Here are a few helpful tips to help you obtain more accurate readings:
• Blood pressure changes with every heartbeat and is in constant fluctuation
throughout the day.
• Blood pressure recording can be affected by the position of the user, his or
her physiological condition and other factors. For greatest accuracy, wait
one hour after exercising, bathing, eating, drinking beverages with alcohol
or caffeine, or smoking to measure blood pressure.
• Before measurement, it’s suggested that you sit quietly for at least 5 minutes
as measurement taken during a relaxed state will have greater accuracy. You
should not be physically tired or exhausted while taking a measurement.
• Do not take measurements if you are under stress or tension.
• During measurement, do not talk or move your arm or hand muscles.
• Take your blood pressure at normal body temperature. If you are feeling cold
or hot, wait a while before taking a measurement.
• If the monitor is stored at very low temperature (near freezing), have it
placed at a warm location for at least one hour before using it.
• Wait 5 minutes before taking the next measurement.
1. Press the User-Switching key to select memory zone 1 or memory zone 2.
After a memory zone is selected, press the START/STOP key to reset the
monitor so it can start measurement in the chosen memory zone.
2. Press the START/STOP key. All digits will light up, checking the display func
-
tions. The checking procedure will be completed in 2 seconds.
3. After all symbols appear, the display will show a blinking “0”. The monitor
is ready to measure and will automatically inflate the cuff slowly to start
measurement.
4. When the measurement is completed, the cuff will exhaust the pressure
inside. Systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse will be shown simulta-
neously on the LCD screen. The measurement is then automatically stored
into the pre-designated memory zone.
This monitor will re-inflate automatically to approximately 220 mmHg if the

Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked
with the following symbol:
NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and
reflection from structures, objects and people.
a: Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile
radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy.
To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be
considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the AC701k is used exceeds the applicable RF com
-
pliance level above, the AC701k should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed,
additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the AC701k.
b: Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
Recommended separation distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the AC701k
The AC701k is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The
customer or the user of the AC701k can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance
between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the AC701k as recommended below,
according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.
