Selecting the Correct Cuff Size
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 arm cuff is a consumable. If it becomes worn, purchase a new one.

Applying the Arm Cuff
1. Face the palm of the left arm upward,
and wrap the cuff around the upper arm,
about 1-2 cm above the inside of the
elbow.
A range where the INDEX mark can be
overlapped on the RANGE mark shows
a proper fit range for the cuff.
2. Place the cuff on the upper arm so that
the mark is overlapped on the artery.
3. Wrap while keeping the looseness with
the cuff around the upper arm so that it
allows the one or two fingers to insert
between the cuff and arm.
