Using The Monitor
Selecting The Correct Cuff
Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading. If the cuff is not the
proper size, the reading may yield an incorrect blood pressure value.
The arm size is printed on each cuff.
The
index
and proper fit range, on the cuff, tell you if you are applying the correct
cuff. (Refer to "
Applying The Arm Cuff
" on next page)
If the index
points outside of the range, contact your local dealer to purchase a
replacement cuff.
The arm cuff is a consumable. If it becomes worn, purchase a new one.
