Result: After a few seconds, the blood pressure monitor beeps and begins inflating the wrist cuff. It then slowly deflates until there is another beep, signifying that the measurement is complete. Do not move from the first beep until the last to ensure a more accurate measurement. Your systolic and diastolic pressure readings flash on the display, followed by MAP (Mean Arterial Pressure, see page 4) and pulse per minute readings every 2 seconds. The measurement is automatically stored as the first (1) entry in the memory; the last entry (30) is dropped, and all the entries in between move up one digit (e.g., 18 becomes 19, and so on).
