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.

NOTE: Even if the monitor is not in the ideal position after 10 seconds, the

measurement will still begin. If this occurs, the wrist symbol

will appear and be

stored in the memory with the measurement.

NOTE: Due to the differences in individual sizes and physique, this feature may

not be helpful in all cases and you may wish to turn this feature OFF. If you feel the

suggested wrist position does not match your heart level, please turn this feature

OFF and consult your health care provider.

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 0.4″ (10mm) 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 as shown in Fig. C. 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. D.

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. If the cuff does not stop inflating, unwrap the cuff at

once.

CORRECT MEASUREMENT POSTURE

It is extremely important that the cuff be at the same height as the

heart. Having the cuff higher or lower may cause inaccurate results.

1. Place your elbow on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as

your heart as shown in Fig. 1. 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. 2.

3. Turn your palm upwards.

4. Sit upright in a chair, and take 5–6 deep breaths.

NOTE: Avoid leaning back while the measurement is being taken as

shown in Fig. 3.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

NOTE:

• 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.

Before Measurement:

To help ensure an accurate reading, follow these instructions before taking a

measurement:

• Wait 30 minutes after exercising, bathing, eating, drinking beverages with

alcohol or caffeine, or smoking to measure blood pressure.

• Sit quietly and rest for 5 minutes.

• Empty your bladder, as a full one can temporarily raise blood pressure.

• 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.

• DO NOT touch cuff or monitor

during measurement.

ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE

What is blood pressure?

Blood pressure is the measurement of the force 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?

Having one's blood pressure measured by a doctor in a hospital or a clinic is often

associated with an event called “White Coat Hypertension” where the patient

becomes nervous or anxious, thus raising the blood pressure. There are also

numerous other factors that might cause your blood pressure to be raised at a

specific time of day. This is why medical physicians recommend home monitoring

as it is important to get readings of blood pressure during different times of the day

to really get an idea of your real blood pressure.

BLOOD PRESSURE STANDARD

The table below contains defined levels for hypertension that are publicly available

from the American Heart Association

®

(AHA 2017).

Users can compare their own blood pressure readings against these defined levels

to determine if they may be potentially at increased risk.

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 Indicator 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 Risk Category

Index section for more information on this feature.

HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR WORKS

This monitor uses SmartMeasure® inflation technology to detect your blood

pressure. With one touch of the start/stop button, the monitor will turn on and

the inflation will automatically start, creating pressure around the arteries inside

the wrist. Within the cuff is a gauge which senses the fluctuations (oscillations) in

pressure. The fluctuation measured represents the degree of intensity that your

arteries are contracting with each heartbeat, which is also a result of the pressure

that the cuff has placed on the wrist. The monitor measures these contractions and

converts the information to a digital value. Once the measurement is complete,

the cuff will automatically deflate, and the result is displayed on the screen.

To help guide your wrist into the ideal position, this blood pressure monitor

comes equipped with an optional wrist positioning guide to help you take an

accurate blood pressure reading. Please see wrist position guide section for more

information on this feature. 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 American Heart

Association

®

(AHA 2017) table and provides a cue if your reading falls into one

of the stages that could potentially indicate increased risk. Please see the Risk

Category Index section for more information on this feature. The appearance

of the icon indicates that a pulse irregularly consistent with an irregular

heartbeat was detected during measurement. Refer to Irregular Heartbeat

Detector section for more information on this feature.
