This cuff is suitable for you if the index mark ( ) is within the MIN/MAX
Range after fitting the cuff on the upper arm.
If the measurement is performed on the right upper arm, the line should be located on the
inside of your elbow. Ensure that your arm is not pressing on the line.
Blood pressure may vary between the right and left arm, which may mean that the measured blood
pressure values are different. Always perform the measurement on the same arm.
If the values between the two arms are significantly different, please consult your doctor to deter-
mine which arm should be used for the measurement.
Warning
The unit may only be operated with the original cuff. The cuff is suitable for an arm circumference
of 23 up to 43 cm.
7.2 Adopting the correct posture
• Before the initial blood pressure measurement, make sure always to rest for about 5 minutes.
Otherwise deviations can occur.
• You can take the measurement while sitting or lying. Always make sure that the cuff is at heart
level.
• To take your blood pressure, make sure you are sitting comfortably with your arms and back
leaning on something. Do not cross your legs. Place your feet flat on the ground.
