Positioning the Cuff

1. Remove all accessories (watch, bracelet, etc) from your left wrist.
If your physician has diagnosed you with poor circulation in your
left wrist, use your right wrist.
2. Roll or push up your sleeve to expose the skin.
3. Apply the cuff to your left wrist with your palm facing up.
4. Position the edge of the cuff about 1-2 cm.
5. Fasten the wrist cuff around your wrist, leaving no extra room
between the cuff and your skin. If the cuff is too loose, the
measurement will not be accurate.
6. Patients with Hypertension:
The middle of the cuff should be at the level of the right atrium
of the heart; Before starting measurement, please sit comfortably
with legs uncrossed, feet flat on the floor, back and arm supported.
• Resting for 5 minutes before measuring.
• Wait at least 3 minutes between measurements. This allows your
blood circulation to recover.
• For a meaningful comparison, try to measure under similar conditions.
For example, take daily measurements at approximately the same
time, on the same wrist, or as directed by a physician.
Irregular Heartbeat Detector
This Blood Pressure Monitor is equipped with an intelligent function
of Irregular Heartbeat (IHB) Detector. During each measurement,
this equipment records the heartbeat intervals and works out the
standard deviation. If the calculated value is larger than or equal to
15, this equipment will light up the IHB symbol on the screen when
displaying the measuring result.
CAUTION
The appearance of the IHB icon indicates that a pulse irregularity consistent
with an irregular heartbeat was detected during measurement. Usually
this is NOT a cause for concern. However, if the symbol appears often, we
recommend you seek medical advice. Please note that the device does not
replace a cardiac examination, but serves to detect pulse irregularities at an
early stage.
