Why measure your blood pressure? Blood pressure measurement can highly reflect one's health condition. High blood pressure is potentially linked to serious illnesses such as stroke, heart disease and kidney failure. Since there is no symptom most of the time, many hypertensive people do not realize they are at risk until their health is seriously threatened.
HOW THE BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR WORKS This product uses the Oscillometric Measuring method to detect your blood pressure. Before every measurement, the unit establishes a "zero pressure" equivalent to the air pressure. Then it starts inflating the wrist cuff to 180mmHg or higher until it senses that it has blocked your blood in the artery.
SETTING DATE, TIME AND MEASUREMENT UNITS It is important to set the clock before using your blood pressure monitor, so that a time stamp can be assigned to each record that is stored in the memory. 1. When the unit is off, press and hold SET for 2 seconds to enter the setting mode.
VOICE PLAYBACK OF BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENTS The BPW813 features voice playback during and after blood pressure measurement results, as well as general instructions to help you prepare for taking measurements. When the unit has finished taking your measurement, your blood pressure readings, pulse and blood pressure classification are announced.

• Be sure to set the clock before taking your first measurement, or whenever you replace the batteries, so that the date and time are stored in the memory with your history. For instructions, refer to p. 6. • It is important to relax when taking your blood pressure.
Lying Position your wrist on a support, down cushion, or your thigh so that it is parallel with your heart with the palm facing up. 3. Relax your hand and press to turn on the unit. A voice message will remind you to relax and remain still.
NOTE • The most recent record (1) is shown first. Each new measurement is assigned to the first (1) record. All other records are pushed back one digit (e.g., 2 becomes 3, and so on), and the last record (60) is dropped from the list.
