ARM CUFF
Very Important:
Proper cuff size is critical to accurate
measurement.
This monitor comes with one UltraSoft Upper Arm Cuff that fits arm
circumferences from 9"-17" (23cm-43cm).
If the arrow falls outside of the solid-colored line, you will need a
larger cuff. A larger cuff, designed for arms from 17"-22" (43cm-56cm),
is available for this monitor. To purchase, please contact HoMedics
Consumer Relations at 1-800-466-3342.
NOTE:
• If an oversized cuff is used, the blood pressure measurement tends to
inaccurately run lower than the actual blood pressure.
• If an undersized cuff is used, the blood pressure measurement tends to
inaccurately run higher than the actual blood pressure.
