6. Center tube over middle of arm.
7. Pull the end of the cuff so that it tightens
evenly around your arm. Press the hook
and loop material together to secure.
Allow room for 2 fingers to fit between
the cuff and your arm.
8. Lay your arm on a table (palm upward)
so the cuff is at the same height as your
heart. Make sure the tube is not kinked.
Note:
• The device should not be used when your arm is
wounded or injured.
• If it is not possible to fit the cuff to your left arm, it
can also be placed on your right arm. However, all
measurements should be made using the same arm.
• To use on the right arm, you must position the artery
symbol "
" over the main artery. Locate the main
artery by pressing with two fingers approximately 1"
(2 cm) above the bend of your
elbow on the inside of your
right arm. Identify where the
pulse can be felt the strongest.
This is your main artery.
