Output plug polarity : Center Negative
Output plug shape : External diameter 5.5ø±0.1 mm
:Internal diameter 2.1ø±0.1 mm
: Length 9.5±0.3 mm
An approved adapter is the RadioShack PN 273-1761, with
adaptaplug "M" PN 273-1716.
Remove the batteries when operating the
unit with AC adapter for extended period
of time.
When batteries are removed or AC adapter is
unplugged, the clock returns to the default
value.
INSTALLING BATTERIES AND SETTING THE CLOCK
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.
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)
above the elbow.
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.

Take deep breaths and relax.
Do not move, chat or strain your arm or hand
during measurement.
Insert TUBE PLUG
into AIR CONNECTOR
.
Press ON/OFF BUTTON
.
Beep sounds and the monitor automatically starts inflation.
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.
Press either one of MEMORY BUTTONs,
M1
or M2
, 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.
Press 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.
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
Press MEMORY BUTTON M1
or M2
to see stored data.

Stopping Measurement
Press ON/OFF BUTTON
and the
monitor will stop inflation, discharge
air rapidly, and then turn off.
Do not take repeated measurements.
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.
