Power Requirements

• The Base Unit is powered by four AA-size batteries.
• Use of batteries recommended by CASIO or their equivalents is
recommended.
Important!
• Replace batteries as soon as possible after the low battery indicator
( ) appears on the display.
• Make sure that the (+) and (–) ends of the batteries are oriented
correctly when you load them.
• Never mix new batteries with old ones.
• Never mix batteries of different types.
• Be sure to remove the batteries from the Base Unit if you do not plan
to use it for a long time.
• The original batteries that come with the Base Unit are not
rechargeable. Never try to charge them.
• The original batteries that come with the Base Unit are loaded at the
factory before shipment. Because of time spend in transit and storage,
the original batteries may not provide the service life indicated below.
• Should batteries ever leak, immediately wipe the fluid from inside the
battery compartment, taking care not to get any on your skin.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of small children. If a battery is
accidentally swallowed, immediately contact a physician.
• Leaving old batteries in the Base Unit can cause unexpected
problems.
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with the regulations and laws
in your particular country or area.

reload them.
AFFIXING THE CUFF TO YOUR ARM
• Affix the cuff to your arm so it is in contact with bare skin.
• If you are wearing clothing made of thick material (such as a sweater),
it is better to remove the thick clothing than to roll up the sleeve.
! Insert the plug of the cuff into the Base
Unit.
• Make sure you insert the plug as far
as it will go.
@ Widen the opening of the cuff and then slip it over your left arm.
The cuff material should form a
loop, with the end of the material
passing through the oblong metal
ring. Pull the end of the material
through the ring so the cuff is
snug on your arm, double it back
against the ring, and secure it in
place with the fastening tape.
If the end of the material is
accidentally pulled out from
the metal ring, insert it back
in, making sure that the
fastening tape is facing
outward.
• Always have the cuff on your left arm whenever taking readings for
the purpose of setting the Watch's basic data. If you are simply
taking readings with the Base Unit only, however, you can have the
cuff on your right arm.
# Pull on the end of the cuff material until the cuff is snug on your arm,
and use the fastening tape to secure it in place.
Tighten the cuff until
all of the open space
between your arm and
the cuff is eliminated.
• Take care that you
do not over tighten
the cuff.
• Leaving space between the cuff and your arm, can cause over
inflation, and apply very strong pressure to your arm. It can also
interfere with proper measurement.

There should be about one
or two centimeters between
the edge of the cuff and
your elbow joint.

located at the top of your biceps.
• The tube should align
approximately with your middle
finger.
