4. Turn your left palm upward and place the edge
of the arm cuff at approximately 2 to 3 cm
above the inner side of the elbow joint. Tighten
the cuff by pulling the "Index" end of the cuff.
5. If the Index line falls within the OK range,
indicated at the edge of the cuff, this cuff is
suitable for your use. If the Index line falls out of
the OK range, you may need a special cuff for
measurement. Please visit www.lumiscope.net
