TAKING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE

5.Press the START button. As the cuff pressurizes, measurement will begin and the Cuff Inflation Meter will show on the display screen. It is normal for the cuff to feel very tight.

NOTE: If an appropriate pressure is not obtained, the device automatically starts to inflate again.

NOTE: If you wish to stop inflation at any time, press the START button again.

6.When the inflation is complete, the deflation starts automatically and the ❤ blinks, indicating that the measurement is in progress. Once the pulse is detected, the symbol flashes with each pulse beat.

NOTE: If an appropriate pressure is not obtained, the device automatically starts to inflate again.

Now you are ready. Follow these simple steps:

1.Sit comfortably with your left arm resting on a flat surface so that the center of your upper arm is at the same height as your heart.

7.When the measurement is complete, the systolic

	and diastolic pressure readings and pulse rate	SYSTOLIC
	are displayed.
	The cuff deflates and the monitor automatically	DIASTOLIC
	shuts off after 60 seconds, or you can turn it off	PULSE
	by pressing the START button.	PULSE

2.Lay left arm on the table, palm up and thread

cuff end through metal loop, smooth side against arm. Then position the tube off-center toward the inner side of arm in line with the little finger.

3.Pull the end of the cuff to tighten it, fold back the extra

material, and fasten securely. The cuff should be snug but not too tight. You should be able to insert two fingers between the cuff and your arm.

IMPORTANT: Measure pressure at the same time each day.

4. Confirm that the index points within the proper fit range.

8.The reading is then stored into memory. See page E-10 for more details about the memory function.

9.Remove cuff 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 measure- ment. 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.
