1. Wrap the cuff directly against your skin.
Do not apply over clothing. Make sure your
sleeve is not rolled up too tightly on your
arm. This may constrict the flow of
blood in your arm.
2. Place the cuff over your left wrist with your
left thumb facing upward.
3. Position the cuff leaving a clearance of approximately
1/2 to 1 inch between the cuff and the bottom of your palm.
4. Hold the bottom part of the cuff and wrap it
around the wrist so it fits comfortably and
securely around your wrist.
NOTE: Make sure the wrist cuff does not
cover the protruding part of the wrist
bone on the outside of the wrist.
5. Fold the remaining part of the wrist cuff back
out of the way.
APPLYING THE CUFF ON THE RIGHT WRIST
