Important information before

using the unit

Blood pressure measurements should be interpreted by a physician or trained health professional who is familiar with one's medical history. By using the unit regularly and recording the results for the physician to interpret, one can keep the physician informed of the continuing trends in one's blood pressure.

Sit quietly for about 10 minutes. This will allow your body to return to its normal resting state.

Wrap the cuff snug around your upper arm and lay your arm on a flat surface at the same level as your heart. Your feet should be flat on the floor.

Do not move the device during the taking of a measurement; this may cause an inaccurate measurement.

Perform the measurement in a quiet environment, in a relaxed posi- tion at room temperature. For consistency, we recommend using the same arm (left arm if possible) and testing around the same time each day.
