GENERAL REMARKS

General remarks on blood pressure and blood pressure measurement

1.To deflate the cuff quickly, press the “START/STOP” switch.

2.Before applying your blood pressure cuff, be sure you have selected the appropriate size cuff:

Cuff (model: SCN-003) fits arm circumference: 22-32 cm [OPTION]

Large Cuff (model: SCL-005) fits arm circumference: 32-42 cm

3.When attaching the cuff, adjust the position of the cuff so that the blue marker is located in the center of your arm and the hem of the cuff is 1-2 cm for Cuff / 2-3 cm for Large Cuff above your elbow.

4.The monitor is not intended to be a diagnostic device, because it is intended for home use.

5.Self measurement is not therapy! In no event should you change the dosage of your medication prescribed by your physician.

6.As preparation for measuring your blood pressure, you should urinate and then remain relatively still for 10 to 15 minutes prior to measurement.

7.Exercising, eating, drinking, smoking, etc., prior to measurement may affect the results.

8.Your blood pressure varies constantly throughout the day. Measurements should be taken regularly at the same time each day.

9.DO NOT place too much emphasis on the results of one measurement. Keep a continuing record of your blood pressure variations. A complete picture can only be obtained from a large number of readings.

10.Emotional stress tends to cause your blood pressure to rise.

To obtain correct blood pressure measurements

1.Take five or six deep breaths and then relax before measuring your blood pressure. If you are tense when taking the measurement, you will not get a valid reading.

2.Your blood pressure will be elevated if you are anxious or irritated, suffering from lack of sleep or constipation, or have just taken some exercise or eaten a meal.

3.Wrap the cuff around your arm and tighten it so that one finger can be inserted

between the cuff and arm. ( See page 12, 13)

4.DO NOT measure your blood pressure after bathing or drinking.

5.If you feel the need to urinate, do so before measuring your blood pressure.

6.Measure your blood pressure where the room temperature is around 20°C. DO NOT measure your blood pressure when it is too cold (below 10°C) or too hot (above 40°C) in the room.

7.DO NOT try to measure your blood pressure immediately after drinking coffee or tea or after smoking.
