HOW UA-767 PLUS WORKS
LifeSource
blood pressure monitors are easy to use, accurate and digitally
®
display full measurement readouts. Our technology is based on the "oscillo-
metric method" – a noninvasive blood pressure determination. The term
"oscillation" refers to any measure of vibrations caused by the arterial pulse.
Our monitor examines the pulsatile pressure generated by the arterial wall as
it expands and contracts against the cuff with each heartbeat.
The cuff is inflated until the artery is fully blocked. The inflation speed is
maximized and the pressure level is optimized by the device. The monitor
takes measurements while the cuff is both inflating and deflating. This results
in a faster measurement providing greater comfort to the user.
BEFORE YOU START
You must install 4 type AA (1.5 volt) batteries (alkaline batteries recommended),
or use the AC Adapter (see page E-11 for using the Monitor with AC Adapter)
and attach the cuff to the monitor before using it. To install batteries (or replace
them if the "Low Battery" symbol appears on display), proceed as follows:
1.
Remove battery compartment cover by gently pushing down on arrow
and sliding cover forward.
.
2
Put in bottom row of batteries first. Place the
batteries in compartment with positive (+) and
negative (–) terminals matching those indicat-
ed in the compartment. Be sure batteries make
contact with compartment terminals.
.
3
Replace cover by sliding it into the compart-
ment and gently pressing into place.
NOTE: Rechargeable batteries will not work
with this monitor.

Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading. A cuff that is
too large will produce a reading that is lower than the correct blood pressure; a
cuff that is too small will produce a reading that is higher than the correct
blood pressure. With your arm hanging at the side of your body, measure the
circumference of your upper arm at the midpoint between the shoulder and elbow.
Our cuff has an indicator which tells you whether you are using the correct
cuff size or not. Place the cuff on your arm (see Page E-6 to learn how to put
the cuff on correctly) and if the Index Mark
Range, you are using the correct cuff size. If the Index points outside of the
Proper Fit Range, contact A&D Medical at 1-888-726-9966 for more
information on where to obtain a cuff replacement.
The UA-767 Plus monitor has a built-in clock that gives you the
time and date and can tell you when a blood pressure reading stored in memory
was taken. We recommend that you adjust the clock prior to use. To adjust the
clock, follow these simple steps:
