advice of a physician or medical professional.
• This device uses the oscillometric method to measure
systolic and diastolic blood pressure, as well as heart rate.
• Consider the electromagnetic compatibility of the device
(ex. power disturbance, radio frequency interference etc.)
Please use this device indoors only.
• 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, individuals with
irregular heartbeat, diabetes, poor circulation of blood,
kidney problems or for users who have suffered from
a stroke.
• Use blood pressure monitor only for its intended use.
• Do not wrap the cuff around body parts other than your wrist.

4
• 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.
• Do not use this device on infants, children, or those who
cannot express their own intention.
• The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency
of heart pacemakers.
• Electromagnetic interference: The device contains
sensitive electronic components. Avoid strong electrical or
electromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity of the device (e.g.
microwave ovens). These may lead to temporary impairment
of measurement accuracy.
• Not for use by or on persons under the age of 18.
• Use only 1.5v “AAA” alkaline batteries for power supply.
• Excessive use may result in blood flow interference, which
is likely to cause uncomfortable sensations, such as partial
subcutaneous hemorrhage, or temporary numbness to
your wrist. In general these symptoms should not last long.
However, if you do not recover in time, please seek advice
from a medical professional.
Blood pressure measurements determined with this device are
equivalent to those obtained by a trained observer using the
cuff/stethoscope auscultatory method, within the limits prescribed
by the American National Standard, Manual, electronic, or
automated sphygmomanometers.

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.
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.

6
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 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.
Category Systolic (mmHg) Diastolic (mmHg)
Normal Less than 120 and Less than 80
Prehypertension 120-139 or 80-89
High Blood Pressure
Stage 1 140-159 or 90-99
Stage 2 160 or higher or 100 or higher

HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE
MONITOR WORKS
This monitor uses innovative technology to detect your
blood pressure. 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. After taking your measurement, the cuff will
automatically deflate.
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.
The monitor automatically finds where your measurement
results fall on the NIH’s 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.

APPLYING THE CUFF
1. Remove all watches, wrist jewelry, etc.
prior to attaching the wrist monitor.
Clothing sleeves should be rolled up
and the cuff should be wrapped around
bare skin for correct measurements.
2. Apply cuff to left wrist with palm facing
up as shown in Fig. A.
3. Make sure the edge of the cuff is about
1/4”~1/2” (1 cm) from the palm as
shown in Fig. B.
4. In order to ensure accurate
measurements, fasten the hook and
loop strap securely around your wrist so
there is no extra space between the cuff
and the wrist. If the cuff is not wrapped
tight enough, the measurement values
will not be accurate.
5. If your physician has diagnosed you
with poor circulation in your left arm,
place the cuff around your right wrist as
shown in Fig. C.
Note:
• This device should not be used when your wrist is
wounded or injured.
• If it is not possible to use the cuff on your left wrist,
it can also be used on your right wrist. However, all
measurements should be made using the same wrist.

CORRECT MEASUREMENT POSTURE
1. Place your elbow on a table so that
the cuff is at the same level as your
heart as shown in Fig. A. Relax your
entire body, especially between
your elbow and fingers.
Note: Your heart is located slightly
below your armpit.
2. If the cuff is not at the same level
as your heart or if you cannot keep
your arm completely still throughout
the reading, use a soft object such
as a folded towel to support your
wrist as shown in Fig. B.
3. Turn your palm upwards.
4. Sit upright in a chair, and take 5-6
deep breaths.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
Important Notes:
• Position the monitor at the same level as your heart during
measurement to ensure accurate readings.
• Blood pressure changes with every heartbeat and is in
constant fluctuation throughout the day.
• Blood pressure measurement can be affected by the
position of the user, his or her physiologic condition and
other factors. For greatest accuracy, wait 1 hour after
exercising, bathing, eating, drinking beverages with alcohol
or caffeine, or smoking to measure blood pressure.
• Before a measurement, it is suggested that you sit quietly for
15 minutes as measurements taken during a relaxed state
will have greater accuracy. You should not be physically
tired or exhausted while taking a measurement.
• During the measurement, do not talk or move your arm or
hand muscles.
• See page 25 for additional notes regarding your blood
pressure measurement.
