4 3 Basics of Blood Pressure Your heart acts like a pump, sending blood surging through your blood vessels each time it contracts. Blood pressure is the pressure exerted by blood pumped from the heart on the walls of blood vessels. Systolic pressure is the pressure exerted when the heart contracts and pumps blood into the arteries.
6 5 6. Try to take your blood pressure measurements at the same time and under the same conditions every day. • The ideal time to measure your blood pressure (to obtain your so- called “base blood pressure”) is in the morning just after waking up, before having breakfast and before any major activity or exercise.
8 7 Inserting/Replacing Batteries 1. Grasp the battery cover and remove it to the left as shown in Fig. 2-a. 2. Insert two 1.5 V alkaline (AAA/LR03) batteries, observing the (+) and (-) signs to ensure correct polarity. 3. Close the battery cover until it clicks into place (Fig.
10 9 3. Open and relax your hand with the palm facing up. Closing your hand will cause inaccurate readings. • Do not bend your wrist inward. Bending your wrist will cause inaccurate readings. 4 . Empty bladder, if possible, before taking blood pressure.
12 11 CAUTION: • For persons with poor circulation resulting from diabetes, liver disease, arteriosclerosis, high blood pressure or other conditions, there may be significant differences in blood pressure values measured at the wrist versus at the upper arm.
14 13 Recalling Stored Data 1. Press the Recall button (Fig. 13). The A will appear in the lower part of the display, and then the average value of all the stored data will be displayed (Fig. 14). • For example, if seven data (measurements) are stored in the memory, the average value of these seven data will be displayed.
16 15 About the Precise Logic™ Measurement System The blood flow (pulse wave) which influences blood pressure monitors varies according to the conditions of the blood vessels and the structure of the arm, making measurements by conventional methods difficult in some cases.
18 17 Symptom The systolic pressure value or diastolic pressure value is high. The systolic pressure value or diastolic pressure value is low. The measured values differ significantly. The measured value differs from that measured by the doctor. The measured value is different for each measurement.
