Fit the batteries paying attention to the positive + and negative ­ terminals. * If the blood pressure monitor is left unused for an extended period of time, the batteries should be removed from the compartment. 5 Close the battery compartment cover. Fit the lugs of the cover at the mating recesses of the battery compartment body and push the cover in the direction of the arrow. Fit the lugs (projections) at the recesses. - Eng 10 - HOW TO LOAD BATTERIES English 6 Re-attach the pocket.

English 1 2 Insert the AC adapter plug into the socket on the blood pressure monitor body. Insert the AC adapter into the receptacle for the power supply. AC adapter(Option) Ref. : AC-30CZ Input: AC100~40V~50/60Hz Output: DC6V 600mA * When the AC adapter is used for an extended period of time, the batteries should be removed. If the batteries are left in the compartment, electrolyte may leak, causing a failure of the blood pressure monitor. * When only the AC adapter is used for the power supply, the data stored in memory will be erased by pulling the AC adapter from the wall socket. Adequate tightness is obtained when you can place a finger between the cuff and your arm. When you put the arm cuff around your right arm You may measure your blood pressure on your right arm. Adjust the arm cuff position so that the air hose is located at the center of your right arm exactly as shown in the procedure for the left arm. However blood pressure reading may differ by about 10 mmHg between the right and left arms. It is recommended to use the same arm for measurement thereby ensuring a consistent reading. The air hose should be located at the center of your arm. - Eng 16 - HOW TO MEASURE YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE To get an accurate blood pressure measurement, you need to start by setting the pressure cuff on your arm to the correct starting pressure. The correct starting pressure level for you is your systolic blood pressure (the higher of your two blood pressure readings) plus 40 mmHg. You can select between "Auto" and "Manual" techniques for pressurizing the cuff. Select Auto if you are the only one using the unit, and select Manual if several people are sharing the unit with you. English For use by only one person: (See page 20 "Automatic Pressurizing mode") AUTO Sets the starting pressure automatically to your correct starting level, according to previous measurements. * When you use the unit the first time after replacing the batteries, the pressure will be set to 160 mmHg. For shared use by several people: You can change the pressure setting by pressing the (See page 22 "Manual Pressurizing mode") MANUAL until the desired level is reached. Set the pressure manually to your systolic blood pressure value (the higher of your two blood pressure readings) +40 mmHg. Then measure your blood pressure. In either Auto or Manual setting, you can measure your blood pressure by simply pressing one button. 1 Wrap the arm cuff tightly around your arm. ( See page 15 "HOW TO WRAP THE ARM CUFF". ) - Eng 17 - HOW TO MEASURE YOU BLOOD PRESSURE 2 3 Insert the air hose plug into the case of the unit. Sit in the recommended position. ( See page 14 "POINTS FOR ACCURATE MEASUREMENTS". ) 4 Measure your blood pressure. Press or shared. For personal use: Use "AUTO" to measure your blood pressure. ( "Automatic Pressurizing mode". ) For shared use by several people: Use "MANUAL" to measure your blood pressure. ( See page "Manual Pressurizing mode". ) · If you want to cancel measuring during use, press cuff will be released and the power will be turned off. [. . . ] * This step will permanently clear all data from memory and after that you cannot be recall the data.
