• 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.
• This device uses the oscillometric method to measure systolic and
diastolic blood pressure, as well as heart rate.
• 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.
• Not suitable for people undergoing intravenous injection on any limb
and for those with pre-eclampsia.
• Those who have had a 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
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.
• 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.
• 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.
• Not for use by or on persons under the age of 18.
• 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.

BLOOD PRESSURE STANDARD
The table below 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.
Please note that any muscle movement during inflation 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 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. See page 21 for more information
on this feature.
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

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.

The appearance of the icon indicates that a pulse
irregularity consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected during
measurement. Refer to page 21 for more information on the Irregular
Heartbeat Detector.
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 20 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 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.
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. See page 20 for more information
on this feature.

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 with feet flat on the
floor, and take 5-6 deep breaths.
Avoid leaning back while the

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
Notes:
• 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.
Before Measurement
To help ensure an accurate reading, follow these instructions before
taking a measurement:
• Wait 1 hour after exercising, bathing, eating, drinking beverages with
alcohol or caffeine, or smoking to measure blood pressure.
• Sit quietly and rest for 15 minutes.
• Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during
stressful times.
• Take your reading in a comfortable environment as measurements
can be affected by hot or cold temperatures. Take your blood
pressure at normal body temperature.
During Measurement
• Do not talk or move your arm or hand muscles.
• Do not cross your legs. Sit with feet flat on the floor.
• Dot not touch cuff or monitor during measurement.

RISK CATEGORY INDEX
This monitor comes equipped with a Risk Category Index that
automatically compares each reading to defined levels established
by the U.S. National Institutes of Health’s (NIH) National Heart
Lung and Blood Institute as described earlier in this manual, and
provides a helpful cue if your reading falls into one of the stages
that could potentially indicate increased risk. No cue is given if
the reading falls in the normal range as defined by NIH. 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.

IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT DETECTOR (IHB)
The appearance of the icon
indicates that a pulse irregularity
consistent with an irregular
heartbeat was detected during
measurement. Usually this is not
a cause for concern. However,
if the symbol appears often, we
recommend you seek medical
advice. Please note that the
device does not replace a cardiac
examination, but serves to detect
pulse irregularities at an early stage.
Movement, shaking or talking during the measurement can result
in pulse irregularities that may cause the appearance of this icon.
Therefore, it is of great importance to not move or talk during
measurement.
To determine the presence of an irregular heartbeat, the average of
the heartbeat intervals is calculated with the first 3 normal effective
heartbeat values. It is important to note that the average is not a
strict mathematical averaging of all recorded intervals. At least 3
beats with 25% or greater difference from the average heartbeat
interval will generate the icon on the screen.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
This blood pressure monitor is not designed for use by people with
arrhythmias nor for diagnosing or treating an arrhythmia problem.
As a safeguard, we recommend that if you have arrhythmias such
as atrial or ventricular premature beats and atrial fibrillation or any
other special conditions you should check with your physician before
using your blood pressure monitor.
