Correct position for taking measurements lying down
• In special cases the measurement
can also be taken lying down.
• Lie on your back and relax for at

It automatically inflates the cuff slowly in order to measure your blood pres-
sure. The pressure on the display changes continuously during the time it
continues to inflate.
4. The unit inflates the cuff until sufficient pressure has built up for a measu-
rement. Then the unit slowly releases air from the cuff and carries out the
measurement.
5. When the measurement is finished, the cuff is deflated completely. The
systolic and diastolic blood pressure and the pulse value with the pulse
symbol appear on the display
flashes next to the relevant coloured bar depending on the WHO blood
pressure classification (see page 13). The measured results will be an-
nounced in the language set if the language function is switched on.

cally after a minute if no buttons are pressed.
The unit may also be switched off using the START button
The time and the date are constantly shown in the display.
The memory of your blood pressure monitor will hold up to 60 measurements
