Cor1 Blood Pressure Monitor
SAFETY INFORMATION
The Cor1 BPM measures systolic and diastolic
blood pressure and pulse rate of an adult by
using a pressurized cuff on the left wrist. The
device is not intended for use on infants and
children. The device is designed for home
use only, and is not intended for ambulatory
measurement - measurement recorded
continuously throughout the day.
Bloodpressuremeasurements determinedwith
this device are equivalent to those obtained
by a trained observer using the American
National Standard, Manual, Electronic or
automated sphygmomanometers.
If you suffer from a disorder of heart rhythm
(arrhythmia), only use this blood pressure
monitor after consulting with your physician. In
certain oscillometric cases, this measurement
method may produce incorrect readings.
This Cor Measurement device is not intended
to be a diagnostic device. Contact your
physician immediately if pre-hypertensive or
hypertensive values are indicated.

CAUTION
• This device is not suitable for continuous
monitoring during medical emergencies or
operations.
• If the pressure of the cuff exceeds 40 kPa (300
mmHg), the device will automatically deflate.
Should the cuff not deflate when its pressure
exceeds 40 kPa (300 mmHg), detach the cuff from
the wrist and press START/STOP to stop inflation.
• Do not use the monitor under the conditions of
strong electromagnetic field (e.g. medical radio
frequency equipment) that radiates interference
signal or electrical fast transient/burst signal.
• The device is not AP/APG equipment. It is not
suitable for use in the presence of flammable
gases (avoid oxygen, nitrous oxide).
• Keep the unit out of reach of infants or children.
Inhalation or swallowing of the device’s small
pieces is dangerous or even fatal.
• Use only accessories and detachable parts
specified and authorized by the manufacturer.
Not doing so may cause damage to the unit or
danger to you.
CAUTION
Read this user manual thoroughly before use.
This device is designed and manufactured to
operate within defined design limits. Misuse
may result in harm. The following should be
observed to best use and maintain your
device:
• This device is intended for adult use only.
• This device is intended for non-invasive
measuring and monitoring of arterial blood
pressure. It is not intended for use on body
extremities other than the wrist.
• Its sole function is blood pressure and heart
rate measurement.
• Monitoring blood pressure with this device
does not equate to a medical diagnosis.
• This device allows you to monitor your blood
pressure under the care of a physician.
• If you are taking medication, consult with
your physician to determine the most
appropriate time for your measurement.
Never change a prescribed medication
without your physician’s consent.

MEASUREMENT TIPS
Following these additional tips when taking
a measurement to get a more accurate
reading. Measurement taking under any of
the following circumstances may result in
inaccurate readings.
POSITIONING THE CUFF
1. Remove your watch and/or jewelry from
your left hand. (If your physician has
diagnosed you with poor circulation in
your left wrist, use your right wrist.)
2. If applicable, roll or push up your sleeve
to expose your skin.
3. Wrap the cuff around your wrist, palm
facing up, and fasten.
4. Make sure the cuff is firmly against your
skin and aligned to the center. (If the cuff
is too loose, the measurement will not be
accurate.)
5. Sit comfortably on a
chair. The center of the
cuff should remain at
the same level as your
heart. Your legs should
be relaxed with your
feet falling outwards.
Don’t measure
immediately after
drinking tea, coffee
or smoking
Wait at least
1 hour to measure
after eating
or drinking
Don’t measure
while talking or
moving your hands
and ngers
Wait at least 20
minutes to measure
after bathing or
showering
Don’t measure
when you need
to use the
restroom
Don’t measure if
you are in a
very cold
environment

TAKING A MEASUREMENT
After correctly positioning the cuff, press
START/STOP button to turn on the monitor,
and it will complete the measurement
process.
Press START/STOP button to turn off the
monitor. Otherwise, the monitor will shut off
automatically within 1 minute.
RECALLING RECORDS
1. With the monitor off, press “MEM” button
to access the memory. The latest record
will be displayed first.
2. Use the “MEM” and “SET” buttons to
cycle through the records. The memory
holds a total of 60 records. The monitor
will shut off after 1minute of inactivity.
3. If there are no records saved in the
monitor, “---” will display on the screen.
Important
The most recent record is always shown first.
Each new measurement becomes the first
record. All other records are pushed back one
space (e.g., 2 becomes 3, and so on), and
the last record is dropped from the list when
more then 60 records have been saved.

SYSTOLIC & DIASTOLIC STANDARD BLOOD PRESSURE
What are systolic pressure and diastolic
blood pressure?
When ventricles contract and pump blood
out of the heart, the blood pressure reaches
its maximum value in the cycle, which is
called systolic pressure.
When the ventricles relax, the blood pressure
reaches its minimum value in the cycle,
which is called diastolic pressure.
The chart below shows the standard blood
pressure classifications as published by the
American Heart Association (AHA).
Caution
Please consult a physician if your measurement
results fall outside the normal range.

IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT DETECTOR FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
This Blood Pressure Monitor is equipped with
an Irregular Heartbeat (IHB) Detector. During
each measurement, it records your heartbeat
intervals and calculates the standard
deviation. If the calculated value is larger
than or equal to 15, IHB symbol will display on
the screen with the measurement result.
Caution
The appearance of the IHB icon indicates
that a pulse irregularity consistent with an
irregular heartbeat was detected during
measurement. Usually this is NOT a cause for
concern. If the symbol appears often, you
should seek medical advice. This device does
not replace a cardiac examination, but serves
to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.
Why does my blood pressure fluctuate?
There are multiple reasons behind fluctuations
in your readings, including the way you tie the
cuff on, the position in which you sit or level of
exercise and activity. Taking your readings at
the same time and in the same position every
day will help to reduce fluctuations.
Why is the reading I get at the doctor’s different ?
Blood pressure readings vary based on
conditions as described above. Simply being
in the hospital or the doctor’s office can raise
your blood pressure causing your reading to
be higher.
Does it matter which wrist I use?
You can take a measurement on either
wrist, though most medical professionals
normally want to take your pressure on
the left side. Whichever wrist you choose,
measure on it consistently as readings will
vary between wrists.
