 Taking a Reading 

(continued)

Do not take measurements.

Within 1 hour of eating or drinking alcohol

Immediately after drinking coffee or tea, or smoking

In a moving vehicle

Immediately after exercising or taking a bath 

(Wait at least 0 minutes and take a measurement while staying quiet.)

In cold places 

[Take measurements at room temperatures around 0 °C (68 °F).]

When you need to urinate 

(Wait several minutes after urinating before taking measurements.)

Be sure to obey the following points for accurate measurements:

Do not move your body, arm, or fingertips.

Do not touch the main unit.

Do not talk.

Do not use a cellular phone near the main unit.

Positions of the main unit and the wireless display

Your body reflects infrared 

rays.

For the measurement on 

your left arm

Face the wireless display towards you 

into position within reach of your hand 

[within approx. 23

 (60 cm)].

 

* Do not put your hand or any other objects 

in front of the wireless display.

The main unit and the wireless display 

communicate with each other using infrared 

rays.

Infrared rays are transmitted from the 

transmitter on the side panel of the main 

unit, and reflected on your body and then 

received on the bottom of the front panel of 

the wireless display. The units may not 

communicate due to improper positioning of 

the wireless display or other environmental 

conditions (lighting, sunlight, etc.) In those 

cases, place the wireless display closer to 

your body.

* If you place the wireless display where it 

cannot receive signals from the main unit, 

and then press the On/Off and the Start 

button, the main unit starts a measurement 

but nothing appears on the wireless display.

* If the wireless display is placed where it can 

receive signals from the main unit while the 

measurement is executed, results are 

displayed.

The same range 

(restrictions) as the 

measurement on your left 

arm is applied.

For the measurement on 

your right arm

If the wireless display cannot receive signals from the 

main unit, the 

 mark flashes on the wireless 

display (on the display panel) as shown in the figure 

on the left.

In this case, set the wireless display in the proper 

position.
