Remember to:
1. Make sure that the appropriate cuff size is used; refer to the cuff circumference range in the Specifications section
of this manual.
2. Measure on the same arm each time.
3. Stay still during measurement. Do not move your arm, body or the monitor.
4. Stay still and calm for one to one and half minutes before taking a blood pressure measurement. Prolonged
over-inflation of the bladder may cause ecchymoma of your arm.
5. Keep the cuff clean. Cleaning the cuff after every 200 times of usage is recommended. If the cuff becomes dirty,
clean it with a moistened cloth. Do not rinse the monitor or cuff with running water.
