HOW TO TAKE A READING

1. Press the ON/OFF button.

a) All display symbols appear for

approximately one second.

b) When the monitor becomes ready

to measure, the Heart Symbol ( )
appears on the display.

2. Press the START button and remain still.

As the cuff begins to inflate, the monitor
automatically determines your ideal
inflation level. Because this monitor
detects the pulse even during inflation,
do not move your arm and remain still
until the entire measurement completes.

• If you want to stop the inflation or

measurement, press the ON/OFF button.
The monitor will stop inflating and start
deflating rapidly, and the monitor
will turn off.

3. Inflation stops automatically

and measurement is started.

As the cuff slowly deflates, decreasing
numbers appear on the display and the
Heart Symbol (

) flashes at every

heartbeat. In rare circumstances, a higher
inflation may be necessary. In those
cases, the monitor reinflates the cuff up
to 30 mmHg higher than initial inflation
and restarts the measurement.

If you are going to use the unit’s memory function
to automatically store the measurement values, you
