indicates «blood pressure too high».
2. Important Facts about Atrial Fibrillation (AFIB)
What is Atrial Fibrillation (AFIB)?
Normally, your heart contracts and relaxes to a regular beat.
Certain cells in your heart produce electrical signals that cause the
heart to contract and pump blood. Atrial fibrillation occurs when
rapid, disorganized electrical signals are present in the heart’s two
upper chambers, called the atria; causing them to contract irregu-
larly (this is called fibrillation). Atrial fibrillation is the most common
form of heart arrhythmia or irregular heart beat. It often causes no
symptoms, yet it significantly increases your risk of stroke. You’ll
need a doctor to help you control the problem.
How does AFIB impact my family or me?
People with AFIB have a five-fold higher risk of getting stroke.
Since the chance of having a stroke increases with age, AFIB
screening is recommended for people over 65 years and older.
However, for people from the age of 50 years with high blood pres-
sure (hypertension), diabetes, coronary heart failure or have had a
previous stroke AFIB screening is also recommended. Early diag-
nosis of AFIB followed by adequate treatment can significantly
reduce the risk of getting stroke.
In young people AFIB screening is not recommended as it could
generate false positive results and unnecessary anxiety. In addi-
tion, young individuals with AFIB have a relatively low risk of
getting stroke as compared to elder people.

Microlife AFIB detection provides a convenient way to screen
for AFIB (only in AFIB/MAM mode)
Knowing your blood pressure and knowing whether you or your
family members have AFIB can help reduce the risk of stroke.
Microlife AFIB detection provides a convenient way to screen for
AFIB whilst taking your blood pressure.
Risk factors you can control
High blood pressure and AFIB are both considered «controllable»
risk factors for strokes. Knowing your blood pressure and knowing
whether you have AFIB is the first step in proactive stroke prevention.
3. Using the Device for the First Time
Inserting the batteries
Switch the lock switch AK to «unlock» position. The battery
compartment 5 is on the bottom of the device. Insert the batteries
(4 x 1.5 V, size AAA), thereby observing the indicated polarity.
Setting the date and time
1. After the new batteries are fitted, the year number flashes in the
display. You can set the year by pressing either the «+» 9 or
the «-» AT button. To confirm and then set the month, press
enter 1.
2. Press the «+» 9 or the «-» AT button to set the month. Press
enter 1 to confirm and then set the day.
3. Follow the instructions above to set the day, hour and minutes.
4. Once you have set the minutes and pressed enter, the date and
time are set and the time is displayed.
5. If you want to change the date and time, press and hold Date/
Time
AN
for approx. 3 seconds until the year number starts
flashing. Now you can enter the new values as described above.
Selecting the correct cuff
Microlife offers different cuff sizes. Select the cuff size to match the
circumference of your upper arms (measured by close fitting in the
centre of the upper arm).
