Measurement in auscultation mode
In auscultation mode, this device does not measure blood pressure.
Measurement should be performed by a health care professional
using a stethoscope.
The healthcare professional uses a stethoscope to determine SYS
and DIA by means of the auscultation method.
1. Make sure the power is on.
"0" is displayed.
2. Press the [Auscultation] button.
The auscultation icon appears and the
device enters auscultation mode.
3. Press the [START/STOP] button.
Inflation starts. When the cuff is
sufficiently inflated, deflation
automatically starts.
4. At the SYS point that you determine by auscultation, press the
[Auscultation] button.
The first time you press the [Auscultation] button, the SYS value
appears.
5. At the DIA point that you determine by auscultation, press the
[Auscultation] button.
The second time you press the [Auscultation] button, the DIA value
appears and the cuff rapidly deflates.
Manual inflation in auscultation mode
If the cuff is not inflated sufficiently or you want to re-inflate, you can
inflate the cuff manually.
Hold down the [START/STOP] button during inflation or deflation to
inflate continuously.
"-" appears below the value to indicate that manual inflation is in
progress.
