ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE

What is Blood Pressure?

Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the

artery walls while blood flows through the arteries.

The pressure measured when the heart contracts

and sends blood out of the heart is systolic

(highest) blood pressure. The pressure measured

when the heart dilates with blood flowing back into

the heart is called diastolic (lowest) blood pressure.

Why Measure Your Blood Pressure?

Among today’s various health problems, those

associated with high blood pressure are very

common. High blood pressure dangerously

correlates with cardiovascular diseases. Therefore,

blood pressure monitoring is important for

identifying those at risk.

BLOOD PRESSURE STANDARD

The table on page 6 is criteria for hypertension that

is publicly available from the National Heart Lung

and Blood Institute at the U.S. National Institutes

of Health (NIH) (http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/

dci/Diseases/Hbp/HBP_WhatIs.html). Users can

compare their own blood pressure readings against

these established criteria to determine if they may

be potentially at increased risk.

This table is applicable to most adults aged 18 and

older. Blood pressure tends to go up and down,

even in people who normally don’t have high

readings. If your numbers stay above the “normal”

range most of the time, you may be at increased

risk and should consult your physician.

Although one can easily find where their own blood

pressure readings fall on this table, this monitor

comes equipped with a Risk Category Index that

automatically compares each reading to this criteria

and provides a helpful cue if your reading falls into

one of the stages that could potentially indicate

increased risk. See page 17 for more information

on this feature.

Please note that cues provided by this monitor are

only intended to assist you in using this table. The

table and cues are only provided for convenience

to have access to the NIH information. They are

not a substitute for a medical examination by your

physician. It is important for you to consult with

your physician regularly. Your physician will tell

you your normal blood pressure range as well as

the point at which you may actually be considered

to be at risk.

Category Systolic (mmHg) Diastolic (mmHg)

Normal Less than 120 and Less than 80

Prehypertension 120-139 or 80-89

High Blood Pressure

Stage 1 140-159 or 90-99

Stage 2 160 or higher or 100 or higher

HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE

MONITOR WORKS

This monitor uses innovative technology to detect

your blood pressure. This technology enables

the monitor to automatically inflate and deflate at

the appropriate level for each individual. With one

touch of a button, the cuff will automatically inflate

to block the blood flow through your artery. Next,

the deflation process starts. Please note that any

muscle movement during inflation or deflation will

cause measurement error. When measurement

is complete, the monitor will display your systolic

pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse readings.

The monitor automatically finds where your

measurement results fall on the NIH’s National

Heart Lung and Blood Institute’s table and provides

a cue if your reading falls into one of the stages that

could potentially indicate increased risk. Please

refer to page 17 for more information on this

feature.

1. Remove all watches,

wrist jewelry, etc. prior to

attaching the wrist monitor.

Clothing sleeves should

be rolled up and the cuff

should be wrapped around

bare skin for correct

measurements.

2. Apply cuff to left wrist with

palm facing up as shown in

Fig. A.

3. Make sure the edge

of the cuff is about 1/4”~1/2”

(1 cm) from the palm as

shown in Fig. B.

4. In order to insure accurate

measurements, fasten

the hook and loop strap

securely around your wrist

so there is no extra space

between the cuff and the

wrist as shown in Fig. C. If

the cuff is not wrapped tight

enough, the measurement

values will not be accurate.

5. If your physician has

diagnosed you with poor

circulation in your left arm,

place the cuff around your

right wrist as shown in Fig. D.

APPLYING THE CUFF CORRECT MEASUREMENT

POSTURE

1. Place your elbow on a table

so that the cuff is at the same

level as your heart as shown

in Fig. A.

Relax your entire body,

especially between your

elbow and fingers.

Note: Your heart is

located slightly

below your armpit.

2. If the cuff is not at the same

level as your heart or if

you cannot keep your arm

completely still throughout

the reading, use a soft object

such as a folded towel to

support your arm as shown

in Fig. B.

3. Turn your palm upwards.

4. Sit upright in a chair, and

take 5-6 deep breaths.

Avoid leaning back while the

measurement is being taken

as shown in Fig. C.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

Important Notes:

• Position the monitor at the same level as your

heart during measurement to ensure accurate

readings.

• Blood pressure changes with every heartbeat

and is in constant fluctuation throughout the day.

• Blood pressure measurement can be

affected by the position of the user, his or her

physiologic condition and other factors. For

greatest accuracy, wait 1 hour after exercising,

bathing, eating, drinking beverages with

alcohol or caffeine, or smoking to measure

blood pressure.

• Before measurement, it is suggested that you

sit quietly for 15 minutes as measurements

taken during a relaxed state will have greater

accuracy. You should not be physically tired or

exhausted while taking a measurement.

• During the measurement, do not talk or move

your arm or hand muscles.

• See page 20 for additional notes regarding

your blood pressure measurement

If you are using this blood pressure

monitor for the first time, please remove the

protective film from the screen.

1. With the cuff wrapped around your wrist,

press the START/STOP button. Do not

inflate the cuff unless it is wrapped around

your wrist. All digits will light up, checking the

display functions. The checking procedure

will be completed after about 2 seconds.

2. After all symbols disappear, the display will

show a blinking “0”. The monitor is “Ready to

Measure” and will automatically inflate the

cuff to begin measurement. The cuff will then

begin deflating as measurement continues.

Note: The monitor will re-inflate automatically

if the system detects that your

body requires more pressure for

measurement.

reading falls into one of the stages that could

potentially indicate increased risk. No cue is

shown if the reading falls in the normal range as

defined by NIH. Please note that cues provided

by this monitor are only intended to assist you

in using this table. The table and cues are only

provided for convenience to have access to the

NIH information. They are not a substitute for

a medical examination by your physician. It is

important for you to consult with your physician

regularly. Your physician will tell you your

normal blood pressure range as well as the point

at which you may actually be considered to be

at risk.

RECALLING VALUES FROM

MEMORY

1. Press the MEMORY button to access the

memory.

3. When the measurement is completed, the

cuff will deflate entirely and systolic pressure,

diastolic pressure and pulse will be shown

simultaneously on the LCD screen. The

measurement is then automatically stored

into memory.

Note:

1. This monitor automatically turns off

approximately 1 minute after last

operation. You may also press the START/

STOP button to turn the unit off.

2. To interrupt the measurement, you may press

the START/STOP button (recommended) or

the Memory, or Date/Time Set ( ) buttons.

The cuff will deflate immediately after a button

is pressed.

RISK CATEGORY INDEX

This monitor comes equipped with a Risk

Category Index that automatically compares

each reading to criteria established by the U.S.

National Institute of Health’s (NIH) National Heart

Lung and Blood Institute as described earlier in

this manual, and provides a helpful cue if your
