charging and overheating. Exercise caution when using them. It is recommended that
you purchase a Huawei power adapter from an ocial Huawei sales outlet.
•Keep the charging port dry and clean to prevent short circuits or other risks.
•The charging cradle tends to attract metal objects due to it being magnetic. Therefore,

Blood Pressure Management
Blood pressure measurement results are dierent
each time
•Blood pressure varies depending on the time period of the measurement.
Blood pressure uctuates throughout the day.
To correctly manage blood pressure, it is recommended that you measure your blood
pressure at the same time every day.
•Blood pressure uctuates in the following situations:
· Within 1 hour after meal
· After going to the toilet
· After drinking alcohol and caeine
· Not being quiet during the measurement
· After smoking
· Feeling stressed
· After bathing
· The environment being too cold or hot, or changing drastically
· After exercise
•Measurement results can be aected if long-time measurements cause blood stasis.
During the measurement, the wrist is pressed by the airbag, which may result in the blood
ow to your ngertips slowing down and cause blood stasis. In this case, take o your
watch, raise your arm high, and repeatedly make a st and open it for about 15 times.
The blood pressure measured at home is dierent
from that measured at the hospital
•If the blood pressure measured at home is lower than that measured at the hospital,
the possible causes are as follows:
•You feel more stressed at the hospital, resulting in the blood pressure higher than
it should be.
You have greater peace of mind and your body is more relaxed at home, sometimes
resulting in the blood pressure lower than that measured at the hospital.
•The measurement results will be lower if the measurement position is above the
heart.
The measurement results may be lower if your wrist is above your heart during the
measurement.
•If the blood pressure measured at home is higher than that measured at the hospital,
the possible causes are as follows: 10

•If you are taking antihypertensive drugs, your blood pressure will rise after the
drug eects wear o.
The eects of the antihypertensive drugs will wear o after you take the drugs for a few
hours. Then, your blood pressure will rise. Consult a doctor for details.
•The measured values may also be higher when the watch isn't worn tight.
If the watch is too loose on your wrist, the pressure cannot reach the blood vessels,
resulting in the measurement results being higher than expected.
•An incorrect measurement posture may also result in higher measurement results.
Higher measurement results may also result from sitting cross-legged, on a low sofa or
in front of a low table, or other postures exerting pressure on your abdomen, or placing
the watch below the heart.
Measuring blood pressure
The blood pressure measurement feature helps you better manage your health.
•This product can be used as a reference in clinical practice, but the measurement
results cannot serve as the basis for diagnosis.
•If you feel uncomfortable during a measurement due to the airbag inating excessively
or other reasons, stop the measurement immediately to deate the airbag or unfasten
the strap.
•To prevent injuring your arm, do not keep your arm in the device for a long time when
it is inated.
Precautions
•If you feel uncomfortable during a measurement due to the airbag inating excessively or
other reasons, stop the measurement immediately to deate the airbag or unfasten the
strap.
•Unfasten your strap if the ination pressure increases to more than 300 mmHg (40 kPa)
but does not deate automatically.
•To ensure the accuracy of measurement results, comply with the following requirements:
•The airbag and strap sizes are suitable, you are wearing the device correctly, and your
posture during the measurement is correct. For details, see the Wearing Guide .
•Measure your blood pressure during the same time period each day. Measurement
results may vary depending on the time of day.
•After smoking, drinking alcohol, coee, or black tea, bathing, or doing exercise, wait at
least 30 minutes before measuring.
•After going to the toilet, wait 10 minutes before measuring.
•Do not measure within one hour after eating a meal.
•Do not measure in a place where the temperature is too low or too high or the
environment changes dramatically.
