ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE
1. What is blood pressure?
Blood pressure is the measurement of the force of blood pushing against the walls of the
arteries. Arterial blood pressure is constantly uctuating during the course of the cardiac
cycle. The highest pressure in the cycle is called the systolic blood pressure, and rep-
resents the pressure in the artery when the heart is beating. The lowest pressure is the
diastolic blood pressure, and represents the pressure in the artery when the heart is at
rest. Both the systolic and the diastolic pressure are necessary for a physician to evaluate
the status of a patient’s blood pressure.
Many factors such as physical activity, anxiety or the time of day, can inuence your blood
pressure. Blood pressure is typically low in the mornings and increases from the afternoon
to the evening. It is on average lower in the summer and higher in the winter.
2. Why is it useful to measure blood pressure at home?
Having one’s blood pressure measured by a doctor in a hospital or a clinic, is often asso-
ciated with a phenomenon called “White Coat Hypertension” where the patient becomes
nervous or anxious, thus raising his blood pressure. There are also numerous other factors
that might cause your blood pressure to be raised at a specic time of day. This is why
medical practitioners recommend home monitoring as it is important to get readings of
blood pressure during different times of the day to really get an idea of your real blood
pressure.
Medical practitioners generally recommend the “Rule of 3”, where you are encouraged to
take your blood pressure three times in a row (at 3-5 minutes interval), three times a day
for three days. After three days you can average all the results and this will give you an
accurate idea of what your blood pressure really is.
A. WHO blood pressure classications:
Standards for assessment of high or
low blood pressure without regard to
age, have been established by the
World Health Organization (WHO), as
shown in the chart.
However this chart is not exact for
classication of blood pressure and
it’s intended to be used as a guide
in understanding non-invasive blood
pressure measurements.
Please consult with your physician for proper diagnosis.

23 ENGLISH
B. Variations in blood pressure:
Individual blood pressures vary great-
ly both on a daily and a seasonal ba-
sis.
These variations are even more pro-
nounced in hyper tense patients.
Normally the blood pressure rises
while at work and is at its lowest dur-
ing sleeping period.
(hyper tense: means a person who
has high blood pressure symptom.)
The graph below illustrated the variations in blood pressure over a whole day with meas-
urement taken every ve minutes.
The thick line represents sleep. The rise in blood pressure at 4 PM (A in the graph) and 12
PM (B in the graph) correspond to an attack of pain.
PRECAUTIONS
* Do not use this manual and product as a substitute for advice, diagnosing or treating
a health problem or prescribing any medication by your doctor. If you have a medical
problem, promptly consult your healthcare provider.
* Read the Instruction Manual thoroughly before measuring and keep it at hand for your
reference at any time.
* This device uses the oscillometric method to measure systolic and diastolic blood pres-
sure as well as your heart rate. It’s recommended for use by people over the age of 18
and not to be used on infant or children.
* The device is designed for home use and not suitable for clinical use.
• Do not take a measurement in a low (less than 41°F/5°C) and high (more than 104°F/
40°C) temperature, nor in a place outside humidity ranges (15% ~ 93% R.H.), and at-
mospheric pressure ranges (700 ~ 1060 hPa) or you may get inaccurate readings.
• Wait 30 ~ 45 minutes before measurement if you’ve just consumed caffeinated beverag-
es or smoked cigarettes.
• Rest at least 5 ~ 10 minutes before taking a measurement.
• To allow your blood vessels to return to the condition prior to taking the measurement,
please wait at least 3 ~ 5 minutes in between measurements. You may need to adjust
the wait time according to your personal physiological situation.
• We recommend you using the same arm (preferably the left arm) and measuring around
the same time each day.
• Sit down comfortably and place your elbow on the table with your feet at on the oor.
Please do not cross your legs during measurements.
• Keep the device at heart level. Relax your hand with the palm facing up.
• Perform measurements in a quiet and relaxed environment at room temperature.

