a table or stand.
3. Adjust the cuff to the same height as your heart with a comfortable
support such as a folded towel etc.
Hold your elbow if you do not have an appropriate table to put your
elbow on.
Breathe deeply and relax!
Make sure the cuff is wrapped correctly and it is at the same height
as your heart.
Do not move, chat or strain your arm or hand during measurement.
Measurement can be made lying on your back. Make sure that the cuff is
at the height of your heart. Reading may vary slightly, depending on
posture, whether sitting or lying.
If the cuff is lower (higher) than the heart, the measured reading
tends to become larger (smaller).

the cuff to make sure the hook and loop attaches securely.
