5. Quick Reference Guide
Use this as a quick reference guide only. If you are using this device for the first time, please read carefully Chapter 4 of this Instruction Manual.
Avoid eating, drinking, smoking, or exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement. You should also try to measure your blood pressure at the same time each day. It is recommended that you check your blood pressure at least twice a day, once in the morning before breakfast and once in the evening.
Measurement should be taken in a quiet place and you should be in a relaxed, seated position.
1. Align the wrist cuff with the level of your heart and gently support your left arm with your right hand. Do not place your right hand on the cuff itself.
2. Press the O/I START button. Remain quiet, sit still and do not talk during the measurement.

•Do not measure your blood pressure while you are in a vehi- cle.
