Deluxe Pulse Oximeter
ABOUT PULSE OXIMETERS
This pulse oximeter uses patented technology, which utilizes
revolutionary optical sensor technology to measure both blood
oxygen saturation (SpO %) levels and pulse rate. By placing the
2
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.

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.
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
Fig. 1
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,
Fig. 2
drinking beverages with alcohol or caffeine, or smoking to measure
blood oxygen level.
½
• Use only 3.6V " 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.
