b. Place a bare arm through the cuff and position the cuff 1/2"(1-2cm) above the elbow joint.
c. Tighten the cuff by pulling it towards your body, securing it closed with the Velcro fastener.

middle of your arm so that it is aligned with your middle finger.

the middle of your arm so that it is aligned with your middle finger.
e. The cuff should fit comfortably, yet snugly around your arm. You should be able to insert one
finger between your arm and the cuff.

Specifications section of this manual.
2. Measure on the same arm each time.
