Precautions • When the AC adapter is used, make sure that the AC adapter can be readily removed from the electrical outlet when necessary. • 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.

Precautions • 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.

Using the Monitor Transmitting Temporarily Stored Data In cases when the network cannot receive measurement data, the measurement data is temporarily stored in the monitor memory. The data stored in the memory is transmitted the next time a connection is successfully made to the network. A total of 5 sets of measurement data can be stored.

If your systolic pressure is expected to exceed At heart level 230 mmHg, use this procedure. 1. Place the cuff on the arm at heart Press the START button level (preferably the left arm).
What is an Irregular Heartbeat An irregular heartbeat is defined as a hearbeat that varies from the average of all heartbeats. When the monitor detects an irregular rhythm during the measurements, the IHB indicator will appear on the display with the measurement values. Note: We recommend contacting your physician if you see this IHB indicator frequently.
About Blood Pressure What is Blood Pressure? Blood pressure is the force exerted by blood against the walls of the arteries. Systolic pressure occurs when the heart contracts. Diastolic pressure occurs when the heart expands. Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). One’s natural blood pressure is represented by the fundamental pressure, which is measured first thing in the morning while one is still at rest and before eating.

About Blood Pressure Blood Pressure Variations An individual’s blood pressure varies greatly on a daily and seasonal basis. It may vary by 30 to 50 mmHg due to various conditions during the day. In hypertensive individuals variations are even more pronounced. Normally, the blood pressure rises while at work or play and falls to its lowest levels during sleep.
