Notes on Safety
Please observe the following safety notes
Self-diagnosis of measured results and treatment is dangerous.
Please follow the instructions of your doctor.
Self-diagnosis may worsen the disease.
Diabetes, hyperlipemia, or hypertension may lead to arterial sclerosis. If
the conditions are not checked, there is an increased danger of cerebral
apoplexy or myocardial infarction, or arteriarctia or peripheral circulatory
disturbances. In such cases, wrist and brachial blood pressure may
differ greatly. (Even for the healthy person, there may be a difference of
20 mmHg if the measuring conditions are not appropriate. Therefore, do
not diagnose the measured results by yourself. Consult your doctor and
ask for his/her instruction.)
The difference between wrist and brachial blood pressure values may be
due to physiological conditions at the time of measurement. However,
blood pressures measured at the wrist and those at the brachium (upper
arm) fluctuate in the same manner. Therefore, you can also check
fluctuation tendency by measuring blood pressure at your wrist.
Do not use with infant or person who cannot express one's
intention.
This may lead to accident or trouble.
Caution

May lead to accident or trouble.
Do not use portable phones near this monitor.
The monitor may operate erroneously.
Do not disassemble or modify the main
unit or the wrist cuff of the blood
pressure monitor.
Correct measurement will be impossible.
