Monitoring blood pressure at home provides you an important and convenient way of managing your health. Keeping track of your blood pressure also helps your doctor diagnose and offer the right medication for you. What Is Normal Blood Pressure? Based on World Health Organization classifications: Normal within 130/ 85 mmHg High over 130/ 85 mmHg but below 139/ 89 mmHg Hypertension over 139/ 89 mmHg Variations in Blood Pressure Blood pressure varies by many factors, such as physical condition, weight, anxiety, season, and the time of day. It is generally lower in the morning, and increases from afternoon to the evening. It is lower in the summer and higher in the winter. It rises while at work and lowers while sleeping. It is also affected by alcohol consumption, smoking, medications, and physical activity. ! O BATTERY NOTES O • Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. • Do not burn or bury batteries. • Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type. • Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable) , or rechargeable batteries of different capacities. • If you do not plan to use the monitor for a month or more, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that can damage electronic parts. O NOTE O This monitor complies with EMC requirements according to IEC60601-1- 2. ! IMPORTANT ! • The blood pressure readings measured from this monitor are equivalent to those measured from the cuff/ stethoscope auscultation method by a physician or a trained health professional. • Keep radio transmitting equipment or cellular phones away from the blood pressure monitor to prevent affecting its performance. • Blood pressure measurements should be interpreted by a doctor who is familiar with your medical history. Do not self diagnose. Ask your doctor if you have any questions about blood pressure or the blood pressure monitor. Notes • While setting the date and time, if you do not press any key within one minute, the current time is saved and the clock automatically turns off. • The clock uses the 12-hour time format. P appears for PM. • Remove bracelets or watches before taking a measurement. • Do not wrap the pressure cuff over your jacket or sleeve. • Do not use the blood pressure monitor if your wrist is injured. • If the cuff fails to stop inflating, unwrap the cuff. Re-fasten it to take the measurement. Hints • Take your blood pressure at the same time under the same conditions every day. • Sit comfortably with your legs uncrossed and feet flat on the floor, with your back supported. • Relax and rest for 10 minutes before measuring. • Do not talk, move, or vibrate the monitor during measurement. • Blood pressure varies in both arms. For an accurate reading, use the same arm. If possible, we suggest using the left arm. To take multiple measurements right after each other, wait at least three minutes for each measurement. Care Keep the blood pressure monitor dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and store the blood pressure monitor only in normal temperature environments. Handle the blood pressure monitor carefully; do not drop it. Keep the blood pressure monitor away from dust and dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Service and Repair If your blood pressure monitor is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance. To locate your nearest RadioShack, use the store locator RadioShack's website (, or call 1-800-The Shack (8437422) and follow the menu options. tampering with the blood pressure monitor's internal components can cause a malfunction and its warranty.
