Pre-shaped cuffs are optionally available.

AT

AK
into the cuff socket
6
as far as it will go.
If you buy a spare Microlife cuff, please remove the cuff
connector
AK
from the cuff tube
AL

the tube of the spare cuff (valid for all cuff sizes).
Selecting the user
This device allows to store the results for 2 individual users.
Select the intended user (user 1 or user 2
BN
) by pressing the
user button
5
.
Before each measurement, ensure that the correct user is
selected.
Selecting standard or MAM mode
Before each measurement, select standard (single measurement)
or MAM mode (automatic triple measurement). In MAM mode,
3 measurements are automatically taken in succession and the
result is then automatically analysed and displayed. Because the
blood pressure constantly fluctuates, a result obtained in this way
is more reliable than when a single measurement is performed.
To select MAM mode, press the MAM button
4
until the MAM-
symbol
AP
appears on the display. To change to standard mode
(single measurement), press the MAM-button again, until the
MAM-symbol disappears.
The bottom, right hand section of the display shows a 1, 2 or 3
to indicate which of the 3 measurements is currently being
taken.
There is a break of 15 seconds between the measurements.
A count down indicates the remaining time.
The individual results are not displayed. Your blood pressure
will only be displayed after all 3 measurements are taken.
Do not remove the cuff between measurements.
If one of the individual measurements was questionable, a
fourth one is automatically taken.
2. Checklist for taking a reliable measurement
Avoid activity, eating or smoking immediately before the
measurement.
Sit down on a back-supported chair and relax for 5 minutes.
Keep your feet flat on the floor and do not cross your legs.
Always measure on the same arm
(normally left). It is recom-
mended that doctors perform double arm measurements on a
patients first visit in order to determine which arm to measure in
the future. The arm with the higher blood pressure should be
measured.
Remove close-fitting garments from the upper arm. To avoid
constriction, shirt sleeves should not be rolled up - they do not
interfere with the cuff if they are laid flat.
Always ensure that the correct cuff size is used (marking on the
cuff).
Fit the cuff closely, but not too tight.
Make sure that the cuff is positioned 1-2 cm above the
elbow.
The
artery mark
on the cuff (ca.3 cm long bar) must lie over
the artery which runs down the inner side of the arm.
Support your arm so it is relaxed.
Ensure that the cuff is at the same height as your heart.
3. Taking a blood pressure measurement
1. Select standard (single measurement) or MAM mode (auto-
matic triple measurement): see details in chapter 1.»
2. Press the ON/OFF button
1
to start the measurement.
3. The cuff will now pump up automatically. Relax, do not move
and do not tense your arm muscles until the measurement
result is displayed. Breathe normally and do not talk.
4. The cuff fit check
AR
on the display indicates that the cuff is
perfectly placed. If the icon
AR
-A appears, the cuff is fitted
suboptimally, but it is still ok to measure.
5. The measurement is performed during the inflation. The infla-
tion speed may vary, this is a normal occurence.
