How UA-705 Works

LifeSource blood pressure monitors are easy to use, accurate
®
and digitally display full measurement readouts. Our technology is
based on the "oscillometric method" – a noninvasive blood pressure
determination. The term "oscillation" refers to any measure of vibrations
caused by the arterial pulse. Our monitor examines the pulsatile
pressure generated by the arterial wall as it expands and contracts
against the cuff with each heartbeat.
The cuff is inflated until the artery is fully blocked. The inflation speed
is maximized and the pressure level is optimized by the device. The
monitor takes measurements while the cuff is both inflating and
deflating. This results in a faster measurement providing greater
comfort to the user.

Before You Start

You must install 1 type AA (1.5 volt) battery and attach the cuff to the
monitor before using it (alkaline batteries recommended). To install
battery (or replace it if the "Low Battery" symbol appears on display),
proceed as follows:
1. Remove battery cover by gently
pushing down on handle and pulling
cover off monitor.
2. Place the battery in compartment with
positive (+) and negative (–) terminals
matching those indicated in the
compartment. Be sure battery makes
contact with compartment terminals.
3. Replace cover by sliding it into the
compartment and gently pressing into place.
NOTE: Rechargeable batteries will not work with this monitor
