[. . . ] In no case may you change the dosage of medication prescribed by your physician. · In operation for blood pressure measurement, you should urinate and should remain relatively still for 10 to 15 minutes prior to measurement. · Exercise, eating and drinking, smoking, etc. , prior to measurement may affect the results. · The blood pressure varies constantly throughout the day. [. . . ] · Do NOT measure blood pressure immediately after drinking coffee or tea or smoking. - Eng 3 - · Measure blood pressure with a relaxed and quiet posture. Keep the center of the cuff at the level of your heart, and do NOT move your arm or talk during measurement. · Do NOT keep on measuring so many times, as your arm will have built up congestion of blood, and you will not get a valid reading. PRECAUTION FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE Precautions for use · If you suffer from heart disease, high blood pressure or other circulatory disease, please consult your doctor first. · If you feel abnormal pressure of the cuff during use or any other irregularity, reduce the pressure by immediately switching off the power or removing the batteries and consult the sales outlet where purchased. · If you think the measured value is abnormal or if measuring makes you feel unwell, discontinue use and consult your doctor. · Measurement of blood pressure may not be possible for someone with a weak pulse or arrhythmia. · If blood pressure is measured repeatedly, an accurate result will not be achieved. An interval of about 10 minutes should be allowed. · The memory is erased if the batteries are removed for replacement, etc. and a record should be kept of any necessary data. Precautions for maintenance · Do NOT store the blood pressure monitor where it will be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperature (over 60°C), low temperature (below ­20°C), high relative humidity (over 95%) or in a dusty place. · Do NOT expose the blood pressure monitor to under force or vibration, or drop it. · Remove the battery/batteries when not in use for a long period. · Do NOT disassemble the apparatus. · Do NOT bend the cuff or air hose unnecessarily. · NEVER wipe the blood pressure monitor with thinner or benzene, as they may damage it. · When the monitor is very dirty, wipe it clean with a cloth moistened with Sterilizing alcohol or a neutral detergent, and then wipe it with a dry cloth. Do NOT use thinner or benzene. Nature and frequency of maintenance: This products is designed for use over an extended period of time; however, it is generally recommended that it be inspected every two years to ensure proper function and performance. - Eng 4 - Protect the nature environment: Please help protect natural environment by respecting national and/or local recycling regulations when disposing of the batteries and the products at the end of their useful lives.

Inserting hoses Bulb hose Cuff hose Take off the battery cover at the back of the unit by sliding it as shown. Install a 9V battery (6F22, 6LR61) taking care for the polarity. [. . . ] Pressurize the cuff SYSTOLIC mmHg DIASTOLIC mmHg (Value of the pulse is not memorized nor displayed. ) Memory function works on for approximately 2 seconds or during power switch is depressed. SYSTOLIC mmHg DIASTOLIC mmHg Next the Exhaust symbol "w" will be displayed. PULSE/min Pressurize the cuff by pumping the bulb until you have a reading of approximately 30 to 40 mmHg PULSE/min higher than your regular systolic blood pressure. Note: At pressure of 140, 170, 200, 240mmHg, the buzzer beeps 2 times. - Eng 7 - When pressurization is completed, the automatic air-release system will gradually reduce cuff pressure, and Measuring PULSE/min Mark "Q" will appear on the display indication that measurement is in progress. SYSTOLIC mmHg DIASTOLIC mmHg 4. Press the exhaust button SYSTOLIC mmHg DIASTOLIC mmHg Press the exhaust button to completely release the air within the cuff. PULSE/min Flashing SYSTOLIC mmHg DIASTOLIC mmHg PULSE/min When a pulse is detected, the pressure value moves to the right side of the display. At this time Measuring Mark "Q" flashes with a short beep at the same rate as pulse rate. 5. [. . . ]
