3.Using the Unit

Notes:
• Correct posture during measurement is necessary to get

accurate results.

• You should also try to measure your blood pressure at the

same time each day. (Within 1 hour after waking up is

recommended.)

Incorrect Posture

These situations could lead to higher blood pressure values due to

strain or the arm cuff being lower than the heart.

If the arm cuff is at a lower position than your heart use cushions

etc., to adjust the height of your arm.

• Arched back (leaning

forwards)

• Sitting cross-legged

• Sitting on a sofa or at a low

table so that you tend to lean

forward
