Please ensure the unit is at room temperature before meas-
uring.

Attach the cuff

Place the cuff on to the bare left
upper arm. The circulation of the
arm must not be hindered by tight
clothing or similar.
The cuff must be placed on the
upper arm so that the bottom
edge is positioned 2 – 3 cm above
the elbow and over the artery. The
line points to the centre of the
palm.
Now tighten the free end of the cuff,
but make sure that it is not too
tight around the arm and close the
Velcro fastener. The cuff should be
fastened so that two fingers fit
under the cuff.
Now insert the cuff line into the
connection for the cuff connector.
Caution: The unit may only be operated with the original
cuff. The cuff is suitable for an arm circumference of 22 to
36 cm.
