The measurement results of automated blood pressure monitors
can be influenced by the measuring location, posture, previous
exertion and general physical condition. Please pay attention to
the usage information in order to obtain accurate readings.
• Do not consume alcohol, caffeine or smoke for at least one
hour before measuring.
• Rest for at least 5 minutes before taking the measurement.
Depending on the previous degree of exertion, you may even
need to rest for up to an hour.
• Expose the upper arm. Under no circumstances may clothes
hinder the blood flow to or from the arm, as this affects the
blood pressure at the measuring point and can lead to incor-
rect readings.
• Breath slowly and deeply. Do not hold your breath.
• Check the display for irregular pulse signals. If required, re-
peat the measurement when conditions have improved.
• In order to exclude side differences and to obtain compara-
ble measurement results, it is important to always take the
measurement on the same arm. Ask your doctor which side it
is advisable for you to measure.
• Always take your daily blood pressure measurements at
around the same time.
• Do not move or talk during measuring.
• Blood pressure is not a fixed value. It can go up or down by
more than 20 mmHg in patients within a few minutes.
