9 Measuring your bloodpressure

9.1Posture

1. Relax your entire body, especially the area between your elbow and fingers. Place your elbow on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart.

Your heart is located slightly below your arm pit.

2.If the cuff is not at the same level as your heart or if you can not keep your arm completely still throughout the reading, use a soft object such as folded towel to support your arm.

3.Turn your palm upwards. Sit upright in a chair, and take 5-6 deep breaths. Avoid leaning back during measurement.

9.2Important

•This monitor automatically switches off 3 minutes after the last key operation.

•To interrupt the measurement, simply press ‘POWER’. The cuff will deflate.

•During the measurement, do not talk or move your arm or hand muscles.
