Comment:
If it is not possible to fit the cuff to the left arm,
it can also be placed on the right one. However
all measurements should be made using the
same arm

5.4. Measuring procedure

After the cuff has been appropriately positioned the measurement
can begin:
a) Press the O/I + MEMORY-button, – the pump begins to inflate
the cuff. In the display, the increasing cuff-pressure is conti-
nually displayed.
b) After reaching the inflation pressure, the pump stops and the
pressure slowly falls away. The cuff-pressure (large charac-
ters) is displayed during the measurement.
c) When the device has detected the pulse, the heart symbol in
the display begins to blink and a peep tone is audible for every
pulse beat.
d) When the measurement has been
concluded, a long peep tone sounds.
The measured systolic and diastolic
bloodpressure values as well as the
pulse frequency are now displayed.
e) The measurement results are display-
ed, until you switch the device off. If no
button is pressed for 5 minutes, the
device switches automatically off, to
save the batteries.
5.5. Memory – displaying the last measurement
The last 99 measured results are stored in the device until
a new measurement is carried out or the batteries are
removed. You can call up the stored values by pressing
the MEMORY button. To clear the memory, please push
the MEMORY-button approximately 3 seconds until CL
appears in the display.

5.6. Discontinuing a measurement

If it is necessary to interrupt a blood pressure measurement for any
reason (e.g the patient feels unwell), the O/I button can be pressed
at any time. The device then immediately lowers the cuff-pressure
automatically.
