APPLYING THE CUFF
1. Remove all watches, wrist jewelry, etc. prior
to attaching the wrist monitor. Clothing
sleeves should be rolled up and the cuff
should be wrapped around bare skin for
correct measurements.
2. Apply cuff to left wrist with palm facing up as
shown in Fig. A.
3. Make sure the edge of the cuff is about
1/4”~1/2” (1 cm) from the palm as shown in
Fig. B.
4. In order to ensure accurate measurements,
fasten the hook and loop strap securely
around your wrist so there is no extra space
between the cuff and the wrist. If the cuff is
not wrapped tight enough, the measurement
values will not be accurate.
5. If your physician has diagnosed you with
poor circulation in your left arm, place the cuff
around your right wrist as shown in Fig. C.
Note:
• This device should not be used when your
wrist is wounded or injured.
• If it is not possible to use the cuff on your left wrist, it can also be
used on your right wrist. However, all measurements should be
made using the same wrist.

CORRECT MEASUREMENT POSTURE
1. Place your elbow on a table so that the
cuff is at the same level as your heart as
shown in Fig. A. Relax your entire body,
especially between your elbow and fingers.
Note: Your heart is located slightly below
your armpit.
2. If the cuff is not at the same level as your
heart or if you cannot keep your arm
completely still throughout the reading,
use a soft object such as a folded towel
to support your wrist as shown in Fig. B.
3. Turn your palm upwards.
4. Sit upright in a chair with feet flat on the
floor, and take 5-6 deep breaths.
Avoid leaning back while the
measurement is being taken as shown
in Fig. C.
