Taking a Blood Pressure

Measurement

Once the cuff is properly applied and you are seated with your feet flat on the floor you are ready to take a measurement.

Press the "SET" button and you will see a

number appear: 1, 2, or 3. These are each of the 3 memory zones/users explained on page 11. From here on, the 3 party memory capability will be referred to as "memory

zones" or "zones". Press the "SET" button to toggle between each of three memory

zones and to select the zone in which you would like to store your measurement. Then press the "START/STOP" button to begin the measurement process. The monitor will automati- cally inflate to the level that is right for you.

*If you select zone No. 1, your blood pressure will be record- ed as one of the 30 readings available for that zone. The same is true for zones 2 and 3. When taking measurements, be sure and select the correct zone number so that the mea- surement is registered to the appropriate zone.

You will feel the cuff get tighter around your arm - this is nor- mal. It should not inflate to the point of discomfort. If this occurs, the cuff is secured too tightly. Press "START/STOP" and rewrap the cuff leaving more room between your arm

and the cuff.

Taking a Blood Pressure

Measurement

Numbers will appear on the digital display. This is the nor- mal process the monitor goes through to determine your blood pressure. Don’t be alarmed if you notice the numbers quickly change, or go higher than you believe your blood pressure to be.

When your measurement is complete the monitor will deflate automatically, releasing the air pressure in the cuff.

The

entire

measurement

process should take less than a

minute. Once measurement is

complete,

your

blood pressure

and pulse measurements will be

displayed.

The

monitor will

automatically turn off after approximately one minute.

NOTE: Blood pressure constantly changes during the course of

 

a day. Occasionally high or low readings do not necessarily

 

mean your monitor is malfunctioning or that you are ill. It is

 

important to speak with your doctor to learn what your normal

 

blood pressure is and if you experience related abnormal mea-

 

surements.
