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.

The AccuFit™ Extra Large Cuff is designed to accommodate larger
arm sizes measuring from 16.5" - 23.6" (45-60 cm). This cuff is con-
toured to provide you with a quick and comfortable fit. To place the
cuff on properly, please read the section "Taking Your Blood Pressure"
(see pg. E-8).
After installing the batteries, you must attach the blood pressure cuff
to the monitor. To do so, insert the Air Connector Plug of the blood
pressure cuff into the Air Socket of the monitor firmly.
notE: Be sure to differentiate the Air Socket from the AC Adapter jack. The Air
Connector Plug will only securely fit into the correct jack.
