6. Measuring Blood Pressure

The blood pressure monitor needs to be at room temperature
when measuring. Measurements can be performed on either arm.
Positioning the Cuff
1. Place the cuff round your bare left
upper arm 1–1½ in (2-3 cm) above
the bend of the elbow and above
the artery, with the Air Tube in line
with the center of the palm. Ensure
blood circulation is not restricted
by tight clothing or other objects.
2. Fasten the cuff, making sure it is not
too tight around your arm. You
should be able to fit two fingers
under the cuff after it is in place. The
cuff is suitable for you if the index
mark ( ) is within the OK range on
the cuff when it is in place.
3. Insert the Air Tube Connector into the
Air Tube Port. Blood pressure can
vary between the right and left arm,
which may mean that the measured
blood pressure values are different.
Always perform the measurement on
the same arm. If the values between
the two arms are significantly
different, please consult your doctor
to determine which arm should be
used for the measurement.
CAUTION: Only use genuine Caring Mill cuffs with this device.
The included cuff is suitable for an arm circumference of 8.7-
16.5 inches (22 to 42 cm). For arm circumferences outside this
range, contact customer service.
Correct Posture
• Rest for at least five minutes before each measurement.
• Perform the measurement either sitting or lying down.
Always make sure that the cuff is level with your heart.
• To perform a measurement, sit comfortably with your arms
and back supported. Do not cross your legs and place your
feet flat on the floor.
• Keep still during the measurement and do not talk.
