shown in the fi g. 3 (if cuff is with ring).

2. Apply the cuff to your left upper arm so that the air tube
is directed to your palm (fi g. 4). If the measurement on your
left arm is diffi
cult, you may use your right arm. In this case
remember that the readings may diff er by 5-10 mmHg and
even more.

3. Wrap the cuff around your upper arm so that the
bottom of the cuff is approximately 2-3 cm above
your elbow. The sign “ARTERY” should be over the arm
artery as shown in the fi g. 5.

4. Fix the cuff so that it fi ts tightly to the arm, but see that
it is not overtight. Too tight or too free placement of the
cuff may give inaccurate readings.
