INTRODUCTION
Thank you for selecting the Oregon ScientificTM Talking
Wrist Type Blood Pressure Monitor (BPW810). The
BPW810 features voice announcement and playback
of blood pressure measurements for added
convenience and has been designed to provide you
with many years of reliable service. The unit can help
you measure and track the following metrics:
• Systolic pressure
• Diastolic pressure
• Mean arterial pressure
• Pulse rate
• Historic record of up to 60 measurements per user
(maximum 2 users)
Readings taken by the BPW810 are equivalent to those
obtained by a trained observer using the cuff and
stethoscope auscultation method, within the limits
prescribed by "EN1060-3 Non-invasive
Sphygmomanometers-Part 3: Supplementary
requirements for electro-mechanical blood pressure
measuring systems." The monitor's accuracy in measuring
diastolic pressure was tested using the fifth Korotkoff
sound method.
This manual contains important safety and care
information, and provides step-by-step instructions for
using the product.
Read the manual thoroughly before using the product.

SAFETY AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Please observe the following safety precautions when
setting up and using your blood pressure monitor.
• This device is intended for adult use only.
• This device is intended for non-invasive measuring
and monitoring of arterial blood pressure. It is not
intended for use on extremities other than the wrist
or for functions other than obtaining a blood
pressure measurement.
• Do not confuse self-monitoring with self-diagnosis.
This unit allows you to monitor your blood pressure.
Do not begin or end medical treatment based solely
on the measurements of this device. Consult a
physician for treatment advice.
• If you are taking medication, consult your physician
to determine the most appropriate time to measure
your blood pressure. Never change a prescribed
medication without consulting your physician.
• This unit is not suitable for continuous monitoring
during medical emergencies or operations.
• If the cuff pressure exceeds 40 kPa (300 mmHg),
the unit will automatically deflate. Should the cuff
not deflate when pressures exceeds 40 kPa
(300mmHg), detach the cuff from the wrist and
press the

CARING FOR YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR
To ensure you receive the maximum benefit from using
this product, please observe the following care guidelines.
• When not in use, store the unit in a dry place away
from direct sunlight.
• Do not immerse the unit in water. If it comes in contact
with water, dry it immediately with a soft lint-free cloth.
• Use a soft, slightly moistened cloth to wipe off the
unit and cuff. Do not use abrasive or corrosive
cleaning agents, as these may cause damage.
• Remove the batteries whenever you are planning
to store the unit for a long period of time.
• When replacing batteries, use new batteries as
specified in this user manual. Do not mix new and
old batteries.
• Do not place objects such as stickers on the wrist
cuff or unit, as these may impair the measurement.
• Do not subject the unit to excessive force, shock, dust,
temperature changes, or humidity. Such treatment may
result in malfunction, a shorter electronic life span,
damaged batteries, or distorted parts.
• Do not tamper with the internal components. Doing
so will terminate the product warranty and may
cause damage.
• The unit contains no user- serviceable parts.
• If you no longer need to use this product, protect
the environment by bringing it to your dealer or
designated collection point for proper disposal.
ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE
What is blood pressure?
Blood pressure is the force generated by the blood
against the walls of arteries during cardiac contraction
and relaxation
(e.g., the pumping action of the heart).
What are systolic pressure and diastolic
pressure?
When ventricles contract and pump blood out of the
heart, blood pressure reaches its maximum value. This
highest pressure in the cycle is known as systolic
pressure. When the heart relaxes between heartbeats,
the lowest blood pressure is diastolic pressure.
What is mean arterial pressure (MAP)?
The mean arterial pressure (MAP) is the average
pressure that forces blood through the arteries. It is
not the average of the systolic and diastolic blood
pressure; rather, MAP corresponds to a state of
balance between the compressive and expansive
forces acting on the arterial wall when there is no
distension outward or inward. MAP is an excellent
way to evaluate the stress on the walls of your blood
vessels, and can be used to evaluate excessive load
on the cardiovascular system. Show your MAP history
to your doctor to provide additional information that
may help him or her understand your situation.
