IMPORTANT INFORMATION Normal blood pressure fluctuation
all physical activity, excitement, stress, eating, drinking, smoking, body
posture and many other activities or factors (including taking a blood
pressure measurement) will influence blood pressure value. because of this, it
is mostly unusual to obtain identical multiple blood pressure readings.
blood pressure fluctuates continually —– day and night. the highest value
usually appears in the daytime and lowest one usually at midnight. typically,
the value begins to increase at around 3:00am, and reaches to highest level in
the daytime while most people are awake and active.
Considering the above information, it is recommended that you measure your
blood pressure at approximately the same time each day.
please always relax a minimum of 1 to 1.5 minutes between measurements to
allow the blood circulation in your arm to recover. It is rare that you obtain
identical blood pressure readings each time.

INTENDED USE
fully automatic blood pressure monitor is for use by medical professionals or
at home and is a non-invasive blood pressure measurement system intended to
measure the diastolic and systolic blood pressures and pulse rate of an adult
individual by using a non-invasive technique in which an inflatable cuff is
wrapped around the upper arm. the cuff circumference is limited to 22cm-48cm
(approx. 8 21/32″~18 29/32″).
CONTRAINDICATION
It is inappropriate for people with serious arrhythmia to use this electronic
blood pressure monitor.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
based on oscillometric methodology and silicon integrated pressure sensor,
blood pressure and pulse rate can be measured automatically and non-
invasively. the LCD display will show blood pressure and pulse rate. the most
recent 60 measurements can be stored in the memory with date and time stamp.
the voice function will ease the operation. the Electronic blood pressure
monitor corresponds to the below standards: IEC 60601-1:2005/En
60601-1:2006/aC:2010 (medical electrical equipment — part 1: general
requirements for basic safety and essential performance), IEC60601-1-2:2007/En

NOTICE
1. read all of the information in the operation guide and any other
literature in the box before operating the unit.
2. Stay quiet, calm and rest for 5 minutes before blood pressure measurement.
3. the cuff should be placed at the same level as your heart. 4. During
measurement, neither speak nor move your body and arm. 5. measuring on same
arm for each measurement. 6. please always relax at least 1 or 1.5 minutes
between measurements
to allow the blood circulation in your arm to recover. prolonged over-
inflation (cuff pressure exceed 300 mmHg or maintained above 15 mmHg for
longer than 3 minutes) of the bladder may cause ecchymoma of your arm. 7. this
Electronic blood pressure monitor s is designed for adults
and should never be used on infants or young children. Consult your physician
or other health care professionals before use on older children. 8. Do not use
this unit in a moving vehicle, this may result in erroneous measurement. 9.
blood pressure measurements determined by this monitor are equivalent to those
obtained by a trained observer using the cuff/stethoscope auscultation method,
within the limits prescribed by the american national Standard Institute,
Electronic or automated sphygmomanometers. 10. Information regarding potential

most recent one. If no result has been stored, zero will appear on LCD.
c. If the voice function is switched on, the monitor will speak out
measurement tips.
d. then the monitor inflates the cuff until sufficient pressure has built up
for a measurement.
29
ENGLISH
then the monitor slowly releases air from the cuff and carries out the
measurement. finally the blood pressure and pulse rate will be calculated and
displayed on the LCD screen. the blood pressure classification indicator and
Irregular heartbeat symbol (if any) will blink on the screen. If the voice
function is on, it will announce the measurement result. the result will be
automatically stored in the monitor. e. after measurement, the monitor will
