• The blood pressure changes with every heartbeat and is consequently
changing constantly 24 hours a day.
• The measurement of blood pressure can be influenced by the user’s
position, condition, or other factors. To obtain the highest degree of accuracy
it is recommended that the measurement is taken 1 hour after workout,
bathing, finishing a meal, consuming alcoholic or caffeine beverages, or
after smoking.
• Before measurement it is recommended that you sit still and relax for 15
minutes. The user should not be physically tired or exhausted when the
measurement is taken.
• The user must not talk or move arm or hand during measurement.
