4. Quick Reference Guide

Use this as a quick reference guide only. If you are using this device for the first time, please read carefully Chapter 3 of this Instruction Manual.

Avoid eating, drinking, smoking, or exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement. You should also try to measure your blood pressure at the same time each day. It is recommended that you check your blood pressure at least twice a day, in the morning before breakfast and in the evening before going to bed.

Measurement should be taken in a quiet place and you should be in a relaxed, seated position.

1. Align the wrist cuff with the level of your heart and gently support your left arm with your right hand. Do not place your right hand on the cuff itself.

2. Press the O/I START button.

Remain quiet, sit still and do not talk during the measurement.

Notes:

Always wait at least 2-3 minutes before taking another blood pressure measurement.

You may require more rest time between measurements depending on your individual physiological characteristics.

Only use the R2 to measure your own blood pressure to avoid confusion as the results of measurements are stored in memory.

Always wrap the wrist cuff around your wrist before starting to take a measurement.

Always measure your blood pressure on the same wrist.
