How to Take a Reading
Be sure to read “Before Measurement” and “How to Apply the Arm Cuff” before taking a reading.
1.Press the ON/OFF button.
a)All display symbols appear for approximately one second. This is the initial LCD test.
b)The display symbols disappear and the Deflation
Indication symbol ( 
) starts to flash.
c)When the monitor completes the necessary prepa-
rations before measurement, the Heart symbol ( 
) appears in the screen.
NOTE: Wait for the Heart symbol ( 
) before taking a mea- surement.
2.By pressing the START button the unit automatically inflates the cuff to 170 mmHg.
a)If during your measurement the monitor determines that a higher pressure value is required, it will momentarily stop deflation and automatically increase the pressure value by 40 mmHg.
b)To set inflation level manually higher than 170 mmHg, press and hold the START button until the desired pressure value is reached. Do not inflate higher than 280 mmHg.
3.When the correct pressure value is reached, the cuff starts to deflate automatically. As the cuff deflates, decreasing numbers appear on the display. The Heart symbol ( 
) flashes at every heartbeat.
4.When the measurement is com-
plete, the Heart symbol ( 
) stops flashing and your blood pressure and pulse rate are displayed alter- nately. Results will be displayed until you turn the unit off. The unit will automatically shut off in approx- imately 5 minutes.
