Thank you for purchasing KINGYIELD Fully Automatic Upper Arm Style Digital Blood Pressure Monitor. The unit uses the oscillometric method of blood pressure measurement. It means the unit detects the movement of your blood through your brachial artery, and converts your blood pressure into a digital reading. The unit is simple to use because a stethoscope is not needed while using an oscillometric monitor. The unit stores automatically 60 sets of measurement values. You can read the stored data conveniently by pressing the memory button.

If your arm cuff is broken or not functional. Please use a new cuff. A new arm cuff does not include an air plug. Please continue to use the

old air plug on the new arm cuff.

Warning: do not use rechargeable batteries

An irregular heartbeat rhythm is defined as a rhythm that is more than 25% slower or 25% faster from the average rhythm detected while the monitor is measuring thesystolic blood pressure and the diastolic blood pressure.

Before Taking A Measurement

1. Avoid eating, drinking, alcohol, smoking, exercsing and bathing for 30 minutes before takinga measurement. Rest for at least 15 minutes before taking the measurement.

2. Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during stressful times.

3. The cuff can be applied to your left or right 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 trueblood pressure. You need to take and record several readings over a period of time. Try to measureyour 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 mesurement.You may need to increase the wait time depending on you individual physiological characteristics.

5

Battery Installation / Replacement

Use four identical 1.5V alkaline batteries type AA LR6. Replace all of the batteries if the symbol of low battery appears on the display. Never leave any low battery in the battery compartment

since they may leak and cause damage to the unit.

Caution!

The battery cover will be closed tight when you hear a clicking sound.

3

Replace the battery cover.

2

Remove the battery cover from the battery compartment.

How to Install Battery

Install 4 “AA” size batteries so the + (positive) and - (negative) polarities match the polarities of the battery compartment as indicated.

7

Proper Use of the Arm Cuff

8

Have your upper arm relax, keep your palm upwarp and your fingers curving naturally, then turn on the unit and start to measure.

Wrap the cuff tightly around your upper arm. Not more than 2-finger-room allowed between the cuff and your arm.

7

1 ~ 2cm

The hose runs down the inside of your arm. The bottom of the cuff should be approximately 1~2cm above your elbow.

6

5

Put your arm through the loop, and pull it up to the position of your upper arm.

6

Proper Use of the Arm Cuff

4

Pass the end of the cuff through the metal, and keep the hose outward.

Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Place your arm on a table so as to level the cuff to your heart.

3

Remove all clothes from your upper arm allowing the cuff to fit directly on the skin.

The unit stores the blood pressure and pulse rate in the memory after completing a measurement every time. It can automatically store 60 sets of measurement values. The oldest record is deleted to save the latest measurement value when more than 60 sets.

The unit also calculates an average reading based on the values of the latest 3 times measurement taken. You can get the average measurement value when you press the memory button for the first time. Press the memory button for the second time, you can get the latest measurement value, so on and so forth.

The symbol "M" and the relative times will appear at the same time after you press the memory button.

Take a Measurement

In order to ensure the accuracy of the measurement for the systolic pressure more than 180 mmHg, press and hold the memory button until the unit inflates 30 to 40 mmHg higher than your suspected systolic pressure if you know. ( The unit will not inflate above 299 mmHg). Please rest for at least 3 minutes before taking the next measurement.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SPECIAL CONDITIONS

The unit will automatically turn off after 2 minutes if you have forgotten to turn off it.

About Blood Pressure

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.

Treatment of 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.

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:

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.

Systolic Blood Pressure Diastolic Blood Pressure

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.
