Dear Customers

Congratulations on purchasing a state-of-the-art A&D blood pressure monitor,

one of the most advanced monitors available today. Designed for ease of use

and accuracy, this monitor will facilitate your daily blood pressure regimen.

We recommend that you read through this manual carefully before

using the device for the first time.

Preliminary Remarks

This device conforms to the European Directive 93/42 EEC for Medical

Products. This is made evident by the mark of conformity.

(0366: The reference number to the involved notified body)

The device is designed for use on adults only, not newborns or infants.

Environment for use

The device is for use indoors.

Precautions

Precision components are used in the construction of this device. Extremes in

temperature, humidity, direct sunlight, shock or dust should be avoided.

Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. Never use thinner, alcohol, benzine, or a

wet cloth.

Avoid tightly folding the cuff or storing the hose tightly twisted for long periods,

as such treatment may shorten the life of the components.

The device and cuff are not water-resistant. Prevent rain, sweat and water from

soiling the device and cuff.

Measurements may be distorted if the device is used close to televisions,

microwave ovens, cellular telephones, X-ray or other devices with strong

electrical fields.

Used equipment, parts and batteries are not treated as ordinary household

waste, and must be disposed of according to the applicable local regulations.

Using The Monitor

Installing / Changing The Batteries

1. Remove the battery cover.

2. Insert a new battery into the battery

compartment as shown, taking care that

the polarities (+) and (-) are correct.

Use only R6P, LR6, AA or equivalent battery.

3. Close the battery cover.

CAUTION

Insert the battery as shown in the battery compartment. If not, the device will

not work.

When

(LOW BATTERY mark)

blinks in the display, replace the battery with a

new one.

(LOW BATTERY mark)

does not appear when the battery is drained.

Battery life varies with the ambient temperature and may be shorter at low

temperatures.

Use the specified battery only. The battery provided with the device is for

testing monitor performance and may have a limited life.

Remove the battery if the device is not to be used for a long time.

The battery may leak and cause a malfunction.

The stored data are cleared when the batteries are removed.

Connecting The Air Hose

Insert the air connector plug into

the air socket firmly.

Selecting The Correct Cuff

Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading. If the cuff is not

the proper size, the reading may yield an incorrect blood pressure value.

The arm size is printed on each cuff.

The index and proper fit range, on the cuff, tell you if you are attaching the

correct cuff. (Refer to "Attaching The Arm Cuff" on next page)

If the index points outside of the range, contact your local dealer to purchase a

replacement cuff.

Using The Monitor

Attaching The Arm Cuff

1. Wrap the cuff around the upper arm,

about 2 - 3 cm above the elbow, as

shown. Place the cuff directly against

the skin, as clothing may cause a faint

pulse and result in a measurement

error.

2. Constriction of the upper arm, caused

by rolling up a shirtsleeve, may prevent

accurate readings.

3. Confirm that the index points within

the proper fit range.

How To Take Proper Measurements

For the most accurate blood pressure

measurement:

Sit comfortably at a table.

Rest your arm on the table.

Relax for about five to ten minutes

before measurement.

Place the center of the cuff at the same height as your heart.

Remain still and keep quiet during measurement.

Do not measure right after physical exercise or a bath. Rest for twenty or

thirty minutes before taking the measurement.

Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time every day.

Measurement (Operation)

During measurement, it is normal for the cuff to feel very tight.

Select a measurement mode (operation of the device).

Normal measurement with storing data : ..................................... Press the START button.

Recalling data : ......................................... Press and hold the START button to recall data.

Clearing data : ........................................................................Remove the battery and re-install it.

After Measurement

After the measurement is completed, remove the cuff and record your data,

then press the START button to turn off the power.

Note: The device is an automatic power shut-off function, which turns the power

off approximately one minute after measurement.

Allow at least three minutes between measurements on the same person.

Measurements

Measurement With Storing Data

1. Place the cuff on the arm (preferably the left

arm).

Sit quietly during measurement.

2. Press the

START button.

The buzzer sounds and the average

blood pressures and the WHO

classification and last data number are

displayed briefly.

When the " 0 " is flashing, the device is

ready for measurement. If the mark is

displayed, the cuff has some air trapped

in it. Press the exhaust valve button until

the mark is displayed.

3. Pressurize the cuff by squeezing the rubber

bulb.

A pressure bar indicator and the current

pressure are displayed.

Stop squeezing the rubber bulb when the

mark disappears.

Note: If you want to stop inflation at any time,

stop squeezing the rubber bulb and

press the exhaust valve button to expel

the air from the cuff.

4. When inflation is complete, deflation starts

automatically and the buzzer sounds and

the (heart mark) blinks, indicating that

the measurement is in progress. Once the

pulse is detected, the mark flashes and

the buzzer sounds with each pulse beat.

5. When the measurement is complete,

the buzzer sounds and the mark is

displayed. The systolic and diastolic

pressure readings and pulse rate are

displayed and stored.

6. Press the exhaust valve button to

completely release air from the cuff.

When a measurement is made with

insufficient pressure, the mark will

be displayed. Re-pressurize the cuff.

Stop squeezing the rubber bulb when

the mark disappears.

English 8

When a measurement is made with an

erratic pulse or in a very noisy

environment, will display.

7. Turning the power off

Press the

START button to turn the power off.

The device will be in standby mode.

8. Subsequent measurements

If a subsequent measurement is required, turn off the power and turn it on

again. When "0 " is displayed, the device is ready for another measurement.

Note: Allow at least three minutes between measurements on the same

person.

9. Automatic power-off function

If the device is left on after a measurement, it will turn off automatically

after about one minute. It may be turned off at any time by pressing the

START button.

Notes For Proper Measurement

Sit down in a comfortable position. Place the arm to be used for the

measurement on a table or other support so that the center of the cuff will be

at the same height as your heart.

Relax for about five or ten minutes before taking a measurement. If you are

excited or depressed by emotional stress, the measurement will reflect this

stress as a higher (or lower) than normal blood pressure reading and the

pulse reading will usually be faster than normal.

Your blood pressure varies constantly, depending on what you are doing and

what you have eaten. What you drink can have a very strong and rapid effect

on your blood pressure.

This device bases its measurements on the heartbeat. If you have a very

weak or irregular heartbeat, the device may have difficulty determining your

blood pressure.

Should the device detect a condition that is abnormal, it will stop the

measurement and display an error symbol. Refer to page 4 for the

descriptions of the symbols.

This blood pressure device is intended for use by adults only. Consult with

your physician before using this device on a child. A child should not use this

device unattended.

Example:

Operation Mode

Measurement with storing data ( Refer to page 7)

Press the

START button. Blood pressure is measured and data is stored

pressure classification described on the next page.

Pressure Bar Indicator

The indicator monitors the

progress of pressure during

measurement.

The indicator displays a segment,

based on the current data,

corresponding to the WHO

classification.
