HOW TO MEASURE YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE Before taking a reading, you should sit quietly for around 10 minutes, and there should be an interval of at least 5 minutes between readings. While taking a measurement, you should stay calm and relaxed, and try not to talk. This will improve the accuracy of the readings.

PUTTING ON THE ARM CUFF Rest your left arm on a table and relax your arm. Correct cuff placement Wrap the arm cuff snugly. You should be able to fit one finger between the cuff and your arm. Correct level Make sure the cuff is at heart level.
Page 14
PROPER POSTURE contd. Turn your left palm upward and place the edge of the arm cuff at approximately 1 inch above your elbow. The cuff should be tight enough on the arm to allow the insertion of one finger between the cuff and arm.
TAKING A MEASUREMENT 1. Push either the USER 1 or USER 2 button once to START the measurement. 2.”00” will blink on the LCD. 3. About 2-3 seconds later, the pressure will be reset. Then the cuff will begin to inflate and the pressure will be displayed. 4.
Page 16
TAKING A MEASUREMENT contd. After finishing a measurement, values for systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse rate will be displayed on the LCD as shown in the diagram. The blood pressure monitor will automatically transfer your measurement to the web portal via Wi-Fi wireless network. While transmitting a reading, the data transmission symbol will blink on and off.
MAINTENANCE 1. Do not use an alcohol-based solvent or cleaning agent to clean the device. 2. Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. 3. Do not immerse the device or cuff in water. 4. Do not bend the cuff or sleeve, and do not wrap the sleeve inside-out. 5.
