Wrist too high | Correct position |
Adjust the height of your wrist until the position sensor alarm beeps slowly. When the monitor senses that your arm is in the correct position, the wrist cuff will automatically start to inflate and measurement starts.
Notes:
•If your wrist is too low or too high, the position sensor alarm will emit a series of two short bleeps similar to a heartbeat. When your wrist is at the correct position, the heart symbol starts to blink and longer beep tones are emitted.
•Sit still and do not talk or move until the measurement is completed.
•Keep the monitor at heart height until the measurement is completed.
•To stop measurement, press the O/I START button at any time during measurement.
