Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. Batteries may explode or leak.
Remove batteries if the device is not likely to be used for some time. Worn batteries are harmful for the environment. Do not dispose with the household garbage.

Measurement Principle

This product uses the oscillometric measurement method to detect blood pressure. Before each measurement, the unit will establish a “zero pressure” equivalent to the air pressure. Then it will start inflating the arm cuff, while the unit will detect pressure oscillations generated by the beat-to-beat pulsatile. This will determine the systolic and diastolic pressure, and also your pulse rate.
The device also compares the longest and shortest time intervals for detected pulse waves, to calculate the mean time interval, and then calculates your standard deviation. The unit will display a warning signal with the reading to indicate the detection of an irregular heartbeat if the difference in the time intervals is over 25%.

Setting Date, Time and Measurement Units

It is important to set the clock before using the blood pressure monitor so that a time stamp can be assigned to each record that is stored in the memory. (The setting range for years is 2014 ~ 2054, and time format is 12H).

When the monitor is off, hold the SET button for 3 seconds to enter the year setting mode. Alternately, when the monitor is off press the SET button once to display the time, then hold the SETbutton to enter the year setting mode.
Press MeM to change the LYzaky tach press will noise the number by one. The numbers will cycle back it you acederkaly pass the curter year.
When you get the right year, press the SET button to select the year, then go to the next tech

Note: you can locate the main artery by pressing with 2 fingers approximately 2cm above the bend of your elbow on the inside of your left arm. Identify where the pulse can be felt the strongest. This is your main artery.
2. The cuff should be snug but not too tight. You should be able to insert one finger between the cuff and your arm.
3. Sit comfortably, with the arm you are measuring resting comfortably on a flat surface.
4. Patients with hypertension: the middle of the cuff should be at the level of the right atrium of your heart; before starting measurement, please sit comfortably with your legs uncrossed, your feet flat on the floor and your back and arm both supported.

Measurement

Rest for at least 5 minutes before taking your measurements.
Wait for at least 3 minutes between measurements. This will allow for your blood circulation to recover.
For a meaningful comparison, try to measure under similar conditions each time. For example, take your daily measurements are approximately the same time, in the same location and position, or otherwise as directed by your physician.

Starting the Measurement

Step One : When the monitor is off, press START/STOP to turn the monitor on, and it will then complete the whole measurement process.
Step Two: Press START/STOP to power off, otherwise the unit will automatically turn off after one minute of inactivity.

Information

What are systolic pressure and diastolic pressure?

When ventricles contract and pump blood out of the heart, the blood pressure reaches its maximum value in the cycle, which is called systolic pressure. When the ventricles relax, the blood pressure reaches its minimum value in the cycle, which is called diastolic pressure. What is the standard blood pressure classification?
The blood press classification published by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the International Society of Hypertension (ISH) in 1999 is as follows
CAUTION: Only your doctor can tell you your normal BP range. Please contact your doctor if your measuring results fall outside of this range. Please note that only your doctor can tell you if your blood pressure value has reached a dangerous level.

Irregular Heartbeat Detector

An irregular heartbeat (IHB) is detected when a heartbeat rhythm varies while the unit is measuring the systolic and diastolic blood pressure. During each measurement, the monitor records the heartbeat intervals and calculates the average. If any average is larger than or equal to 25%, the irregular heartbeat symbol will appear on the display when the measurement results appear.
CAUTION : The appearance of the IHB icon indicates that a pulse irregularity consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected during the measurement. Usually, this is NOT a cause for concern. However, if the symbol appears often, we recommend you seek medical advice. Please note that this device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.

Why does my blood pressure fluctuate throughout the day?

Individual blood pressure varies multiple times every day. It is also affected by the way you tie your cuff and your measurement position, so please measure the same conditions.
If the person is taking medication, the measurements may vary.
Wait at least 3 minutes and then take another measurement.

Why do I get different results at home compared to a hospital?

Blood pressure can be different throughout the day due to weather, emotional state, exercise etc. Also, there is what is known as the “white coat” effect, which means blood pressure normally increases in clinical settings.
If taking your measurement at home, pay attention to the following:
Check the cuff is tied properly
Check if the cuff is too tight or too loose Check that the cuff is positioned correctly
If feeling anxious, take 2-3 deep breaths and relax and take your measurement later
Will the result differ if taken on the other arm?
Both arms will be fairly accurate to your current situation, however, to ensure that the results are as accurate as possible, please always measure the same arm.
