LifeSource UA-789 manual SELECTING THE CORRECT CUFF Size, Attaching the cuff to the monitor

SELECTING THE CORRECT CUFF SIZE

Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading. A cuff that is too large will produce a reading that is lower than the correct blood pressure; a cuff that is too small will produce a reading that is higher than the correct blood pressure. With your arm hanging at the side of your body, measure the circumference of your upper arm at the midpoint between the shoulder and elbow.

The AccuFit™ Extra Large Cuff is designed to accommodate larger arm sizes measuring from 16.5" - 23.6" (45-60 cm). This cuff is con- toured to provide you with a quick and comfortable fit. To place the cuff on properly, please read the section "Taking Your Blood Pressure" (see pg. E-8).

attaching the cuff to the monitor

After installing the batteries, you must attach the blood pressure cuff to the monitor. To do so, insert the Air Connector Plug of the blood pressure cuff into the Air Socket of the monitor firmly.

NOTE: Be sure to differentiate the Air Socket from the AC Adapter Jack. The Air Connector Plug will only securely fit into the correct jack.
