9.Remove monitor and make a note of your blood pressure and pulse rate on the chart in the back of the manual, indicating date and time of measurement. Additional logbook charts can be downloaded and printed for free at www.LifeSourceOnline.com or in Canada, www.autocontrol.com.
We advise that you record the date and time after each measurement because an accurate blood pressure history relies not on single or sporadic readings but on a pattern over time.
NOTE: Allow at least 5 minutes between measurements on the same person.
NOTE: If you have poor blood circulation in winter (especially when your hands and wrists are cold), you may not get a blood pressure measurement.
