Welcome Message
Congratulations on purchasing a state-of-the-art A&D blood pressure monitor,
one of the most advanced monitors available today. Designed for ease of use
and accuracy, this monitor will facilitate your daily blood pressure regimen.
We recommend that you read through this manual carefully before
using the device for the first time.
Preliminary Remarks
The device is designed for use on adults only, not newborns or infants.
This device 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 cuff 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 cuff.
Avoid tightly folding the cuff or storing the hose tightly twisted for long
periods of time as such treatment may shorten the life of the components.
The device and cuff are not water resistant. Prevent rain, sweat and
water from soiling the device and cuff.
Measurements may be distorted if the device is used close to televisions,
microwave ovens, cellular telephones, X-ray or other devices with strong
electrical fields.
When reusing the device, confirm that the device is clean.
Used equipment, parts and batteries are not treated as ordinary
household waste, and must be disposed of according to the applicable
local regulations.
Environment for use. The device is for use in the home healthcare
environment.

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 cuff hard
enough to temporarily stop blood flow 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.
People who have a severe circulatory deficit in the arm must consult a
doctor before using the device to avoid medical problems.
Do not self-diagnose the measurement results.
Always consult your doctor for evaluation of the results and treatment.
Do not apply cuff on an arm with other medical equipment attached.
Neither equipment may function properly.
Do not apply the cuff on an arm with an unhealed wound.
Do not apply the cuff on an arm receiving an intravenous drip or blood
transfusion. It may cause injury or accidents.
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. It may cause a fire
or explosion.
Do not excessively bend or squeeze the air hose.
English 3
When the AC adapter is used, make sure that the AC adapter can be
readily removed from the electrical outlet when necessary.
Do not twist the cuff hose. This may cause injury due to continuous cuff
pressure.
Measuring blood pressure too frequently may cause harm due to blood flow
interference. Check that 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.
Take care to avoid accidental strangulation with babies or infants by the hose.
Please note the accidental ingestion of small parts.

Using the Monitor
Selecting the Correct Cuff Size
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 applying the
correct cuff. (Refer to "Symbols that are printed on the cuff" on the next page)
If the index points outside of the range, contact your local dealer to purchase a
replacement cuff.
The arm cuff is a consumable. If it becomes worn, purchase a new one.
Arm size: The circumference at the biceps.
Note: Model UA-767F is not designed for using a small cuff.
Applying the Arm Cuff
1. Wrap the cuff around the upper arm,
about 1-2 cm above the inside of 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 tightly rolling up a
shirtsleeve, may prevent accurate
readings.
3. Confirm that the index points
within the proper fit range.
Do not roll up shirtsleeve tightly.

Measurements
Measurement with the Desired Systolic Pressure
Model UA-767F is designed to detect the pulse and to inflate the cuff to a
systolic pressure level automatically.
Use this method when re-inflation occurs repeatedly or when the results are not
displayed even if the pressure decreases to 20 mmHg or less.
1. Place the cuff on the arm at heart level
(preferably the left arm).
2. Press and hold the STARTbutton until a
number about 30 to 40 mmHg higher than
your expected systolic pressure appears.
3. When the desired number is reached,
release the START button to start
measurement. Continue to measure your
blood pressure as described on the
previous page.
Notes for Accurate Measurement
Sit down in a comfortable position. Place your arm on a table with your
palm facing upward and the cuff at the same level as your heart.
Relax for about five to 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.
An individual's 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.
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 6 for the
description of symbols.
This blood pressure monitor 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
The UA-767F 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.
％IHB
%IHB is displayed as frequency of IHB detected.
IHB can detect not only noises such as physical movement but also an
irregular heartbeat. Therefore, we recommend contacting your physician
if %IHB level is high.
Display of %IHB: %IHB is displayed when displaying average values.
(Refer to “2. Recalling the Data” in “Operation Mode”)
%IHB is not displayed when the memory number is
six or less.

Pressure Bar Indicator
The indicator monitors the progress of pressure during measurement.
Pressure Rating Indicator
The Pressure Rating Indicator™ is a feature,
which provides a snapshot of your blood
pressure classification based on your
measurements. This will let you quickly know
what your blood pressure readings mean.
Each segment of the bar indicator corresponds
to the Seventh Report of the Joint National
Committee (JNC7) on Prevention, Evaluation
and Treatment of High Blood Pressure from
the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute -
May 2003.
NOTE: Due to other risk factors (e.g. diabetes,
obesity, smoking, etc.) in addition to your
blood pressure measurement, the
Pressure Rating Indicator is approximate. Please consult with your
physician for interpretation and diagnosis of your blood pressure
measurements.
