POSITIONING THE WRIST CUFF

It is important to properly position the wrist cuff to ensure that you receive an accurate reading.

2.Roll or push up your sleeve to expose the skin.

3.Apply the cuff to your left wrist with your palm facing up.

4.Position the edge of the cuff about 0.4 inches (1cm) from the bottom of your palm.

5.Fasten the wrist cuff around your wrist, leaving no extra room between the cuff and your skin. If the cuff is too loose, the measurement will not be accurate.
