TAKING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE READING
7.
The cuff will automatically begin to inflate.
8.
Once the cuff inflates to the appropriate pressure level, the
measurement will begin.
9.
The unit will begin to automatically deflate and the numbers
appearing on the display will decrease.
10. When all the air is deflated, the measurement is complete. The
unit will display your blood pressure (systolic and diastolic)
measurements and pulse rate, Fig. 5. With the voice function
ON, the monitor will say the measurement with the language you
selected according to the classification standard of WHO (World
Health Organization). Record your readings in a chart.
11. Your measurements will automatically be saved in memory.
12. Press the POWER button to turn the power OFF, or the unit will automatically shut
OFF after approximately 3 minutes.
NOTE: The measurement can be stopped at anytime by pressing the POWER button.
NOTE: The default setting of this monitor is to inflate the cuff to approximately 190
mmHg. After three readings, the cuff will inflate to approximately 40 mmHg higher than
the average of the last three systolic test reading averages stored in memory. If the
system detects that the cuff needs additional pressure, it will automatically re-inflate to
approximately 40 mmHg higher than the last pressure level.
