ATTACHING THE ARM CUFF
1. Wrap the arm cuff around the upper arm, about 2-3 cm above the elbow, as shown. Place
the cuff direct on the skin, as clothing may cause a faint pulse and result in a measurement
error.
2. Constriction of the upper arm, caused by rolling up a shirtsleeve, may prevent accurate
readings.
3. Secure the arm cuff with the hook-and-loop strip in such a way that it lies comfortably and
is not too tight. Lay the arm on the table (palm upwards) so that the arm cuff is at the same
height as the heart. Make sure that the tube is not kinked.
