For proper measurement of blood
pressure
• Take a deep breath five or six time and then
relax before measuring blood pressure. If you
are tense when taking the measurement, you
will not get a valid reading.
• Blood pressure will be elevated when you are
in a worrisome or irritated state, suffering from
lack of sleep or constipation, or after exercise
or a meal.
• Putting on the cuff is one of the most impor-
tant tasks for ensuring proper measurement
of blood pressure. Wind the cuff around the
wrist and tighten it so that one finger may be
inserted between the cuff and wrist.
• Do NOT measure blood pressure after bathing
or drinking.
• When you feel like relieving yourself, you
should do so before measuring blood pressure.
• Measure blood pressure where the room tem-
perature is about 20˚C. Do NOT measure blood
pressure when it is too cold (below 10˚C) or
too hot (above 40˚C) in the room.
• Do NOT measure blood pressure immediately
after drinking coffee or tea or smoking.
• Measure blood pressure with a relaxed and
quiet posture. Keep the center of the cuff at
the level of your heart, and do NOT move your
arm or talk during measurement.
• Do NOT keep on measuring so many times, as
your arm will have built up congestion of blood,
and you will not get a valid reading.
Precautions for use
• If you suffer from heart disease, high blood
pressure or other circulatory disease, please
consult your doctor first.
• If you feel abnormal pressure of the cuff dur-
ing use or any other irregularity, reduce the
pressure by immediately switching off the
power or removing the batteries and consult
the sales outlet where purchased.
• If you think the measured value is abnormal or
if measuring makes you feel unwell, discon-
tinue use and consult your doctor.
• Measurement of blood pressure may not be
possible for someone with a weak pulse or ar-
rhythmia.
