UA-651CNBLE
Instruction Manual

Greetings
This A&D blood pressure monitor is one of the most advanced
monitors available and is designed for ease of use and accuracy. This
device will facilitate your daily blood pressure regimen. We recommend
that you read through this manual carefully before using the device
for the rst time. The Bluetooth®word mark and logos are registered
trademarks owned by Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any use of such marks
by A&D Medical is under license. Other trademarks and trade names
are those of their respective owners.
Intended Use
• The monitor is designed for use on adults only. Do not use on
newborns or infants.
• Environment for use: This monitor is intended for home healthcare
environment.
• This monitor is designed to measure blood pressure and pulse rate
of people for diagnosis.
Precautions
• Precision components are used in the construction of this device.
Extremes in temperature, humidity, direct sunlight, shock or dust
should be avoided.
•Clean the device and cu󰀨 with a dry, soft cloth or a cloth dampened
with water and a neutral detergent. Never use alcohol, benzene,
thinner or other harsh chemicals to clean the device or cu󰀨.
•Avoid tightly folding the cu󰀨 or storing the hose tightly twisted for long
periods, as such treatment may shorten the life of the components.
•The monitor and cu󰀨 are not water resistant. Prevent rain, sweat and
water from soiling the monitor and cu󰀨.
• Measurements may be distorted if the device is used close to
televisions, microwave ovens, cellular telephones, X-ray or other
devices with strong electrical elds.
•When using the device, conrm that the device is clean.

Precautions
• Used equipment, parts and batteries are not treated as ordinary
household waste, and must be disposed of according to the
applicable local regulations.
• When the AC adapter is used, make sure that the AC adapter can
be readily removed from the electrical outlet when necessary.
• Do not modify the device. It may cause accidents or damage to the
device.
•To measure blood pressure, the arm must be squeezed by the cu󰀨
hard enough to temporarily stop blood ow through the artery. This
may cause pain, numbness or a temporary red mark to the arm.
This condition will appear especially when measurement is repeated
successively. Any pain, numbness, or red marks will disappear
with time.
• Take care to avoid accidental strangulation of babies or infants with
the hose and cable.
• Do not twist the air hose during measurement. This may cause
injury due to continuous cu󰀨 pressure.
• Wireless communication devices, such as home networking
devices, mobile phones, cordless phones and their base stations,
walkie-talkies can a󰀨ect this blood pressure monitor. Therefore, a
minimum distance of 30 cm (12") should be kept from such devices.
• Measuring blood pressure too frequently may cause harm due to
blood ow interference. Check that the operation of the device does
not result in prolonged impairment of blood circulation, when using
the device repeatedly.
• If you have had a mastectomy, please consult a doctor before using
the device.
• Do not let children use the monitor by themselves and do not use
the monitor in a place within the reach of infants. It may cause
accidents or damage.
• There are small parts that may cause a choking hazard if swallowed
by mistake by infants.

Precautions
•Do not apply the cu󰀨 on an arm in which another medical device is
attached. The equipment may not function properly.
•People who have a severe circulatory decit in the arm must consult
a doctor before using the device, to avoid medical problems.
• Do not self-diagnose the measurement results and start treatment
by yourself. Always consult your doctor for evaluation of the results
and treatment.
•Do not apply the cu󰀨 on an arm with an unhealed wound.
•Do not apply the cu󰀨 on an arm receiving an intravenous drip or
blood transfusion. It may cause injury.
•Do not use the monitor where ammable gases such as anesthetic
gases are present. It may cause an explosion.
• Do not use the monitor in highly concentrated oxygen environments,
such as a high-pressure oxygen chamber or an oxygen tent. It may
cause a re or explosion.
• This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules and contains the
FCC ID VPYLBCA2HN2AH. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operations.
• This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS
standard(s) and contains IC 772C-LBCA2HN2AH. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference,
including interference that may cause undesired operation of the
device.
• Unplug the AC adapter when not in use during the measurement.
•Use of accessories not detailed in this manual may compromise safety.
• Should the battery short-circuit, it may become hot and potentially
cause burns.
• Allow the monitor to adapt to the surrounding environment before
use (about one hour).

• Clinical testing has not been conducted on newborn infants and
pregnant woman. Do not use on newborn infants or pregnant woman.
• Do not touch the batteries, the DC jack, and the patient at the same
time. That may result in electrical shock.
•Do not inate without wrapping the cu󰀨 around the upper arm.

Using the Monitor
Installing/Changing the batteries
1. Remove the battery cover.
2. Remove the used batteries from
the battery compartment when
changing them.
3. Insert new batteries or replace
used batteries as shown, taking
care that the polarities (+) and (-)
are correct.
4. Replace the battery cover. Use only R6P, LR6 or AA batteries.
CAUTION
• Insert the batteries as shown in the battery compartment. If installed
incorrectly, the device will not work.
• When (blinks on the display and the device indicates that the
battery needs to be replaced, replace all batteries with new ones.
Do not mix old and new batteries. It may shorten the battery life, or
cause the device to malfunction. Replace the batteries two seconds
or more after the device turns o󰀨.
• If does not appear, then the batteries are completely drained.
• The battery life varies with the ambient temperature and may be
shorter at low temperatures. Generally, four new LR6 batteries will
last approximately for one year when used twice for measurement
each day.
•Use the specied batteries only. The batteries provided with the
device are for testing the device performance and may have a limited
life.
• Remove the batteries if the device is not to be used for a long time.
The batteries may leak and cause a malfunction.
