9 making a blood pressure measurement
The unit is ready for use. The unit
will automatically start to inflate
slowly to measure your blood
pressure. During inflation, the
pressure build-up symbol will ap-
pear in the display (fig 8).
If the cuff pressure is low, the
unit interrupts the measuring and
increases the cuff pressure to an
acceptable level. When pressure
reaches to the proximity of your
systolic blood pressure, the moni-
tor will exhaust cuff pressure. The
pressure build-up symbol in the
the will now appear display will disappear; in its place the pressure reduction symbol will now appear.
As the pump reaches the starting pressure, measuring starts. While measuring, do not move the cuff
or your arm or hand muscles, don’t speak. The cuff will deflate automatically. While the unit
determines your pulse frequency, the pulse symbol will flash.
