3.Using the Unit

Incorrect Posture

• Arched back (leaning forwards)

• Sitting cross-legged

• Sitting on a sofa or at a low table so that you tend to lean forward

These situations could lead to higher blood pressure values due to strain or the arm cuff being lower than the heart.

If the arm cuff is at a lower position than your heart use cushions etc., to adjust the height of your arm.
