Wrap firmly with both hands, snug, and make sure to fasten with the hook and loop
fastener. For this step, place the cuff 1 ~ 2 cm (a little less than one inch) above the inside
of the elbow joint. [Figs. 7-10]
* If after wrapping, INDEX, printed on the cuff, is misaligned with RANGE, select a different, more
appropriate size cuff according to the circumference of the arm, and wrap again.
* If not wrapped with appropriate cuff, the arm might become numb, or the HEM-9000AI might not be able to
measure blood pressure correctly.
* Wrapping the cuff at an angle will have no impact on the measurements, so allow the cuff to follow the
shape of the arm.
