Using The Monitor
Alarm ON/OFF Mark On The Display
When the alarm is on, a “p” appears on the LCD. To turn the alarm off, simply
press the CLOCK button once.
The alarm will sound for 1 minute. To stop the alarm sound, press the START
button once.
Attaching The Arm Cuff
1. Wrap the cuff around the upper arm,
about 2-3 cm above the elbow, as shown.
Place the cuff directly against the skin, as
clothing may cause a faint pulse, and
result in a measurement error.
2. Constriction of the upper arm, caused by
rolling up a shirtsleeve, may prevent
accurate readings.
How To Take Proper Measurements
For the most accurate blood pressure measurement:
Sit comfortably at a table. Rest your arm on the table.
Relax for about five to ten minutes before measurement.
Place the center of the cuff at the same height as your heart.
Remain still and keep quiet during measurement.
Do not measure right after physical exercise or a bath. Rest for twenty or
thirty minutes before taking the measurement.
Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time every day.
Measurement
During measurement, it is normal for the cuff to feel very tight. (Do not be
alarmed).
After Measurement
After measurement, press the START button to turn off the power. Remove
the cuff and record your data.
Note: The device has an automatic power shut-off function, which turns the
power off automatically one minute after measurement.
Allow at least ten minutes between measurements on the same person.
