4. Quick Reference Guide

If you are using this device for the first time, please read carefully chapter 3 of this instruction manual. To help ensure a reliable reading, avoid eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, or exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement.

Note: Remove any tight-fitting clothing from your upper arm.

1.Sit on a chair with your

feet flat on the floor and place your arm on a table so that the arm cuff will be at the same level as your heart.

2.Apply the arm cuff to your upper arm. The marker should be centred on the inside of your arm and point down the inside of the arm, so that the air tube runs down the inside of your forearm and is in line with your middle finger.

3.Secure the cuff around your arm using the fabric fastener strip.

4.Press the O/I START button.

When measurement is complete, the monitor displays your blood pressure and pulse rate, and automatically deflates the

cuff.

Note: Always wait at least 2-3 minutes before taking another blood pressure measurement.
