Introduction
General Description
Thank you for choosing an a-rival product. The device features body function measurement, not for medical purposes, and the result
storage.
This manual contains important safety and care information, and provides step by step instructions for using the product.
Please do read this user manual carefully and thoroughly before use.
FEATURES:
Systolic Blood Pressure
Diastolic Blood Pressure
Pulse Rate
Memory: Up to 60 pieces of records
Measurement Principle
This product uses the Oscillometric Measuring Method to detect blood pressure. Before every measurement, the unit establishes a “zero
point” equivalent to the atmospheric pressure. Then it starts inflating the cuff. Meanwhile, the unit detects pressure oscillation generated by
beat-to-beat pulsatile, which is used to deter- mine the systolic pressure and diastolic pressure as well as pulse rate.
The device also compares the longest and the shortest intervals of detected pulse wave to with the average value, and then calculates the
standard deviation. The device will light up a warning symbol when the calculated standard deviation is larger than or equal to 15.

Indications for use
The a-rival HGBM01 is intended for use in measuring body functions of people with wrist circumference ranging from 13.5 cm to 21.5
cm (about 5-8.5 inches).
It is intended for home and indoor use and for adults only and not for diagnostic and/or therapeutic purposes.

This product is NOT a medical device! Pregnant women, pre-eclamptic people and people with severe obesity don’t use the device.
If you need, please consult professional doctor.
It is not intended for use on extremities other than the wrist or for functions other than obtaining an indication of the blood pressure.
Please use the device under specified environment by user manual, otherwise the accuracy of the device will be influenced
Do not confuse self-monitoring with self-diagnosis. Please start or end medical treatment basing solely on physician’s treatment
advice.
If you are taking medication, consult your physician to determine the most appropriate time for your measurement. Never change a
prescribed medication without your physician’s consent.
This unit is not suitable for continuous monitoring during medical emergencies. Otherwise, the wrist and fingers will become
anaesthetic, swollen, and even purple due to a lack of blood.
If the pressure of the cuff exceeds 40 kPa (300 mmHg), the unit will automatically deflate. If the cuff don’t deflate when its pressure
exceeds 40 kPa (300 mmHg), detach the cuff from the wrist and press the START/STOP button to stop inflation.
Do not use the device under the conditions of strong electromagnetic field that radiates interference signal or electrical fast transient/
burst signal.
The maximum temperature that the applied part can be achieved is 42.5 °C while the environmental temperature is 40°C
Please keep the unit out of reach of infants, children or pets, since inhalation or swallowing of small parts is dangerous or even fatal.
Be careful to strangulation due to cables and hoses, particularly due to excessive length.
The healthy adult is the intended operator. He obtains an indication of his blood pressure, can transmit data and charge battery
under normal circumstances and maintain the device to the user manual.
If you are allergic to dacron or plastic, please don’t use this device.
There is a PTC current limiter in the device, which specification is 8V and 0.5A. When the voltage and current exceed the limiting
value, the device will stop warning.
The device is not suitable for public use.
The adapter insulates the device from the main supply. Do not position the plug in a position where it is difficult to disconnect from
the supply mains.
