• When you press D, the message appears on the
display of the Watch, indicating the Measurement Mode. The
message starts to flash after about six or seven
seconds. Make sure you place your finger onto the sensor before
the flashing starts.
• A few seconds after you place your finger onto the sensor, the
Base Unit starts to inflate the cuff, so you should feel it tighten on
your arm. This means that blood pressure measurement has
started. At the same time, the display of the Watch shows a
flashing
indicator and a scrolling waveform as pulse wave and
electric potential detection starts.
5. After the readings on the Base Unit and Watch are complete, the
Base Unit sends blood pressure data to the Watch. The basic data
setting procedure is complete when the Watch beeps and displays
blood pressure values.
Note
• It takes about four or five seconds for the Base Unit to send the data
to the Watch after Base Unit and Watch readings are complete. Do
not move your arm until the Watch beeps and displays the blood
pressure values, which indicates that the data send operation is
complete. Make sure you keep the infrared ports of the Base Unit and
the Watch pointed at each other until the data send operation is
complete.
• The message on the display of the Watch indicates that
measurement by the watch is complete, and the Watch is standing by
for data to be sent from the Base Unit. A data communication error
occurs (indicated by the message on the Watch display) if
the Watch does not receive any data within about 90 seconds after
appears.
• Remember that your physical condition is constantly changing.
Because of this, you should update your basic data periodically (about
once a month). Also, the basic data must be changed whenever a
different person uses the Watch.
• Inputting basic data replaces any existing basic data currently in
Watch memory. Note that the pulse rate, and systolic and diastolic
blood pressure values that make up the basic data is stored in Watch
memory, just as readings taken with the Watch are.
• To return to the Timekeeping Mode, press C.

Error Messages When Setting Basic Data
The error messages listed below can
appear in the upper display area of the
Watch during the basic data setting
procedure. If a message appears,
determine the cause and take the
necessary action to correct the problem.
• Be sure to take breaks between basic
data setting sessions. Pressure from the
Base Unit cuff can cut off circulation in
your arm and cause incorrect readings. If
you need to restart a basic data setting
procedure for some reason, be sure to
remove the cuff and allow some time to
pass before restarting.
Message Cause Action
A pulse wave cannot be
detected because you are
pressing down on the sensor
too hard, your fingertip is
cold, etc.
Electric potential cannot be
detected because your
fingertip is too dry.
A reading is impossible
because you are moving your
fingertip or there is too much
light.
The Base Unit cannot be
found.
The Watch and Base Unit
may be too far apart or an
error may have occurred on
the Base Unit.
Watch battery power is low.
Apply less pressure with your
finger. If your fingertip is cold,
warm it up.
Moisten your fingertip slightly.
Make sure you do not make
your fingertip too wet.
Do not move your finger while
a reading is in progress.
Avoid taking readings in area
exposed to direct sunlight.
may also appear
if your fingertip is cold or dry.
See the explanations for
and for
information about what you
should do.
Make sure the infrared ports
of the Base Unit and the
Watch are oriented correctly.
Do not move the Watch while
Basic Data setting is in
progress.
See the Base Unit’s manual
for information about what to
do in case of Base Unit error.
Have the battery replaced as
soon as possible. Contact the
Store/Dealer where
purchased about battery
replacement.
When the message appears on the Watch, keep the
infrared ports of the Watch and Base Unit facing each other.
Press the Watch’s D button, place your finger on the sensor,
and try taking a reading again. After measurements are
complete, the Base Unit sends data to the Watch, and the
basic data setting procedure is complete. Note that when the
message appears, the cuff of the Base Unit does
not inflate (does not tighten on your arm) when you press the
D button.
• See “Tips on Placing Your Finger on the Sensor” for information about
how to position your finger.
BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENTS
In order to get a reasonably accurate idea of changes in your blood
pressure from day to day, we recommend that you take measurements
under the same conditions (same time, same environment, etc.) each
day.
Important!
• Remember that you have to input basic data before you can use the
Watch for blood pressure measurements. Once you set your basic
data, you can take blood pressure measurements using the
procedures described below.
• You should use the same finger for blood pressure and pulse
measurements that you used when setting your basic data. Otherwise,
measured data may be wrong.
• This Watch automatically stores measured values, along with the
current time and date in memory. Be sure to set the time and date
before taking measurements.
• When using the Watch to take a blood pressure reading, turn off the
Base Unit and keep it away from the Watch.
Extend your finger slightly
and keep it relaxed.
Rest your arm on a table and do not
move it. Keep your arm and
shoulders relaxed and tension free.
