Before applying your blood pressure cuff, be sure you
have selected the appropriate size cuff:
Adult Cuff fits arm circumference:
9"—13" (23—33 cm).
Additional cuffs are available for order on the included
order form or by calling 866-326-1313.
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. Wrap the cuff snugly
around your left arm. Position the
cuff's bottom edge one inch ABOVE
the elbow joint. Position the air
tubing over the main artery (on the
inside of your arm). You should be
able to insert one finger between
your arm and cuff.
This device includes a number of additional features,
including a backlight, cuff placement alert, alarm
reminders and real-time clock; all of these features are
addressed in the full Instruction Manual included with this
device.
Taking a Measurement
Reminder, it is important to avoid smoking, eating, taking
medication, alcohol consumption or physical activity 30
minutes prior to taking a reading.
1. Position the monitor on a
flat, stable surface with
the digital display in
view. Insert the cuff tubing
connector into the port
on the left side of your
monitor. 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, Fig 1. Relax
your left hand.
2. To begin the measurement, select
the desired user to store the
measurement results —User1(U1)
or User2(U2), Fig 2.
3. The unit will briefly flash a self-test,
Fig 3, and the measurement will
begin.
4. The cuff will automatically inflate
to approximately 180mmHg; you
will see the numbers go up on the
display screen.
5. When the inflation has reached
optimum level, the display will

of the cuff decrease.

• 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.
