GETTING ACQUAINTED

Congratulations upon your selection of this CASIO Blood Pressure
Monitor Watch (BP-1B, Module No. 2196). To get the most out of your
purchase, be sure to carefully read this manual and keep it on hand for
later reference when necessary.
Introduction
Read This Important Information!
This Watch measures blood pressure using a fingertip pulse wave
detection system. This means that the data produced by this Watch is
not actually a measurement of your blood pressure. Instead it represents
a value calculated using a blood pressure measurement taken using the
CASIO Digital Blood Pressure Monitor Base Unit (BP-1M), and data
measured by the Watch.
• All mentions of "the Watch" in this manual refer to the Blood Pressure
Monitor Watch (BP-1B, Module 2196). All mentions of "the Base Unit"
in this manual refer to the CASIO Cuff Type Digital Blood Pressure
Monitor (BP-1M).
Warning!
• Be sure to input your basic data before using this Watch for blood
pressure measurements. Also, you should update your basic data
periodically (about once a month). If another person uses this Watch,
basic data for that person must be input before measuring blood
pressure.
• Blood pressure constantly fluctuates. Any diagnosis based on
changes in blood pressure should be performed by qualified
physicians only.
• Individuals under treatment for heart ailments, on dialysis, on blood
pressure reduction medication, etc., and individuals wearing a
pacemaker should always make medical decisions under the advice of
his or her main physicians.
• In very rare cases, individuals with poor circulation or who possess
other physical characteristics may experience problems with achieving
proper readings with the Watch. Measurement may be impossible or
large measurement error may be caused if you are unable to hold
your finger steady on the Watch during measurement.
• Do not use a mobile phone or other device that emits radio waves in
the vicinity of this Watch while taking blood pressure readings. Do not
take blood pressure readings in the vicinity of a TV, microwave oven,
etc. Electrostatic noise can also make it impossible to achieve correct
blood pressure readings with this Watch.
• Do not take blood pressure readings with this Watch while riding in a
train, automobile, or other vehicle. Vibration and noise can make it
impossible to achieve correct blood pressure readings with this Watch.
• Never try to take this Watch apart or try to perform self-repair. Doing
so can lead to malfunction of the Watch and other serious problems.
• When the battery needs replacement, be sure to take the Watch to the
Store/Dealer where purchased.
