Using the Blood Pressure
Monitor
Note: Before first use, fully charge the blood
pressure monitor (see Charging the Battery,
page 21).
1.
Rest in a comfortable area for at least 5 minutes
before measuring to ensure the best results.
2.
Plug the air plug into the air port. Make sure the air
plug is completely inserted to avoid air leaking.
Note: Your upper arm should be bare or wearing
only thin material.
3.
Place the cuff on your upper left arm with the air
hose on the inside of your arm. The band should
not be wrapped too tightly (leave space to insert
about 2 fingers) and the lower edge of the cuff
should be about 0.8–1.2 in / 2–3 cm away from
your elbow.

same level as your heart. Your arms should be in a
relaxed, natural position.
6.
Press

moving or talking while measuring. When the
measuring is finished, the results will display.
