• Check the polarities of the batteries and install them correctly.
• Remove exhausted batteries promptly.
• If the product will not be used for a long time, remove the batteries.
• Batteries should be used before their expiration date.
Use after the expiration date may result in injury or staining of the

• All displays are lit for a moment after the
Start/Stop button is pressed, and then the display goes blank.
• No display appears even if the On/Off Start button is pressed.
• Approximately 500 measurements (approximately 5 months when measurements
are taken 3 times per day) can be taken with a set of fresh Panasonic alkaline
batteries (four AA-size LR6 batteries). (Measurement conditions: Room temperature
23°C (73°F); Pressurized to 170mmHg; Upper arm circumference: 30cm (11-51/64"))
(The batteries included are not guaranteed for the full life of brand new alkaline

shorter. When manganese batteries are used, battery life may become as short as
1 /6th the life of alkaline batteries.
• Even if the product is not used for a long time, be sure to replace batteries once a
year. If battery replacement is delayed, damage due to battery leakage may occur.
• When replacing batteries, always use four fresh alkaline batteries of the same type
from the same manufacturer.
