Introduction BPM18R Series Blood Pressure Monitor applies the Oscillometric method to measure human systolic / diastolic blood pressure and heart rate. All values are shown on the LCD monitor and using the Bluetooth technology (BLE4.0) or USB to transfer the related information of your blood pressure measurement. This device is designed only for adults. CAUTION: 　 No modification of this equipment is allowed. 　 Keep your equipment out of the reach of children, pets and pest. 　 The Patient is an intended operator. 　 Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. 　 Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions. 1 Important Information Before Use When using this product, please be sure to follow all the notes listed below. Any action against these notices may cause injury or affect the accuracy. 1. WARNING – Do not modify this equipment without authorization of the manufacturer. 2. Blood pressure measurements should only be interpreted by a physician or a trained health care professional who is familiar with your medical history. Through regular use of this device and recording of your measurements, you can keep your physician informed of the changes in your blood pressure. 3. Perform your measurement in a quiet place. You should be seated in a relaxed position. 4. Avoid smoking, eating, taking medication, alcohol consumption or physical activity 30 minutes prior to taking a reading. If you are exhibiting signs of stress, avoid taking your measurement until the feeling subsides. 5. Rest 15 minutes prior to taking a reading. 6. Remove any constrictive clothing or jewelry that may interfere with the cuff placement. 7. Keep the monitor stable during measurement to achieve an accurate reading. Remain still; do not talk during the measurement. 8. Record your daily blood pressure and pulse readings on a chart. 9. Take your readings at the same time, each day or as recommended by your physician to get an accurate indication of change in your true blood pressure. 10.Wait a minimum of 2~3 minutes between readings to allow for the blood vessels to return to normal. The wait time may vary depending on your individual physiological characteristics. 11.Although such cases are rare, for those with an extremely weak pulse or irregular pulse, errors may result which prevent proper measurement. If abnormal variations are noticed, consult with your physician or trained healthcare professional. 12.This device is intended for adult use. While taking a measurement, you can stop the inflation or deflation process of the cuff at any time by pressing the POWER button. 13.It is recommended that the accuracy should be checked by the manufacturer every two years. 14.If you would require any assistance during setting up, using or maintaining, please contact the manufacturer.

Applying Your Cuff It is important to avoid smoking, eating, taking medication, alcohol consumption or physical activity 30 minutes prior to taking a reading. If for any reason you are unable to or should not use your left wrist, please modify the instructions for cuff application to your right wrist. Your physician can help you identify which wrist is best for you to take measurements from. Applying Your Cuff 1. Remove any constrictive clothing or jewelry that may interfere with cuff placement. 2. Be seated at a table or desk with your feet flat on the floor. 3. Hold your wrist in front of you with your palm facing upward. 4. Apply the preformed cuff to your wrist so that the digital display face is positioned on the inside area of your wrist facing you. 5. Adjust the cuff 0.5~1 cm from the edge of the head of the ulna bone. 6. The cuff should fit comfortably, yet snugly around your wrist. Blood pressure naturally varies from one wrist to the other; therefore, measure your blood pressure on the same wrist to ensure comparability of the two readings. 7 Taking a blood pressure measurement Please read the preceding portions of this manual prior to taking your first reading. 1. Rest your elbow on a solid surface with your palm facing upward. Elevate your wrist so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart. Relax your left hand. 2. Press the POWER button. This will turn the power on. 3. After the self-test, the values for the last reading will appear on the display. 4. The blood pressure monitor start to measure. 5. The ‘Easy Positioning System’ helps to ensure the arm is in the correct position. Simply move your arm up and down until the wrist stays right height. 6. The measurement starts automatically once the correct position has been obtained. Do not move or speak while the measurement is in progress. 7. The cuff will automatically begin to inflate, with the display showing the increasing pressure in the cuff. As the pressure increases, an arrow pointing up will appear on the display. 8. When the inflation has reached optimum level, the display will begin to show the decreasing pressure; the screen will display an arrow pointing down while you feel the pressure of the cuff decrease. 9. To detect the heartbeat, the heartbeat symbol will appear and continuous flashes on the LCD display. 10. Your blood pressure measurement and pulse will displaysimultaneously on the screen. 11. The Hypertension Indicator will indicate your reading range on the display separately. 12.The reading will automatically be stored in memory. 13. Select POWER to turn the unit off and conserve energy and battery life. The unit will automatically shut-off approximately 2 minutes. 8
Irregular Heartbeat Detector Your digital blood pressure monitor features an Irregular Heartbeat Detector. Irregular Heartbeats may influence the results of the measurement. If the monitor detects the Irregular Heartbeats during measurement, the symbol “ ” will appear on the display with the measurement values. You can take another measurement to make sure the values are not influenced by moving during measurement or Irregular Heartbeat. 2. If this symbol appears frequently, we recommend you consult your physician. 3. This device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage. 9 World Health Organization (WHO) This unit features our unique Hypertension Indicator. The World Health Organization has established globally accepted standards for the assessment of high or low blood pressure readings. The below chart should be considered only as a guideline, always consult with your physician or health care professional to interpret your individual results. 10
