Precautions
Installation or storage location for the device Do not use the device where flammable gases such as anesthetic gases are present. It may cause an explosion. Do not use the device in highly concentrated oxygen environments, such as a high-pressure oxygen chamber or an oxygen tent. Extremes in room temperature, humidity, direct sunlight, shock or dust should be avoided. Use or keep the device in a stable location where there is no slope, no vibration and no mechanical shock (including when shipping). Use or keep the device in a location where the chemicals, medicines or gases are not present. The device and cuff are not water resistant. Measurement may be distorted if the device is used close to televisions, microwave ovens, cellular telephones, X-ray or other devices with strong electrical fields. A strong shock to the device may result in mechanical error or possible injury due to debris. Avoid tightly folding the cuff or storing the hose tightly twisted for long periods, as such treatment may shorten the life of the components.

Display

Confirmation before use Confirm that the device is safe and secure for accurate operation. Operate the device using the provided specified AC adapter. Only the specified options and consumables are allowed for use with this device. When reusing the device, confirm that the device is clean. Do not apply the cuff to an arm if another electrical medical device is already attached. Do not apply the cuff on an arm receiving an intravenous drip or blood transfusion. This device should be used at a doctor or medical worker only. The device is not designed to be operated by a patient to avoid accidents and ensure accurate results. Also, do not use the device for home health care. Do not use the device in an ambulance or ambulance helicopter.
Doing so will prevent the device from providing accurate measurements. Do not use the device where plugging and unplugging of the AC adapter may be difficult. Clinical testing has not been conducted on newborn infants and pregnant women. Do not use on newborn infants or pregnant women. Confirm that there is no harm to the patient when the cuff is applied to the patient’s arm and if the patient has had a mastectomy then avoid the adjacent arm.
Precautions during using the device When error display appears on the device or there are some doubts in the measurement values, confirm the patient’s vital signs by using the palpation or auscultation method. Check that the air hose has not been bent or blocked. Should an error be displayed on the device or test subject, stop the device and take corrective actions to regain safety. Do not wrap the cuff on the arm with a wound. That may not only result in reopening the wound but could also cause an infection. Ensure that the position of the cuff is applied at the same level as the heart. (Otherwise, the blood pressure value results in an error.) Do not start to measure the blood pressure without wrapping the cuff around the arm. That may result in the cuff bursting or other damage. Regularly confirm patient status when the measurement is performed frequently or for a long time. Otherwise, it may cause damage due to peripheral arterial disease. Use the device so that the air hose is not bent or blocked. Using the cuff while the air hose is kinked or bent may result in a peripheral circulatory failure due to a hemostasis in the arm, remaining the air in the cuff. Do not apply the excessive force to the AC adapter cable, such as lifting the device or pulling out the AC adapter, by holding the AC adapter cable. Do not pull out or do not connect the specified AC adapter with a wet hand. That may result in an electrical shock or getting a burn. While measuring, do not connect or disconnect the AC adapter or battery or perform maintenance on them.

Using the Monitor

Do not simultaneously touch tUsing the Monitor he DC jack and the patient. That may result in electrical shock. To measure blood pressure, the arm must be squeezed by the cuff hard enough to cause some numbness and possibly a temporary red mark to the arm. Follow local instructions specified in the hospital when the cuff is used on several or infectious patients. Otherwise cross infection may result. If the patient has a very weak or irregular heart beat, the device may have difficulty in determining the blood pressure. Should the battery short-circuit, it may become hot and potentially cause burns.
Note Do not modify the device. The patient should be relaxed and avoid moving or talking during measurement. Otherwise that may result in a measurement error. To ensure accurate measuring, we recommend measuring the blood pressure after being in a relaxed state for at least five minutes.
Care for after use When the cuff is infected by blood or body fluid, it should be safely disposed of according to local instructions or protocol to avoid any potential spread of infectious disease. Clean the device and cuff with a dry, soft cloth or a cloth dampened with water and a neutral detergent. Never use benzene, thinner or other harsh chemical to clean the device. For full details please read page 28. When carrying out maintenance on the device, turn the power off and remove the power cable from the outlet to prevent a risk of electrical shock. Do not spray, do not pour or do not spill a liquid on the main body, accessories, connectors, buttons or outlet ports. Do not perform autoclave or gas sterilization (EOG, formaldehyde gas or high concentration ozone, etc.) on the device as this could result in degradation. The user (Hospital, clinic, etc.) should have the management responsibility for a use and maintenance for the medical electronic device. Be sure to perform the specified daily and maintenance inspection for safe use.
Specified battery pack Only the specified battery pack is allowed to be used with this device. Used equipment, parts and battery are not treated as ordinary household waste, and must be disposed of according to the applicable local regulations. Be sure to remove the specified AC adapter from the device when the specified battery pack is being re-installed in the device. Otherwise that may result in an electrical shock. Remove the specified battery pack from the device, and keep it elsewhere if you are not going to use the device for a month or more. Recharge the battery once every six months. Otherwise the battery may degrade.
English 4

Be sure to use the device after the battery was recharged. Otherwise that may avoid from proper use for the device using the battery in emergency. If the liquid leaked from the specified battery pack gets into an eye, avoid rubbing it and fully rinse it off using water, then immediately seek medical attention. The specified battery pack should be used only on this device. Do not heat the battery pack, or do not break it up. That may cause a heat generation, catching fire, short circuit or explosion. Do not apply a pressure or mechanical shock to the specified battery pack. That may result in an expansion or explosion. Replace the specified battery pack with new one when the measurement time with this device is extremely short even after fully recharging.

After Measurement
After measurement, the device proceeds to the standby mode when the START/STOP button is pressed and held (Three seconds). The device will proceed to the standby mode automatically when no operation is made for a regular time. Remove the cuff and record the data.

Notes for Accurate Measurement
Let a patient sit down in a comfortable position. Confirm that a patient does not cross the legs, patient’s legs touch on the floor and patient’s back and arms are supported. Let a patient place the arm on a table with the palm facing upward and the cuff at the same level as patient’s heart.
Let a patient relax for about five to ten minutes before taking a measurement. If a patient is excited or depressed by emotional stress, the measurement will reflect this stress as a higher (or lower) than normal blood pressure reading and the pulse reading will usually be faster than normal.
An individual’s blood pressure varies constantly, depending on what a patient is doing and what a patient has eaten. What a patient drinks can have a very strong and rapid effect on patient’s blood pressure.
This device bases its measurements on the heartbeat. If a patient has a very weak or irregular heartbeat, the device may have difficulty determining patient’s blood pressure.
Should the device detect a condition that is abnormal, it will stop the measurement and display an error symbol. Refer to page 8 for the description of symbols.
The blood pressure measurement may be affected by cuff position, patient’s posture (standing, sitting or supine), exercise or physiological conditions.

The automatic blood pressure monitor’s performance may be affected by excessive temperature or humidity, or altitude.
