TAKING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE

MEASUREMENT USING TRICHECK

5.Press the START button. All of the display segments are displayed. Zero (0) is displayed blinking briefly. The display changes, as indicated in the figure at the right, as the measurement begins. The cuff starts to inflate. It is normal for the cuff to feel very tight. A pressure bar indicator is displayed, on the left edge of the display, during the inflation.

Note: If you wish to stop inflation at any time, press the START button again.

6.When inflation is complete, deflation starts automatically and blinks, indicating that the measurement is in progress. Once the pulse is detected, the mark blinks with each pulse beat.

Note: If an appropriate pressure is not obtained, the device starts to inflate again automatically. To avoid re-inflation, see “Measurement with the SET Pressure” on the next page.

7.When the measurement is complete, the systolic and diastolic pressure readings and pulse

rate are displayed. The device announces the measurement results. The cuff exhausts the remaining air and deflates completely.

8.Press the START button to turn the device off. After one minute of non-operation, the device will turn off automatically.

9.The reading is then stored into memory. See page E-18 for more details about the memory function.

1.Press the START button.

All of the display segments are displayed. Zero (0) is displayed blinking briefly and the first measurement starts.

2.When the measurement is complete, the systolic and diastolic pressure readings and pulse rate are displayed, then a one-minute countdown starts for the second measurement.

3.After one minute, the second measurement starts.

4.When the measurement is complete, the average readings of the first and second measurements are displayed, then a one-minute countdown starts for the third measurement.

5.After one minute, the third measurement starts.

6.When the measurement is complete, the average readings of the three measurements are displayed and stored in memory.

Notes:

During the measurement, the TriCheck symbol is displayed.

To cancel the measurement, press the START button. In this case, no data is stored in memory.

10.Remove cuff and make a note of blood pressure and pulse rate on the chart in the back of this manual, indicating date and time of measurement. Additional logbook charts can be downloaded and printed for free at www.andmedical.com or in Canada at www.autocontrol.com. We advise that you record the date and time after each measurement becaue an accurate blood pressure history relies not on single or sporadic readings, but on a pattern over time.

When the cuff fit error symbol appears during the first measurement, cancel the measurement, reapply the cuff correctly and start a new measurement.

After measurement, the average data of the three measurements is stored in memory. No data will be stored, when canceling the measurements, or before completion of the third measurement.
