• 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 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.
• Proper cuff size is critical for accurate measurements. Follow
the instructions in this manual and printed on the arm cuff to
ensure the appropriate size of cuff is being used.

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.
BLOOD PRESSURE STANDARD
The table on page 6 contains defined levels for hypertension that
are publicly available from the National Heart Lung and Blood
Institute at the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH)
(http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/dci/Diseases/Hbp/HBP_WhatIs.html). Users
can compare their own blood pressure readings against these
defined levels to determine if they may be potentially at increased
risk.
Thistableisapplicabletomostadultsaged18andolder.
Category Systolic (mmHg) Diastolic (mmHg)
Normal Lessthan120 and Lessthan80
Prehypertension 120-139 or 80-89
High Blood Pressure

Stage2 160orhigher or 100orhigher

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24formoreinformationonthisfeature.
Please note that cues provided by this monitor are only
intended to assist you in using this table. The table and cues
are only provided for convenience to help you understand your
non-invasivebloodpressurereadingasitrelatestotheNIH
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 technology to detect your systolic
pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse. This technology enables
the monitor to automatically inflate and deflate at the appropriate
level for each individual. With one touch of a button, the cuff will
automatically inflate to block the blood flow through your artery.
Next, the deflation process starts. Please note that any muscle
movement during inflation or deflation will cause measurement
error. When measurement is complete, the monitor will display
your systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse readings.
Beforemeasurement,itissuggestedthatyousitquietlyfor15
minutes before measurement as measurements taken in a relaxed
state have greater accuracy. The Rest Assure function provides
ahelpfulcountdownofthelast5minutesofthissuggestedtime.
Refertopage14formoreinformationonthisfeature.
The Triple Check Measurement System automatically takes and
averages three readings for accuracy you can trust. Refer to page
14formoreinformationonthisfeature.
The monitor automatically finds where your measurement results
fall on the NIH’s National Heart Lung and Blood Institute’s table
and provides a cue if your reading falls into one of the stages that
couldpotentiallyindicateincreasedrisk.Pleaserefertopage24
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25formoreinformationonthe
