Deluxe Pulse Oximeter

ABOUT PULSE OXIMETERS
This pulse oximeter uses advanced technology, which utilizes revolutionary optical sensor technology to measure both blood oxygen saturation (SpO2%) levels and pulse rate. By placing the finger into the sleeve and one touch of a button, this device will send both red and infrared lights into the skin to collect data and display your blood oxygen and pulse rate.

Turn the hand over so that the LCD screen is now facing you and your finger is pointed up (fig. B).
Push the Multi-directional button to initiate readings (fig. C).
Continue to vertically hold the pulse oximeter to enable readings
To change the direction of the LCD screen display by 180°, press the Multidirectional button for up to two (2) seconds.
Note:
• Signal strength should be greater than one bar to indicate a proper reading (fig. D).

• In the event of weak signal strength, please switch fingers and/or hand and try again.
• For greatest accuracy, limit hand motion during measurement.
• When the finger is removed, the pulse oximeter will turn off after 10 seconds.
