IMPORTANT PRODUCT NOTICES AND
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using your blood pressure monitor, basic precautions should
always be followed. Please read and follow all instructions and warnings
before using this product. Save these instructions for future reference.
• This device uses the oscillometric method to measure systolic and
diastolic blood pressure, as well as heart rate.
• Please note that this is a home healthcare product only and it is not
intended to serve as a substitute for the advice of a physician or
medical professional.
• Not for use by or on persons under the age of 18.
• This device is only intended for use by those individuals with a wrist
circumference ranging from 5.3"-8.4" (13.5cm-21.5cm).
• DO NOT use this device for diagnosis or treatment of any health
problem or disease. Measurement results are for reference only.
Consult a healthcare professional for interpretation of blood pressure
measurements. Contact your physician if you have or suspect any
medical problem. Do not change your medications without the advice
of your physician or healthcare professional.
• This product is not suitable for people with arrhythmias.
• This device may have difficulty determining the proper blood pressure
for pregnant women and for individuals with irregular heartbeat,
diabetes, poor circulation of blood, kidney problems or for users who
have suffered from a stroke.
• Not suitable for people undergoing intravenous injection on any
limb, women who may be pregnant and those with preeclampsia.
• Those who have had mastectomy surgery (especially when
lymph nodes have been removed), it is recommended to take
measurements on the unaffected side.
• Excessive use may result in blood flow interference, which is likely
to cause uncomfortable sensations, such as partial subcutaneous

4
hemorrhage, or temporary numbness to your wrist. In general,
these symptoms should not last long. However, if symptoms persist,
please seek advice from a medical professional.
• When used along with other medical electronic equipment on the
same arm, pressurization of the cuff may cause the other devices
to temporarily malfunction.
• Consult your physician before measuring blood pressure at the wrist if
you have any of the following conditions: Severe hypertension, severe
diabetes, severe arteriosclerosis, severe kidney disease, or vascular
disease that may compromise circulation.
• The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of
heart pacemakers.
• Not suitable for use on patients with implanted electrical devices,
such as a cardiac pacemakers or defibrillators.
• Electromagnetic interference: The device contains sensitive
electronic components. Avoid strong electrical or electromagnetic
fields in the direct vicinity of the device (e.g. mobile telephones,
microwave ovens). These may lead to temporary impairment of
measurement accuracy.
• Consider the electromagnetic compatibility of the device
(ex. power disturbance, radio frequency interference, etc.)
• Please use this device in a home health care environment only.
• Use blood pressure monitor only for its intended use.
• DO NOT wrap the cuff around body parts other than your wrist.
• DO NOT use this device on infants, children, or those who cannot
express their own intention.
• Use only 1.5V “AAA” alkaline batteries for power supply.
Blood pressure measurements determined with this device are
equivalent to those obtained by a trained observer using the cuff/
stethoscope auscultatory method, within the accuracy limits prescribed
by the American National Standard, manual, electronic, or automated
sphygmomanometers. The sphygmomanometer was clinically
investigated according to the requirement of ISO 81060-2:2013.

ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE
What is Blood Pressure?
Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the artery walls while blood
flows through the arteries. The pressure measured when the heart
contracts and sends blood out of the heart is systolic (highest) blood
pressure. The pressure measured when the heart dilates with blood
flowing back into the heart is called diastolic (lowest) blood pressure.
Why Measure Your Blood Pressure?
Among today’s various health problems, those associated with high
blood pressure are very common. High blood pressure dangerously
correlates with cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, blood pressure
monitoring is important for identifying those at risk.
Why Do My Readings Vary?
Blood pressure is a body parameter that is subject to normal variations
throughout the day. A single reading that is different from yours or your
doctor’s readings are not necessarily inaccurate. The average of several
readings, taken under similar conditions, using the same arm is preferred
for accurate blood pressure readings.
Why Are My Readings Different Than Those Taken at My
Doctor’s Office?
Many experience a phenomenon called “White Coat Hypertension” when
measured by a doctor. White Coat Hypertension refers to blood pressure
that rises above its usual level when measured in a clinical setting, such
as a doctor’s office.

BLOOD PRESSURE STANDARD
This table contains defined levels for hypertension that are publicly
available from the American Heart Association®(AHA 2017). Users
can compare their own blood pressure readings against these defined
levels to determine if they may potentially be at an increased risk.
This table is applicable to most adults aged 18 and older.
Blood pressure tends to go up and down, even in people who
normally don’t have high readings. If your numbers stay above the
normal range most of the time, you may be at increased risk and
should consult your physician.
Although one can easily find where their own blood pressure readings
fall on this table, this monitor comes equipped with a Risk Category
Index that automatically compares each reading to the defined levels
and provides a helpful cue if your reading falls into one of the stages
that could potentially indicate increased risk. See page 21 for more
information on this feature.

Please note that cues provided by this monitor are only intended to
assist you in using the table on the previous page. The table and
cues are only provided for convenience to help you understand your
noninvasive blood pressure reading as it relates to the American
Heart Association®information. They are not a substitute for a medical
examination by your physician. It is important for you to consult with
your physician regularly. Your physician will tell you your normal
blood pressure range as well as the point at which you may actually
be considered to be at risk.
HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE
MONITOR WORKS
This monitor uses innovative GentleInflate™ technology to detect
your blood pressure. With one touch of a button, the monitor
automatically takes the reading during inflation, then deflates,
delivering a quick, comfortable and quiet measurement every time.
To help guide your wrist into the ideal position, this blood pressure
monitor comes equipped with an optional wrist positioning guide to
help you take an accurate blood pressure reading. Please see page
17 for more information on this feature.
Please note that any muscle movement during inflation will cause a
measurement error. When measurement is complete, the monitor will
display your systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse readings.
The monitor automatically finds where your measurement results fall on
the American Heart Association (AHA 2017) table and provides a cue if
your reading falls into one of the stages that could potentially indicate
increased risk. See page 21 for more information on this feature.
The appearance of the icon indicates that a pulse irregularity
consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected during measurement
Refer to page 22 for more information on the Irregular Heartbeat Detector.
