-AUTO3 measurement-

This device is equipped with an average mode function. This function performs blood pressure 
measurement three times in a row, calculates the average of these measurement results, and then displays 
the reliable blood pressure value according to AUTO measurements.

1.  Connect the AC adaptor

The AC adaptor jack is on the right side of the main unit.
When the AC adaptor is connected correctly, the AC adaptor 
mark switches on.

To use the rechargeable battery, see page 22.

2.  Push the POWER BUTTON to turn on the power

3.  After 0 appears in the display, press the MODE 

BUTTON to set [AUTO3]

4.  Set the preset pressure value using the UP or DOWN 

BUTTON

If the UP or DOWN BUTTON is pressed, the preset pressure 
value can be changed. The following pressures can be set: 
130, 160, 190, 220, 250, and 280 mmHg.
Select a pressure approximately 30 to 40 mmHg above the 
expected systolic pressure.
Set the pressure at 190 mmHg if patient’s systolic pressure is 
difficult to predict. By default, the inflation value is set to 190 
mmHg.

To allow the patient to relax, have a five-minute rest before starting measurement. 

Furthermore, make sure the patient does not talk or move during measurement.
Ensure that the cuff is kept at the height of patient’s heart during measurement.
To stop measurement, press the START/STOP BUTTON.

Air is exhausted quickly from the cuff.
