To avoid damage of vessels and tissue, do not frequently measure blood pressure.
3.1 Correct Posture

Before being the measurement, please ensure you are relaxed as much as possible.
We recommend that users should rest for at least 5-minute before the measurement.

Rest your left arm on a table and relax your arm as shown below. To avoid errors,
please maintain the correct posture during the measurement

Make sure the cuff is at your heart level. When measuring blood pressure, lightly
bend your elbow while resting your arm on a table. If the level of the arm cuff is lower
than your heart, please place a cushion under your arm.

Improper posture will affect the results of the measurements, such as: loose arm cuff,
talking during measurement, body tilted, or sitting cross-legged.
