Comment
If it is not possible to fit the cuff to your left arm, it
can also be placed on your right arm. However, all
measurements should be made using the same arm.
Comparable blood pressure measurements always
require the same conditions (relax for several
minutes before a reading).
5.4. Measuring procedure
After the cuff has been appropriately positioned the
measurement can begin:
a)
Press the POWER button. After the system check, the
monitor displays OK and the pump begins to inflate
the cuff
. On the display, the increasing cuff
pressure is continually shown.
b) After automatically reaching an individual pressure,
the pump stops and the pressure slowly falls. The
cuff pressure is displayed during the measurement.
c) When the device has detected your pulse, the
heart symbol in the display begins to blink.
d) When the measurement has been concluded, the
air will automatically release from the cuff. The
measured systolic and diastolic blood pressure
values, as well as the pulse, are now displayed.
e) The measurement results are displayed until you
switch the device off. If no button is pressed for 1
minute, the device switches off automatically.
