IMPORTANT PRODUCT NOTICES AND SAFETY 

INSTRUCTIONS

•  Although the readings from this device are for reference only, the 

Mayo Clinic (http://mayoclinic.com/health/hypoxemia/MY00219) 

suggests that normal readings are between 95 to 100% under most 

circumstances. Readings under 90% are considered low. 

•  This is a home healthcare product only and is solely intended for 

sports and recreational use. It is not intended to serve as a substitute 

for the advice of a physician or medical professional.

•  The readings from this pulse oximeter are for reference only. Consult 

a healthcare professional for interpretation of your pulse oximeter 

measurements. Contact a physician if you have or suspect any 

medical problem. Do not change your medications without the advice 

of your physician or healthcare professional.

•  The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of 

pacemakers.

•  Use the pulse oximeter only for its intended use.

•  Please keep this device away from children. Small parts such as 

battery and battery door could be hazardous if swallowed.

•  The lanyard could cause strangulation in conditions when twisted 

around the neck.

•  This pulse oximeter should not be used where alarms are required 

when taking measurements. 

•  For greatest accuracy, wait 10 minutes after exercising, bathing, eating, 

drinking beverages with alcohol or caffeine, or smoking to measure 

blood oxygen level.

•  Use only 3.6V “

½

 AA” Lithium battery for power supply.   

•  Do not use cellular phones or other radio frequency producing devices 

near the working device as it may interfere with proper operation of 

the pulse oximeter.

•  Not for use by or on persons under the age of 18 years old.

CARE, MAINTENANCE & CLEANING

•  Use a cotton swab with isopropyl alcohol solution (70%) to clean the 

inside of the finger sleeve or the outside of the unit.

•  DO NOT use any other liquid or sprays on the oximeter for 

cleaning purposes.

•  Under normal usage conditions, this device does not require 

calibration or technical maintenance other than infrequent 

replacement of the battery.

•  Leaky batteries can damage the unit. Remove the battery when 

the unit will not be used for a long time.

•  This product should only be used on the fingers.
•  DO NOT disassemble this device. If in need of repair, refer to the 

warranty section of this manual.

•  DO NOT use the product if the finger sleeve changes color or is 

no longer able to secure on finger.

•  DO NOT subject this device to extreme shocks (do not drop on 

floor).

•  DO NOT drop or insert any object into any opening.
•  DO NOT immerse the unit in water as this will result in damage to 

the unit.

•  DO NOT subject this device to extreme temperatures, humidity, 

moisture, or direct sunlight. Protect from dust.

•  If the unit is stored near freezing, allow it to acclimate to room 

temperature before use.

•  This monitor may not meet its performance specifications if stored 

or used outside of these temperature and humidity ranges:

If any abnormality arises during use, please check the following points:

ABOUT PULSE OXIMETERS

This pulse oximeter uses patented technology, which utilizes 

revolutionary optical sensor technology to measure both blood 

oxygen saturation (SpO

2

%) levels and pulse rate. By placing the 

finger into the sleeve and one-touch of a button, this device will 

send both red and infrared lights into the skin to collect data and 

display your blood oxygen and pulse rate.

REPLACING BATTERY

1.  The battery compartment is located 

on the top of the unit. Remove battery 

cover by pressing down and sliding the 

battery cover off. (fig. 1) 

2.  Install or replace the battery according 

to the polarity indicator located inside 

the compartment. Use only 3.6V  

½

 AA” sized Lithium batteries. (fig. 2)

3.  Replace the battery cover by inserting it 

back into place. (fig. 3)

Replace the batteries if:
•  The weak battery symbol appears on 

the display.

•  Nothing appears on the display after 

the finger is inserted into the sleeve and 

the button is pressed.

Note: Batteries are hazardous waste. Do 

not dispose of them together with the 

household garbage.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

If you are using this pulse oximeter for the 

first time, please remove the protective film 

from the screen and remove the pull tab 

from the battery door.
1.  Hold the pulse oximeter so that the 

picture of the finger nail on the finger 

sleeve is facing up.

2.  Gently place any finger into the finger 

sleeve as shown in the diagram  

(fig. A). Slightly press on the sides of the 

finger sleeve to ease the finger inside.

3.  Turn the hand over so that the LCD screen 

is now facing you and your finger is 

pointed up (fig. B).

4.  Push the Multi-directional button 

 to 

initiate readings (fig. C).

5.  Continue to vertically hold the pulse 

oximeter to enable readings 

6.  To change the direction of the LCD 

screen display by 180

°

, press the Multi-

directional button 

 for up to two (2) 

seconds.

Note:
•  Signal strength should be greater than one 

bar to indicate a proper reading  

(fig. D).

•  In the event of weak signal strength, please 

switch fingers and/or hand and try again.

•  For greatest accuracy, limit hand motion 

during measurement.

•  When the finger is removed, the pulse 

oximeter will turn off after 10 seconds.