24
• Do not move or shake the device during a measurement. Please keep quite and do not
talk at the same time.
• Keep in mind that blood pressure naturally varies from time to time throughout the day
and is affected by lots of different factors such as stress, eating, smoking, alcohol con-
sumption, medication, and physical activity, etc.
Normally the blood pressure rises while at work and is at its lowest during sleeping
period.
• Blood pressure measurements should be interpreted by a physician or a trained health
professional who is familiar with your medical history. Using the unit and recording the
results regularly for your physician to interpret, you will keep your physician informed of
the continuing changes in your blood pressure.
• If you have one of the circulatory problems as arteriosclerosis, diabetes, liver disease,
kidney disease, severe hypertension, peripheral circulation.., please consult your health-
care professional before using the device.
• This product is not suitable for people with arrhythmias and pregnant women.
• Blood pressure measurements taken with this device are equivalent to those obtained
by a trained observer using the cuff / stethoscope auscultation method and are within
the accuracy limits prescribed by the Standard of EN 1060-4.
Attention!
1. Do not use the device on infants, children, or those who cannot express their own
intention.
2. The device is equipped with sensitive electronic components. While measuring, avoid
strong electrical or electromagnetic elds, e.g. mobile phones, microwave ovens, etc;
or it may lead to temporary reading error or inaccuracy.
3. To avoid accidental strangulation, keep this product away from children and do not
drape tube around neck.
4. Over high frequency measurements may result in blood ow interference, which is like-
ly to cause uncomfortable sensations, such as partial subcutaneous hemorrhage, or
temporary numbness to your arm. In general, these symptoms should not last long.
However, if you do not recover in time, please seek your medical practitioners for help.

FEATURES
Irregular Heartbeat Detector
The symbol will appear on screen indicating a certain heartbeat irregularity
was detected during measurement.
The heartbeat rhythm that is more than or less than 25% from the average rhythm is usu-
ally dened as an irregular heartbeat rhythm.
Talking, moving, shaking or an irregular pulse during the measurement can result in the
appearance of this symbol.
Usually this is not a cause for concern, however if the symbol appears often, we recom-
mend you seek medical advice.
And please note that the device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to
detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.
*Note!
• The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart pacemakers.
If a certain pulse irregularity is detected during measurement often, we recommend you
seek medical advice
• As a safeguard, we recommend that if you have arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular
premature beats and atrial brillation or any other special conditions you should check
with your physician before using your device.
• The IHB function is not designed for use by people with arrhythmias nor for diagnosing
or treating an arrhythmic problem. In order to lter the unstable status of user and avoid
affecting the detection of heart rate from any movement, shaking or talking in the begin-
ning of measurement, the method of averaging heart beat intervals of subject device is
calculated with the three proper heart beat pulses detected in the beginning of measure-
ment and that is different from a strict mathematical averaging of all recorded intervals.
• At least 3 beats with at least 25% difference from the average heart beat interval will
generate the IHB icon on the screen.

Risk Category Indicator
This device is equipped with Risk Category Indicator which classies your blood pressure
measurements into six stages (Optimal to Severe hypertension) as shown in below chart:
Stages of Blood Systolic Diastolic Color Recommendations by SIGN n. 49:

priate for the reduced minimum sepa-
ration distance. Minimum separation
distances for higher IMMUNITY TEST
LEVELS shall be calculated using the
following equation:
E = 6/d
where Pis the maximum power in W, d
is the minimum separation distance in
m, and Eis the IMMUNITY TEST LEV-
ELS in V/m.
Field strengths from xed RF transmit-
ters, as determined by an electromag-
netic site survey,a should be less than
the compliance level in each frequency
range.b
Interference may occur
in the vicinity of equip-
ment marked with the
following symbol:
NOTA 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by
absorption and reection from structures, objects and people.
a. Field strengths from xed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones
and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be
predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to xed RF
transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured eld strength in
the location in which the device is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the device
should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional meas-
ures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the device.
b. Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, eld strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

NOTE: If necessary to achieve the IMMUNITY TEST LEVEL, the distance between the transmitting
antenna and the ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM may be reduced to 1 m, the 1 m test distance is
permitted by IEC 61000-4-3.
a). The carrier shall be modulated using a 50% duty cycle square wave signal.
b). AS an alternative to FM modulation, 50% pulse modulation at 18 Hz may be used because while it
does not represent actual modulation, it would be worst case.
