Before applying the cuff, please check that the
circumference of your upper arm is within the
range specified on the cuff. An incorrect cuff
size could result in inaccurate readings.
• Expose your upper arm.
• Push the cuff onto the arm until the lower
edge of the cuff is 2-3 cm above the crook
of the arm (Figure 1, Figure 2).
• When placed on the left arm, the air hose
runs down the middle of the crook of the
arm to the device. This automatically po-
sitions the 4 cm long artery marking cen-
trally above the pulse position (Figure 3).
• The cuff should not be too tight. You should be able to insert two
fingers between the arm and the cuff. Tip:
• Now pull the free end of the cuff tight and
close the Velcro fastener (Figure 5).
• Check that the measurement arrow on the
cuff is within the “Marking for arm circumference“ on the cuff edge
(Figure 6).
• Connect the plug of the cuff to the cuff
connection on the left-hand side of the
device. Ensure that the plug is fully insert-
ed into the device.
• Place the arm with the cuff on a table
so that it is loosely stretched out and hold it very still during the
measurement, do not talk. The palm of your hand should be facing
upwards.
- Angle the arm slightly
- Slightly tense the upper arm muscle
- This increases the circumference of the
arm slightly
• When placed 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 inner side of the
upper arm (Figure 4).
