5. Measuring blood pressure
Positioning cuff
• Bare your left wrist, making sure that the circulation in the
arm is not restricted by any clothes etc. that are too tight.
Position the cuff on the inside of your wrist.
• Fasten the cuff with the Velcro fastening so that the upper
edge of the monitor is positioned approx. 1 cm below the
ball of your thumb.
• The cuff has to be fitted tightly around the wrist but should
not constrict it.
Correct posture
• Rest for approx. 5 minutes before each measurement.
Other wise there may be divergences.
• You can perform the measurement
while sitting or lying. To carry out a
blood pressure measurement, make
sure you are sitting comfortably with
your arms and back leaning on some-
thing. Do not cross your legs. Place
your feet flat on the ground. Make sure to rest your arm
and move it. Always make sure that the cuff is at heart
level. Otherwise significant deviations can occur. Relax
your arm and the palm of your hand.
• In order not to distort the result, it is important to keep still
during the measurement and not talk.
Performing the blood pressure measurement
• As described above, attach the cuff and adopt the posture
in which you want to perform the measurement.
• Start the blood pressure monitor with the on/off button
.
The most recently used user memory (
,
or
)
appears. To change the user memory, press the function
button
SET
.
• Now start the measurement by holding the on/off button
.
• Following the display check, during which all numbers light
up, the cuff inflates automatically. Whilst the cuff is pumping
up, the device already calculates measurements for estimat-
ing the necessary pump pressure. If this pressure is insuffi-
cient, the device automatically pumps more pressure.
