Before Taking A Measurement
1.Avoid eating,drinking alcohol, smoking, exercising and bathing for
30 minutes before taking a measurement.
2.Stress raises blood pressure.Avoid taking measurements during
stressful times.
3.The cuff can be applied to your left or right wrist.Always measure
your blood pressure on the same wrist.
4.Measurements should be taken in a quiet place.
5.Position the unit at heart level throughout the measurement.
6.Remain still and do not talk during the measurement.
7.Keep a record of your blood pressure and pulse readings for your
physician.A single measurement does not provide an accurate
indication of your true blood pressure.You need to take and record
several readings over a period of time.Try to measure your blood
pressure at the same time each day for consistency.
8.Wait 30~60 seconds between measurements.The wait time allows
the arteries to return to the condition prior to taking the blood
pressure measurement.You may need to increase the wait time
depending on your individual physiological characteristics.

About Blood Pressure
Blood Circulation
The blood circulation is responsible for supplying the body with oxygen.
blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the arteries.
The systolic blood pressure value (higher pressure or top value) represents
the blood pressure produced by contraction of the heart muscle.
The diastolic blood pressure value (lower pressure or lower value) represents
the blood pressure produced by relaxation of the heart muscle.

About Blood Pressure
The incidence of hypertension increases with age. In addition, a lack of exercise,
excess body fat and high levels of cholesterol (LDL), which sticks to the inside in
blood vessels, reduces elasticity of these vessels. Hypertension accelerates arterial
sclerosis which can lead to very serious conditions such as stroke and myocardial
infarction. For these reasons it is very important to know whether the blood
pressure is within a healthy range. Blood pressure fluctuates from minute to minute,
throughout the day. Therefore it is essential to take regular measurements to help
you identify an average blood pressure.

About Blood Pressure
Classification of Blood Pressure
After each measurement is completed, the LCD display will show your position
automatically on the six segments of the bar indicator which corresponds to World
Health Organization (WHO) Blood Pressure Indicator.

About Blood Pressure
Classification of Blood Pressure
High blood pressure can go unnoticed
for a long time, since it doesn’t cause
noticeable symptoms. The following
are all possible causes of abnormally
high blood pressure:
Overweight;
High cholesterol level;
Smoking;
Excessive alcohol consumption;
Stress and emotional upset;
Excessive consumption of salt;
Lack of physical exercise;
Genetic / hereditary predisposition;
Underlying illnesses, such as kidney
disorders or endocrine disturbance.
18
Exceptional Situations
Eliminate Fault
If your blood pressure reaches upper
values of 140~160 mmHg and lower
values of 90~95 mmHg in repeated
measurements over several days, you
should consult your doctor for detailed
medical examination. You can assist
the treatment prescribed by your
doctor in the following ways:
Loose weight and lower your
cholesterol level;
Reduce the consumption of alcohol;
Reduce the intake of salt;
Stop smoking;
Take regular exercise;
Monitor your blood pressure.
Exceptional Situations
Error Indicators
The following symbol will appear on the display when measuring abnormal.
CorrectionCauseSymbol
The course of
inflating appears
error.
When measurement
fails.
When the batteries
power are too low.
Wrap the cuff correctly and tightly.
Inflate over again after ensuring.
Do not move your arm and body,
and keep quiet.
Measure over again according to
correct way.
Replace all of the worn batteries
with two new ones.
19
Problem
No power.
No display appears on the
display screen.
Measurement values
appear too high or too low.
Causes and Solutions
Replace all the worn batteries with two
new ones.
Check the battery installation for proper
placement of the batteries polarities.
Blood pressure varies constantly. Many
factors including stress, time of day, how
you wrap the cuff, may affect your blood
pressure. Review the sections "Proper
Way of Measurement" and "Take a
Measurement".

Blood pressure measurements determined with this device are equivalent to
those obtained by a trained observer using the cuff/stethoscope auscultatory
method, within the limits prescribed by the American National Standard,
Manual, electronic, or automated sphygmomanometers.
The algorithm of blood pressure measurement of BP201 is adopted for this device.
