Measurement
The heart mark
will blink when pulse
is detected during
pressurization.
The pressure cuff
will be tightened
automatically.
The entire display
will light for approx.
1 second.
1 Press the On/Off and Start button on the main
unit.
(1) After the entire display on the wireless display
has been lit, the pressure cuff will be tightened
automatically.
() Pressurization will be performed automatically
and measurements will be taken.
* It may take about 1 second for the wireless display
to turn on after pressing the On/Off and the Start
button. This is not abnormal.
* The angle of the main unit may change slightly
while pressurizing. This will not affect accuracy.
2 When measurement has been completed, the
blood pressure and pulse values will be
displayed.
The cuff will loosen after the measurement
result has been shown for about 5 seconds.
The blood pressure indication ( mark) will flash
for 6 seconds then stay lit. If the measurement is
high, it will also flash for 6 seconds to indicate high
blood pressure. (See page .)
The mark will light. (For storing measurement
values, see page 4.)
The pulse rate value is the beats per minute
calculated based on the pulse rate during
measurement.
The mark is displayed when pulse rate could not
be measured.
3 Remove your arm from the main unit.
4 To switch off the blood pressure monitor, press
the On/Off and Start button on the main unit.
If you forget to switch it off, the blood pressure
monitor will switch off automatically after

Movement detection function
If movement is detected while measurement is being taken and more
pressure is applied by the pressure cuff, the mark will be displayed.
Please redo blood pressure measurement again if the mark flashes
or is lit.
If the arm to which the pressure cuff is attached is moved while
measurement is being taken (e.g. the elbow is bent suddenly), in some
cases correct measurements may not be obtained.
When movement has been detected during measurement, the
mark flashes when the blood pressure reading obtained during that
measurement is displayed.
(If this reading is saved, the mark will light whenever it is recalled.)
Movement Mark Explanation
Flashing
Movement has been detected.
· The elbow has been bent suddenly.
· The upper arm has been tensed.
· The arm has been moved, etc.
With correct posture, please take the measurement
again after measurement has been completed (see
page 16).
Lit
Movement has been detected that will significantly
affect the reading.
· Significant movement has been detected.
· Movement has been detected repeatedly.
· Significant arm movement has been detected, etc.
Please take the measurement again (a will
appear on the display).
* This function is designed to help you to take measurements accurately
(see page 33). Even if the Movement mark is not displayed, we
recommend that measurements be taken  times, with 5 minutes
between readings, in order to obtain an accurate reading (see pages 15–
18 for correct position).
