QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE
1. Avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes
before taking a measurement.
2. Put your left arm through the cuff loop making sure that the
bottom edge of the cuff is approximately one-half inch above the
elbow.
3. Pull the end of the cuff so that the entire cuff is evenly tightened
around your arm and press the sewn hook material firmly against
the pile side of the cuff. Make sure that your skin will not be
pinched in the D-ring once you inflate the cuff bladder.
Immediately deflate the cuff bladder and readjust the cuff if
skin becomes pinched.
4. Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor and place your left
arm on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart.
5. Press the ON/OFF button.
6. After the Heart Symbol ( ) appears next to a zero on the digital
panel, press the START button.
7. Remain still throughout the entire reading.
8. When measurement is complete, the monitor alternately displays
your blood pressure and pulse on the digital panel and
automatically deflates the cuff.
9. Wait 2-3 minutes before taking another blood pressure
measurement. You may require more rest time between readings
depending on your individual physiological characteristics.
