Forty-Eight Measurement
Memory
When you take a measurement the monitor automatically stores it in memory space number one. As you continue to take mea- surements the monitor will push the previous measurement back one space. In other words, the value in space one will always be the most recent blood pressure measurement taken. Your moni- tor will store up to 48 measurements. To review measurements in the memory, press the "MEMORY" button, Press the "MEMORY" button in succession to review all 48 of your last blood pressure measurements.
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 measurements.
Taking Care of Your
Blood Pressure Monitor
It’s important to treat your monitor with care. Here are some basic tips:
✓Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight, high humidity, and
extreme temperature changes. ✓ Try not to drop it on the floor.
✓Do not take the monitor or the cuff apart. None of the moni- tor’s parts are fixable at home. If your monitor needs repairs see details in warranty section.
✓Keep the monitor free of dust and other materials. Avoid getting any part of the monitor or cuff extremely wet. If the monitor needs cleaning it’s best to wipe it with a cloth slightly dampened with water. Healthy Living recommends cleaning your monitor about once a month.
✓ Do not harshly fold or bend the cuff as
this may damage it on the inside.
✓Do not inflate the monitor’s cuff if it is not wrapped around your arm.
✓Always remove the cuff tube from the monitor with care.
✓For your safety, do not wrap the cuff around any other body part other than your arm.
