Using The Monitor

Installing / Changing The Battery

1. Remove the battery cover.

2. Insert a new battery into the

battery compartment as shown,

taking care that the polarities (+)

and (-) are correct.

Use only R6P, LR6, AA or

equivalent battery.

3. Close the battery cover.

CAUTION

Insert the battery as shown in the battery compartment. If not, the device

will not work.

When

(LOW BATTERY mark)

blinks in the display, replace with a new

battery.

(LOW BATTERY mark)

does not appear when the battery is drained.

Battery life varies with the ambient temperature and may be shorter at

low temperatures.

Remove the battery if the device is not to be used for a long time.

The battery may leak and cause a malfunction.

Use the specified battery only. The battery provided with the device is for

testing monitor performance and may have a limited life.

Selecting The Correct Cuff

Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading. If the cuff is not

the proper size, the reading may yield an incorrect blood pressure value.

The arm size is printed on each cuff.

The index and proper fit range, on the cuff, tell you if you are attaching the

correct cuff. (Refer to "Attaching The Arm Cuff" on the next page)

If the index points outside of the range, contact your local dealer to purchase a

replacement cuff.

Using The Monitor

Attaching The Arm Cuff

1. Wrap the cuff around the upper arm,

about 2 - 3 cm above the elbow, as

shown. Place the cuff directly against

the skin, as clothing may cause a faint

pulse and result in a measurement error.

2. Constriction of the upper arm, caused

by rolling up a shirtsleeve, may prevent

accurate readings.

3. Confirm that the index points within

the proper fit range.

How To Take Proper Measurements

For the most accurate blood

pressure measurement:

Sit comfortably at a table.

Rest your arm on the table.

Relax for about five to ten minutes before measurement.

Place the center of the cuff at the same height as your heart.

Remain still and keep quiet during measurement.

Do not measure right after physical exercise or a bath. Rest for twenty or

thirty minutes before taking the measurement.

Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time every day.

Measurement

During measurement, it is normal for the cuff to feel very tight.

Measure your blood pressure according to the section "Measurements".

After Measurement

Press the exhaust valve to exhaust air from the cuff.

Press the START button to turn off the power after the measurement.

Remove the cuff and record your data.

Note: The device has an automatic power shut-off function, which turns off the

power automatically one minute after measurement.

Allow at least three minutes between measurements on the same person.

Measurement

1. Place the cuff on the arm (preferably the left arm).

2. Press the

START button.

When the START button is pressed, all of the

display symbols will display for about one second.

When the " 0 " is flashing, the device is ready for

measurement. If the mark is displayed, the cuff

has some air trapped in it. Press the exhaust

valve button until the mark is displayed.

3. Pressurize the cuff by squeezing the rubber bulb.

The figure on the left of the

display shows the current

pressure as you inflate the cuff.

Stop squeezing the rubber bulb

when the mark disappears.

4. When pressurization is completed,

the automatic exhaust mechanism

will gradually reduce the pressure

in the cuff and the mark will

display along with the current

pressure reading on the left.

Remain still during the

measurement. When a pulse is

detected, the mark will flash

in unison with the pulse of the

person being monitored.

5. When the measurement is

complete, the mark is displayed.

The systolic pressure is displayed

on the left. The diastolic is

displayed on the right. The pulse

rate alternates with the systolic and

diastolic displays.

START button

Stop squeezing the bulb

when the mark

disappears.

Measurement

6. Press the exhaust valve button to completely release

air from the cuff.

When a measurement is made with insufficient

pressure, the mark will be displayed. Re-

pressurize the cuff to a pressure. Stop squeezing

the rubber bulb when the mark disappears.

When a measurement is made with an erratic pulse

or in a very noisy environment, will display.

7. Turning the power off

Press the START button to turn the power off.

The device will be in standby mode.

8. Subsequent measurements

If a subsequent measurement is required, turn off the power and turn it on

again. When "0 " is displayed, the device is ready for another measurement.

Note: Allow at least three minutes between measurements on the same person.

9. Automatic power-off function

If the device is left on after a measurement, it will turn off automatically

after about one minute. It may be turned off at any time by pressing the

START button.

Notes For Proper Measurement

Sit down in a comfortable position. Place the arm to be used for the

measurement on a table or other support so that the center of the cuff will

be at the same height as your heart.

Relax for about five or ten minutes before taking a measurement. If you

are 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.

Your blood pressure varies constantly, depending on what you are doing

and what you have eaten. What you drink can have a very strong and

rapid effect on your blood pressure.

Measurement

This device bases its measurements on the heartbeat. If you have a very

weak or irregular heartbeat, the device may have difficulty determining

your blood pressure.

Should the device detect a condition that is abnormal, it will stop the

measurement and display an error symbol. Refer to page 4 for the

descriptions of the symbols.

This blood pressure device is intended for use by adults only. Consult

with your physician before using this device on a child. A child should not

use this device unattended.

What Is An Irregular Heartbeat?

Model UA-704 blood pressure monitor provides a blood pressure and

pulse rate measurement even when an irregular heartbeat occurs. An

irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that varies by 25% from the

average of all heartbeats during the blood pressure measurement. It is

important that you are relaxed, remain still and do not talk during

measurements.

Note: We recommend contacting your physician if you see this indicator

frequently.

About Blood Pressure

What Is Blood Pressure?

Blood pressure is the force exerted by blood against the walls of the

arteries. Systolic pressure occurs when the heart contracts. Diastolic

pressure occurs when the heart expands. Blood pressure is measured in

millimeters of mercury (mmHg). One's natural blood pressure is

represented by the fundamental pressure, which is measured first thing in

the morning while one is still at rest and before eating.

What Is Hypertension And How Is It Controlled?

Hypertension, an abnormally high arterial blood pressure, if left

unattended, can cause many health problems including stroke and heart

attack. Hypertension can be controlled by altering lifestyle, avoiding stress,

and with medication under a doctor’s supervision.

To prevent hypertension or to keep it under control:

Do not smoke Exercise regularly

Reduce salt and fat intake Have regular physical checkups

Maintain proper weight
