Part 4 How to use
Describes the basic names and functions of the product that users need to know, and provides
information for simple use.
Precautions when using
lUse within the ambient temperature 5°C~40°C and humidity 0%~95%.
lCheck the battery charge status.
lBe careful because it is easily damaged by impact.
lUse in consideration of ambient temperature and humidity, and store it away from dust and
flammable materials.
lCheck the appearance of the wristband blood pressure monitor.
lMake sure that there is no abnormality in the appearance of the charging cable.
Principle of operation
lThis product starts measuring by pressing the switch1.
lThe motor is operated fully automatically to calculate peak blood pressure and minimum blood
pressure by analyzing the waveform amplitude and cuff pressure, using the oscillometric method of
measuring pulsating phenomena, while pressing the cuff and winding the band.
Preparation before wearing
lCuff initialization
• Normal cuff condition
- Make sure the cuff air switch is in position C.
• Abnormal cuff condition
- Move the cuff air switch to C->O->C without wearing it to create a normal cuff condition.
Caution
If you press the
cuff air switch
while wearing it, the cuff will be in a shrunk
state and measurement errors may occur.
Caution If the air pressure is not normal, errors may occur in the measurement.
Caution
Transporting and storing at an alt
itude of more than 3,000 met
er
s or
temperature of 70°C may cause the cuff to fail if the cuff air switch is not
previously in position O.

lMeasurable wrist size
Measurable wrist of circumference size is 15.5cm~19.5cm as shown below.
lAdjust the height
Check the thickness number of the wrist with the measuring instrument and adjust the height
adjusting hole with the adjusting pin.
<wrist thickness instrument> <adjusting pin> <height adjusting hole>
lInsert cushion clip
Insert three cushion clips from the inside to align the gap created when adjusting the height.
<cushion clip>
Caution
When adjusting the height, give a space between the wrist and the product.
Otherwise, a measurement error will occur.
Caution
If you do not insert the cushion clip when adjusting the height, it may be
inconvenient to use.
How to wear
lPosition the cuff to the tip of the palm below the thumb, and align the end of the cuff with your
extended middle finger.

Warning
Please do not allow the product come into contact with water because
there is not waterproof function.
Caution
After measuring blood pressure, the band strap may not come out
completely. Pull it out if necessary.
Caution
Wear on a
wrist with a strong pulse on the radial artery for accurate
measurement.
Caution
Do not measure on
a
wrist where the radial artery is blocked.
Measurement errors may occur.
Caution
Blood pressure can differ between the right and left wrists, and readings
can be different. Charmcare Co.,Ltd. recommends always using the same
wrist when measuring blood pressure. Consult with your physician to
determine which wrist you for taking your measurements.
Caution If the cuff position is not correct, a measurement error will occur.
Accurate measurement posture
If the position of the wrist is different from the height of the heart, the blood pressure values
change due to the weight of the blood itself.
The figure shows that when the wrist position is higher than the heart, the blood pressure value is
lowered. The converse also applies. (There is a change of 8mmHg per 10cm.)
However, since the blood pressure value is also affected by the measurement posture, it does
not necessarily follow this exact value. Please refer to the correct measurement posture.
Lightly clench your fist, and hold your arm in a position where the blood pressure monitor is at the
same level as your heart.
Caution Do not speak or move while measuring.
Power
lPress switch1 for more than 2 seconds.

Caution If the band strap is loose, blood pressure measurement may not be possible.
Caution
If the cuff is not positioned over the radial artery, a blood pressure
measurement error may occur.
Caution During the measurement, you should not speak or move.
Caution
A single measurement does not provide an accurate
indication of your true
blood pressure. You need to take and record several readings over a period
of time.
Caution
Avoid bathing, drinking alcohol or caffeine, smoking, exercising and eating
for at least 30minutes before taking a blood pressure measurement.
Note
Pressing switch1 once automatically starts blood pressure measurement,
and pressing it again during measurement cancels the measurement.
