Sit on a chair. Lift your left hand slightly
palm up and place your elbow on the
table. Place the cuff at heart level by
placing the forearm case or a folded
towel (fi g.4).
Pressure measurement while lying.
Place the cuff at heart level, using a
case or a folded towel (fi g.6).
The results of measurements can vary slightly depending on the posture during the measurement. If the cuff is
below (above) in relation to the heart, the measurements will be overstated (understated).
WRAPPING THE CUFF
Fig.7
1 Put the cuff on your left arm with AIR HOSE positioned
toward your hand. (fi g.7). You may use your right upper arm for
measurement (the results of measurements can slightly).
Fig.8
2 Attach the cuff with hook and loop fastener with the lower edge
of the cuff approximately 2 to 3 cm above the inner elbow. Adjust the
position of the cuff so that AIR HOSE is over the inner part of your arm
over the brachial artery (fi g.8).
Fig.9
3 Press the surface of the cuff to make sure that the hook & loop
fastens securely (fi g.9). If the cuff is wrapped tightly or loosely,
inaccurate blood pressure readings may result.

“spiral way”, as shown in the fi gure (fi g. 10).

5 If you are wearing a shirt that might restrict circulation in your
upper arm or you roll your sleeve up over the upper arm, the blood
fl ow will be restricted, preventing accurate measurement (fi g.11).
