HOW TO MEASURE YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE

1. Put the cuff around your arm.

1. Remove the Velcro to unroll the cuff as illustrated.

When the cuff comes off, pass it through the metal ring. The Velcro-attached side is the outer surface.

Put the cuff around your arm so that the air hose comes to the palm side.

The cuff should be put on the bare arm or over a light- weight underwear.

If you wear a heavy-weight top, please remove it. Be aware that the upper arm may be compressed resulting in incorrect measurements if you roll up sleeves.

Adjust the cuff position as that the air hose is located at the center of your arm and so that the air hose outlet

section is spaced 1 to 2 mm from the elbow joint.

Draw the end of cuff to fit it on the arm and secure with Velcro.

Carefully put the arm taking care to obtain adequate tight- ness, not too tight or loose. Adequate tightness is ob- tained when such an allowance that you can put a finger between the cuff and your arm is provided as illustrated left.

Place your arm on a table or the like so that the center of the cuff comes to the height of you heart and lightly open the palm.
