4. Quick Reference Guide

Use this as a quick reference guide only. If you are using this
device for the first time, please read carefully Chapter 3 of this
Instruction Manual.
Avoid eating, drinking, smoking, or exercising for at least 30
minutes before taking a measurement. You should also try to
measure your blood pressure at the same time each day. It is
recommended that you check your blood pressure at least twice
a day, in the morning before breakfast and in the evening before
going to bed.
Measurement should be taken in a quiet place and you should
be in a relaxed, seated position.
1.
Align the wrist cuff with the level
of your heart and gently support
your left arm with your right hand.
Do not place your right hand on
the cuff itself.
2.
Press the O/I START button.
Remain quiet, sit still and do not
talk during the measurement.
Notes:
• Always wait at least 2-3 minutes
before taking another blood
pressure measurement.
You may require more rest time between measurements
depending on your individual physiological
characteristics.
• Only use the R2 to measure your own blood pressure to
avoid confusion as the results of measurements are
stored in memory.
• Always wrap the wrist cuff around your wrist before
starting to take a measurement.
• Always measure your blood pressure on the same wrist.
