Measuring your blood pressure
The unit now inflates the cuff to the prese-
lected cuff pressure. The rise in pressure in
the cuff is indicated on the digital display.
An acoustic signal sounds once the prese-
lected pressure has been reached. The
pump switches off and the air in the cuff
escapes automatically.
Interrupting a measurement:
A measurement can be interrupted at any
stage by pressing the start button; the cuff
deflates automatically.
During the measurement phase, the fall-
ing pressure and the symbol are indi-
cated on the display.
