To do this, first measure blood pressure on both arms and sub-
sequently always on the arm which produced the higher rea-
ding.
Place cuff in such a manner that the lower cuff edge finishes
ca. 2 – 3 cm above the elbow and the centre of the rubber bag
rests on top of the artery.
Taking the Blood Pressure:
Inflate the cuff to above the systolic pressure. The first strong
pumping action automatically closes the pressure release
valve. By lightly pressing the button of the air release valve the
deflation speed can be finely adjusted. The World Health Or-
ganisation (WHO) recommends a deflation speed of 2 – 3
mmHg per second. To avoid a reading error, read the pressure
values perpendicular to the scale.
When the measurement is completed, firmly press the air re-
lease button once more. This fully opens the release valve to al-
low all the remaining air to escape from the cuff.
Technical Data:
Measurement range: 0 – 300 mmHg
Accuracy of pressure indicated: ± 3 mmHg or 2% of the
reading (whichever is greater)
Storing conditions:
–20°C – 70°C, 15 – 85% rel. humidity
Operating conditions:
10°C – 40°C, 15 – 85% rel. humidity
Cleaning of Unit and Cuff:
– To clean the unit – only use a soft dry cloth.
– To clean the cuff – first remove the rubber bag, the cuff can
then be washed by hand at maximum 30 degrees Celcius.
Disinfection:
For disinfectant wipes (at least 5 minutes exposure time) of the
device and the cuff, we recommend the disinfectant liquid Micro-
zid Liquid Sensitiv (Schülke & Mayr).
To disinfect the cuff, we recommend spray disinfection.
