2. Attach the arm cuff to the left arm for best results.
3. Set the pressure value approximately 40
above your normal
Systolic blood pressure by pressing the PRESSURE SWITCH. There are 9
settings:
and 280
See “Important
Note” on following page.
4. Press the START SWITCH.
l
The arm cuff pressurizes when the Start Switch is pressed.
l
When the Start Switch is
pressed during pressurization, air in the arm
cuff is released.
5. When Pressurization is completed, the automatic exhaust mechanism will
gradually reduce arm cuff pressure, and the
mark will appear indicating that
measurement is in progress.
1) Pressure value appears on the
and exhaust speed on the right side of the display.

2) When a pulse is detected, the pressure value moves to the right side of the display. At
this time the
mark flashes at the same rate as pulse rate, and the buzzer
sounds when
pulsation is sufficient.

IMPORTANT NOTE
l
If insufficient pressure is obtained, the unit will inflate the cuff again to the next
pre-set pressure. The unit will continue to reinflate until it is able to obtain an
accurate pressure, each time inflating to the next preset pressure. At that point, if the
unit is unable to obtain sufficient pressure the “Err” mark will appear in the display.
6. Turn Power OFF
Press the Power switch to turn power OFF. (See Diagram A)
7. Previous Measurement Display
When the
