CLEANING METHOD OF CUFF
After cleaning the cuff with a neutral detergent, lightly rinse
it with water and let it dry in the air. Hard rubbing or wash-

ing in a washing machine will cause air leakage. Also, be
careful not to get water into the air hose.

General Remarks on blood pressure
measurement• This Product should not be used to monitor cardiac arrhythmia.

• If the cuff is to be deflated quickly, depress “POWER”
switch.
• The attached cuff is suited for an arm circumstance of 22cm to
32cm.
• When attaching the cuff, rubber cuff hose should beplaced on the inside of your arm on top of the arterial.
• Self measurement is no therapy! In no case may you
change the dosage of medication prescribed by your physician.
• In operation for blood pressure measurement, you should
urinate and should remain relatively still for 10 to 15 minutes prior to measurement.
• Exercise, eating and drinking, smoking, etc., prior to measurement may affect the results.
• The blood pressure varies constantly throughout the day. Measurement should be made regularly at the same time each day.
• Do NOT be impressed by the results of one measurement.
Keep a record of blood pressure variations. Many readings tell a story.
• Emotional stress may tend to cause pressure to rise.

Systolic Blood Pressure

For proper measurement of blood pressure• Take a deep breath five or six time and then relax before
measuring blood pressure. If you are tense when taking
the measurement, you will not get a valid reading.
• Blood pressure will be elevated when you are in a worrisome or irritated state, suffering from lack of sleep orconstipation, or after exercise or a meal.

- Eng 2 -• The memory is erased if the batteries are removed for
replacement, etc. and a record should be kept of any necessary data.

Precautions for maintenance- Eng 3 -Français• Do NOT store the blood pressure monitor where it will be
exposed to direct sunlight, high temperature (over 60˚C),
low temperature (below –20˚C), high relative humidity(over 95%) or in a dusty place.
• Do NOT expose the blood pressure monitor to under force
or vibration, or drop it.
• Remove the battery/batteries when not in use for a long period.
• Do NOT disassemble the apparatus.
• Do NOT bend the cuff or air hose unnecessarily.
• NEVER wipe the blood pressure monitor with thinner or
benzene, as they may damage it.

Deutch• If you suffer from heart disease, high blood pressure orother circulatory disease, please consult your doctor first.
• If you feel abnormal pressure of the cuff during use or
any other irregularity, reduce the pressure by immediately switching off the power or removing the batteries
and consult the sales outlet where purchased.
• If you think the measured value is abnormal or if measuring makes you feel unwell, discontinue use and consult
your doctor.
• Measurement of blood pressure may not be possible forsomeone with a weak pulse or arrhythmia.
• Congestion, swelling, etc. may occur in some people.
• If blood pressure is measured repeatedly, an accurate result will not be achieved. An interval of about 10 minutes
should be allowed.

Precautions for use

Português

PRECAUTION FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE

Español• Do NOT measure blood pressure immediately after drinking coffee or tea or smoking.
• Measure blood pressure with a relaxed and quiet posture. Keep the center of the cuff at the level of your heart,and do NOT move your arm or talk during measurement.
• Do NOT keep on measuring so many times, as your arm
will have built up congestion of blood, and you will not
get a valid reading.

English• Putting on the cuff is one of the most important tasks for
ensuring proper measurement of blood pressure. Wind
the cuff around the arm and tighten it so that one finger
may be inserted between the cuff and arm.
• Do NOT measure blood pressure after bathing or drinking.
• When you feel like relieving yourself, you should do sobefore measuring blood pressure.
• Measure blood pressure where the room temperature isabout 20˚C. Do NOT measure blood pressure when it is
too cold (below 10˚C) or too hot (above 40˚C) in the room.

• When the monitor is very dirty, wipe it clean with a clothmoistened with Sterilizing alcohol or a neutral detergent,and then wipe it with a dry cloth. Do NOT use thinner or
benzene.

MEASUREMENTS
1. Attaching of Arm Cuff and PostureDuring Measurement

Wind the arm cuff around the left upper arm tightly so thatbottom edge of the cuff is positioned about 1 – 2cm above
the elbow joint.
• When you will wind the cuff, please wind the cuff next tothe skin of possible.
(If measurement is made by rolling the shirts or jacket
up over the arm, this will constrict the upper arm andprevent accurate measurement.)

Unfasten and open the cuff as shown in the figure.

• Cuff tube should be placed on the inside of your arm as
figure.

• Please make sure that the cuff is fastened tightly. Notethat uneven cuff winding will prevent proper measurements.

Rest the elbow on a table so that the section of the upperarm is at the height of the heart. Relax the lower arm acrossthe table and remain still, since movement - artifacts may
falsify the measuring result.
Make measurements in either a seated or reclining posturewith the palm turned upward.

Manual Pressure Setting- Eng 9 -Français

When a person with maximum blood pressure of 170 mmHg
or higher uses the unit for the first time, or after changing
batteries, measure blood pressure using the manual setting. If the automatic pressure setting is used, it may notwork.

DeutchThe measured data are registered automatically, as long as
they are not error.

Italiano

When the measurement has been completed, the systolicblood pressure, the diastolic blood pressure and the pulse
rate are alternately displayed and the air is discharged.
The systolic blood pressure and the diastolic blood pressure are displayed for about 2 seconds and the pulse isdisplayed for about 1 second.

● When several people use the unit, set the pressure value
manually. Please note that if the manual pressure setting is not used, pressure will be automatically applied
based on the value set by the previous user.
If the previous user had a high pressure setting, thathigh pressure will automatically be used for the current
user. If you feel pain in your arm, press the “POWER /START” switch immediately to turn of the power.
1. Put the arm cuff around your arm, plug the air hose
into the unit, and keep your arm at the level of yourheart.
2. Keep the “POWER / START” switch depressed until
the pressure display shows the optimal pressure setting. (The optimal pressure setting is about 40 mmHg
higher than your usual maximum blood pressure.)
3. When the pressure display reaches the optimal pressure value, release the “POWER / START” switch. Whenthe “POWER / START” switch is released pressurization will finish and measurement will start. Manual pressure settings can be selected between 160 mmHg - 280
mmHg. If you release the “POWER / START” switch
before reaching 160 mmHg, the unit will pressurize to
160 mmHg. If the unit senses that the pressure is nothigh enough, it will apply more pressure.

Español● This product automatically sets the pressure based on
the previous measurement, so you can easily measure
blood pressure by pressing one button without resetting the pressure for each measurement. If several people
use the unit, we recommend using the manual settings
as follows.

EnglishAutomatic Pressure Setting3. Turn Power OFF

Battery cover

Press the “POWER / START” switch to turn off.

Remove the battery cover at mainframe and replace fourtype “AA” batteries.

4. Subsequent Measurement
Batteries are almost empty.

When a measurement is need again, 10 minutes, interval
is necessary between measurements.

Batteries are normal.

5. Automatic Power OFF Function
If the unit is left without any operation after measurement, an “Automatic Power-OFF Function” runs to turnoff the power after approximately 3 minutes. To continue
measurement, press the “POWER / START” switch again.

6. Battery Replacement
If the batteries are almost empty, the “” mark will be
displayed. In this case, batteries should be replaced withnew one.

Note: The memory data are erased when you replace thebatteries.
• The batteries that are included power the monitor. They
may not last as long as indicated.
• If manganese batteries are used at a low room temperature, such as in the winter or for other reasons, the batteries may not function properly and you may not be able
to measure your blood pressure.
• Please dispose of used batteries properly to protect theenvironmental.
