verify that the [ Cuff Press. ] value is appropriate. Change it if necessary.

4. When the puncture is complete, select [ VeniPuncture ] key, or press the

During puncture, the NIBP display shows the real-time inflation pressure of the cuff,
destination inflation pressure, and the remaining time in venous puncture mode.
