HOW UA-767 PLUS 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.
You must install 4 type AA (1.5 volt) batteries, or use the AC
Adapter (see page E-11 for using the Monitor with AC
Adapter) and attach the cuff to the monitor before using it.
To install batteries (or replace them if the "Low Battery"
symbol appears on display), proceed
1.
Remove battery compartment cover
by gently pushing down on arrow
and sliding cover forward.
2. Put in top row of batteries first. Place
the batteries in compartment with
positive (+) and negative (–) terminals
matching those indicated in the compartment. Be sure
batteries make contact with compartment terminals.
3. Replace cover by sliding it into the compartment and
gently pressing into place.

SELECTING THE CORRECT CUFF SIZE

Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate
reading. A cuff that is too large will produce a reading that is
lower than the correct blood pressure; a cuff that is too small
will produce a reading that is higher than the correct blood
pressure. With your arm hanging at the side of your body,
measure the circumference of your upper arm at the midpoint
between the shoulder and elbow.
ARM SIZE
5.1" - 7.9" (13-20cm)
7.5" - 12.2" (19-31cm)
11.8" - 17.7" (30-45cm)
To attach cuff, insert air connector at end of cuff tube into the
air socket on the left side of the monitor.
Cuff Size Indicator On The Cuff
Our cuff has an indicator which tells you whether you are
using the correct cuff size or not. Place the cuff on your arm
(see Page E-6 to learn how to put the cuff on correctly) and if
the Index Mark
using the correct cuff size. If the Index points outside of the
Proper Fit Range, contact A&D Medical at 1-888-726-9966
(in Canada - 1-800-463-5414) for a cuff replacement at an
