Operating the unit
Attaching the cuff 7.
Expose the upper arm. •
2-3 cm
Push the cuff onto the arm (Fig. 1) until the lower edge of the cuff
is 2-3 cm above the crook of the arm (Fig. 2). •
When using the unit on the left arm, the air hose runs to the unit through the middle
of the crook of the arm so that the 4 cm long artery marking is automatically located
centrally above the pulse position (Fig. 3). •
When using the unit on the right arm, the cuff must be rotated to the left until the artery
marking is on the pulse position. The air hose then runs along the inside of the upper
arm. •
The cuff should be tightened to such an extent that 2 fingers can still be inserted
between arm and cuff. Tip: •
Bend your arm slightly. -
The upper arm muscle is tensioned slightly. -
This slightly increases the circumference of the arm. -
Now pull the free cuff end tight and close the Velcro fastener (Fig. 4) •

Check if the measurement arrow on the cuff is inside the „marking for arm circumference“ at the edge of the cuff. •
Lay your extended and relaxed arm with the cuff on the dining table and do not move it during the measurement; do
not talk. The palm should be facing upwards. •
Connect the cuff connector to the cuff socket on the left-hand side of the unit. Make sure the connector is fully inserted
into the unit. •
Measuring blood pressure 8.
Switch on the unit by pressing the Start/Stop button. The following display appears: •
After the unit has completed its calibration against the ambient air pressure, the cuff is
automatically inflated to approx. 180 mmHg. If that cuff pressure is not sufficient for meas-
uring the blood pressure level, the device automatically increases the cuff pressure in steps
of 30 mmHg until a sufficient cuff pressure has been reached. •
For an inflation pressure exceeding 180 mmHg the inflation process can also be controlled manually: Keep the Start/
Stop button pressed immediately after the inflation has started and release it when the cuff pressure has reached
40 mmHg above the expected maximum systolic blood pressure. The inflation stops with releasing the button. •
