Measurements
Model UA-782 is designed to detect the pulse and to inflate the cuff to a
systolic pressure level automatically.
If your systolic pressure is expected to exceed 230 mmHg, read
"Measurement With The Desired Systolic Pressure" on the next page.
Normal Measurement
1. Place the cuff on the arm (preferably the left arm).
Sit quietly during measurement.
2. Press the
START
button.
The average blood pressures and last data
number are displayed briefly.
Then the display changes, as indicated in
the figure at the right, as the measurement
begins. The cuff starts to inflate. It is
normal for the cuff to feel very tight.
A pressure bar indicator is displayed, as in
the figure at the right, during inflation.
Note: If you wish to stop inflation at any time,
press the
START
button again.
3. When inflation is complete, deflation starts
automatically and the (heart mark)
blinks, indicating that the measurement is
in progress. Once the pulse is detected,
the mark blinks with each pulse beat.
Note: If an appropriate pressure is not
obtained, the device starts to inflate
again automatically.
4. When the measurement is complete, the
systolic and diastolic pressure readings and
pulse rate are displayed. The cuff exhausts
the remaining air and deflates completely.
5. Press the
START
button again to turn
off the power.
Note: Model UA-782 is provided with an automatic power shut-off
function. Take a rest between measurements on the same person.
