4.	 Press	the	Off/On	Start	button.The display will be lit up for approx. 
2 seconds.  
The cuff will begin to inflate automatically.
As measurements are being taken 
during pressurization, operating sounds 
and the rate of pressurization may 
change. This is perfectly normal.
The pulse detection mark will be displayed 
graphically during pressurization when the 
pulse is detected.

	Measuring	Your	Blood	Pressure	(cont.)
Trend	Graph	FunctionThis blood pressure monitor can display previous measurement 
results in a graph to allow you to see the trend in your blood pressure. 
Measurements taken in the morning are displayed as a graph in stored 
morning data; measurements taken in the evening as a graph in stored 
evening data; and measurements taken at other times as a graph in stored 
data for all time periods. 
(Measurements taken in the morning are measurements taken...

	Movement	Detection	Function
If movement is detected while measurement is being carried out and more 
pressure is applied by the pressure cuff, the  mark will be displayed.
Please carry out blood pressure measurement again if the 
 mark 
flashes or is lit.
If the hand or wrist to which the pressure cuff is attached is moved while 
measurement is being carried out (e.g. wrist is bent suddenly), in some 
cases correct measurements may not be obtained.
When movement has been detected during...

	Irregular	Pulse	Function
If the pulse rate varies by more than ±25 % from the average while a 
measurement is being taken, when measurement is completed the  
mark will be displayed. The 
 mark will lit after approximately 6 seconds of blinking when the 
measurement is completed.
If the 
 mark is lit, please take the measurement again.
In some cases, if the pulse rate fluctuates greatly while a measurement 
is being taken, it may be impossible to obtain an accurate reading.
If you save a...

When	an	Error	Occurs	During	Measurement
A  will appear on the display to indicate that 
measurement was unsuccessful and should be performed 
again.
Before performing another measurement, always press the Off/On 
Start button to turn off the unit and make sure to allow a rest period of 
4 to 5 minutes before starting again.
Advice:
In general, blood pressure measurements are lower on the second 
attempt because you are calmer.
For people who easily get tense, measuring twice each time is...

	Comparing	AM	and	PM	Average	Blood	Pressure
Average AM and PM systolic and diastolic blood pressures are displayed 
in order to allow you to compare readings from both time periods.
Use of the AM and PM average blood pressure comparison function can 
aid in the detection of a blood pressure pattern known as “early morning 
surge” in which blood pressure rises rapidly in the morning.
These can only be compared when year, date and time have set up.
These can be compared after readings have been...
