IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT

Take your reading in a comfortable environment as measurements can be affected by hot or cold temperatures. Take your blood pressure at normal body temperature.

Do not move or talk during measurement as this can elevate readings.

Do not move or cross legs during measurement. Keep feet flat on floor.

Do not touch cuff or monitor during measurement procedure.

It is suggested that you take your measurements at the same time each day and use the same arm for consistency.

Users should wait a minimum of 5 minutes before taking additional measurements. More time may be necessary depending upon your physiology.

The measurement results that users receive are for reference only. If users have any blood pressure concerns, please consult a physician.

Once inflation reaches 300 mmHg, the unit will deflate automatically for safety reasons.
