Before applying your blood pressure cuff, be sure your
upper arm is within the appropriate range:
arm circumference 8-3/4" - 16-1/2" (22-42 cm)
A 15 minute resting period is needed to stabilize the
body prior to taking a reading. No eating, drinking or
smoking while resting.
applying the arm cuff
Remove any constrictive clothing or
jewelry that may interfere with cuff
placement. Insert your left arm into the
cuff cylinder, keeping the air hose on the
inside of the arm.
Align the hose with your brachial artery,
slightly to the right on the inside of the
bend of the elbow. The bottom edge of
the cuff should be approximately 1" above the elbow
joint; you should be able to insert one finger between
your arm and cuff.

taking the measurement
1. Rest your elbow on a solid surface
with your palm facing upward.
Elevate your arm so that the cuff
is at the same level as your heart.
Be certain that cuff is elevated to
the proper level; you may choose
to support your hand with a
folded towel or book. Relax your
left hand.
2. Press the START button to turn the unit on; the unit will run
a self-test,.
3. The cuff will automatically begin inflating. The numbers on
the display screen will begin to go up. As the heart rate is
being measured, the heart icon will also flash. When the
measurement is complete, your blood pressure and pulse
reading results will show on the display screen at the same
time.
4. Consult the included Instruction Manual for information on
interpreting your reading results.
5. The results will automatically be stored in memory up to 60
readings.
6. Select STOP button to turn the unit off and conserve energy
and battery life. The unit will automatically shut-off after
approximately 1 minute.
Please Note:
• You can stop the inflation or deflation process of
the cuff at any time by pressing the STOP button.
• Many factors such as genetics, age, sex, altitude,
physical activity, anxiety, muscular development,
certain medications or even the time of day can
influence blood pressure.
• Blood pressure varies from moment to moment;
even readings taken after proper rest periods can
vary. Home blood pressure readings may vary as
much as 10-20 points from ones taken at your
doctor's office.
• Variations in your individual readings should only
be interpreted by your physician or trained health
care professional.
• We encourage you to consult with your physician to
achieve the maximum benefit from your blood
pressure monitor.
