Cuff Placement
The cuff should be placed on the left upper arm approximately 2cm above the elbow so that the
forearm can move. Position the red flap (indicating the position of microphone) on the inside of the
arm. The pressure tube points towards the shoulder. Tape can be used to secure the tubing to the
body if required. Place the device in the pouch and secure with the pouch straps. Wear a t-shirt over
the tubing to help secure the tubing in position.
