. Correct measurement position

It is extremely important for the measured values, that the cuff
is at the same height of the heart.
Higher or deeper position will give deviations from the true
value.
Measurement while sitting down:
a. Place your elbow on a table or other object
(such as our carry case).
b. Use the armrest to position the arm so
that the pressure cuff is at the same
height as the heart.
c. Relax your hand with the palm facing up.
