Remove the batteries when operating the unit with AC adapter for extended period of time.
Take deep breaths and relax.
Do not move, chat or strain your arm or hand during measurement.
1Insert TUBE PLUG 11 into AIR CONNECTOR 5 .
2Press ON/OFF BUTTON 2 .
Beep sounds and the monitor automatically starts inflation.
Stopping Measurement
Press ON/OFF BUTTON 2 and the monitor will stop inflation, discharge air rapidly, and then turn off.
Do not take repeated measurements.

CORRECT MEASURING POSTURE | see fig.2 | page 4 | |
| |||
Sit at the table and let the table support your arm as you take the blood pressure measurement.
Make sure that the measurement location on the upper arm is at approximately the same height as the heart, and that the forearm is extended naturally on the table and does not move.
You may lie on your back and take the measurement. Look at the ceiling, stay calm, and do not move your neck or body during the measurement. Again, make sure that the measurement location on the arm is at approximately the same height as the heart.
WRAPPING THE CUFF | see fig.3 | page 4 |
|
| |
|
|
|
1 | With the tube of the cuff positioned in the direction of the fingertips, place it on your |
| left arm. |
| Wrap the cuff around the arm with the edge of the cuff approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) |

The inflation stops as beep sounds and the displayed value (pressure) decreases.
The pulse is indicated by heart mark " 
" with synchronizing beep.
Long beep sounds as the measurement completes and maximum and minimum blood pressures and pulse rate are displayed.
Deflation mark appears and the unit automatically exhausts the air from the cuff.
3Press either one of MEMORY BUTTONs, M1 3 or M2 4 , and the result is stored in the selected bank.
The selected memory bank number is shown on the display. The result is stored in the bank which is selected when the unit is turned off. When a measurement resulted in an error, it will not be stored.
4Press ON/OFF BUTTON to turn off the power.
If you forget to turn off the unit, it will be automatically turned off after 3 minutes.
blood can be forced into tissues beyond the cuff, which would result in incorrect measurements. Let your arm rest for at least 5 minutes.
Automatic Repressurization
If the pressure applied is judged insufficient in the early phase of measurement or if movement of arm or hand occurs during measurement, the unit will inflate again to a level about 40 mmHg higher. Automatic Repressurization is repeated until a measurement is made. However, this does not indicate a problem.
To manually control pressurization, hold down ON/OFF BUTTON immediately after the start of inflation and release it when the pressure reaches the level 50 mmHg higher than the expected maximum systolic pressure. If the pressure value has exceeded 180 mmHg, the inflation will stop when the key is released. Pressure can be increased to approximately 300 mmHg.
above the elbow. |
3 Press the surface of the cuff to make sure that it is attached securely. |
When wrapping the cuff, wrap it loosely enough around the arm so that two fingers can be placed between the cuff and the arm. If the cuff is wrapped more tightly or loosely than this, inaccurate blood pressure readings may result.
If you are wearing a shirt that might restrict circulation in your upper arm or you roll your sleeve up over the upper arm, the blood flow will be restricted, preventing accurate measurement.
MEMORY FUNCTIONS | see fig.5 | page 6 |
|
|
Measured result is stored in either M1 or M2. Each of two memory banks can hold up to 30 results and their average. When the number of measurements exceeds 30, the oldest data will be deleted to record new data. You may decide which bank to store your measurement results to avoid data mixture with someone else's, or may use two banks to save data measured in the morning and evening separately.
Recalling measured data
1 Press MEMORY BUTTON M1 3 or M2 4 to see stored data.
