*Note᧝
Blood pressure naturally varies from time to time throughout the
day and is also aected by many dierent factors such as smoking,
alcohol consumption, medication and physical activity. Normally
the blood pressure rises while at work and is at its lowest during
sleeping period..

Important reminders
Knowing your device

Applying the cuff
Irregular Heartbeat Detector (IHB)
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 usually dened 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 recommend 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.
This device is equipped with WHO Blood Pressure Indicator which
classies your blood pressure measurements into six stages
(Optimal to Severe hypertension) based on WHO classication on
blood pressure levels as shown in below chart:
After each measurement is completed, the LCD display will show
your position automatically on the six segments of the bar
indicator which corresponds to WHO Blood Pressure Indicator.
*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 pressure as well as your pulse rate. It’s
recommended for use by people over the age of 18 and not
to be used on children.
*The device is designed for home use and not suitable for
clinical use.
*Note᧝
No Irregular Heartbeat Detector measurement will be stored in memory.
The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart
pacemarkers. If a certain pulse irregularity is detected during
measurement often, we recommend you seek medical advice.
The device is safe and accurate to use with pulse irregularities. However,
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. It's aimed only for the
reference on pulse variations/tendency of healthy people.
Therefore, the average of heart beat intervals is calculated with the rst
3 normal eective heart beat values, and is used for the evaluation base
of irregular heart beat.
At least 3 beats with at least 25% dierence from the average heart
beat interval will generate the IHB icon on the screen.
*Note᧝
Do not use this device if your wrist has any wound or injury.
Do not wrap the cu around any body part other than your wrist.
Wrap the cu snugly. Do not make it
too tight.
Fold the remaining part of the cu back
out of the way.
Leave approximately 10 mm
(Approx. 0.4 inch) between the cu
and the bottom of your hand palm.
Do not take a measurement in a low (less than 50 ˚F/10 ˚C)
or high (more than 104 ˚F/40 ˚C) temperature or
you may get the inaccurate readings.
Wait 30 ~ 45 minutes before measurement if
you’ve just consumed caeinated beverages or
smoked cigarettes.
Rest at least 5 ~ 10 minutes before taking
a measurement.
Relax at least 3 ~ 5 minutes in between measurements.
We recommend you using the same wrist (preferably the left wrist)
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.
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.
Do not move or shake the device during a measurement.
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 healthcare professional
before using the device.
This product is not suitable for people with arrhythmias.
Blood pressure measurements taken with this device are equivalent to
those obtained by a trained observer using the cu / stethoscope
auscultation method and are within the accuracy limits prescribed by
the American National Standard for Electronic or Automated
Sphygmomanometers.
