Measurements may be distorted if the device is used close to televisions,
microwave ovens, cellular telephones, X-ray or other devices with strong
electrical fields.
Used equipment, parts and batteries are not treated as ordinary household
waste, and must be disposed of according to the applicable local regulations.
When the AC adapter is used, make sure that the AC adapter can be readily
removed from the electrical outlet when necessary.
When reusing the device, confirm that the device is clean.
Do not modify the device. It may cause accidents or damage to the device.
To measure blood pressure, the arm must be squeezed by the cuff hard
enough to temporarily stop blood flow through the artery. This may cause
pain, numbness or a temporary red mark to the arm. This condition will
appear especially when measurement is repeated successively.
Any pain, numbness, or red marks will disappear with time.
Take care to avoid accidental strangulation of babies or infants with the hose.
Do not twist the air hose during measurement. This may cause injury due
to continuous cuff pressure.
Measuring blood pressure too frequently may cause harm due to blood flow
interference. Check that the operation of the device does not result in
prolonged impairment of blood circulation, when using the device repeatedly.
If you have had a mastectomy, please consult a doctor before using the device.
Do not let children use the device by themselves and do not use the device
in a place within the reach of infants.
There are small parts that may cause a choking hazard if swallowed by
mistake by infants.
Wireless communication devices, such as home networking devices, mobile
phones, cordless phones and their base stations, walkie-talkies can affect
this blood pressure monitor.
Therefore, a minimum distance of 11 feet (3.3 meters) should be kept from
such devices.
Contraindications
The following are precautions for proper use of the device.
Do not apply the cuff to an arm with another medical electrical equipment
attached. The equipment may not function properly.
People who have a severe circulatory deficit in the arm must consult a doctor

Do not self-diagnose the measurement results and start treatment by
yourself. Always consult your doctor for evaluation of the results and
treatment.
Do not apply the cuff on an arm with an unhealed wound.
Do not apply the cuff on an arm receiving an intravenous drip or blood
transfusion. It may cause injury or accidents.
