your left arm. Position the cuff's bottom
edge one inch ABOVE the elbow joint.

Taking the Measurement
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. Relax your left hand.
2. Press the START button to turn the
unit on; the unit will run a self-test,
Fig 1.
3. The display will show the current
memory bank in use, U1 or
U2, Fig 2. Press the MEM
button to select a different
memory bank if desired. If
no selection is made, the
unit will default to the
memory bank displayed.
The display will briefly show
a flashing arrow and '0'
before the measurement begins.
4. The cuff will automatically inflate to
approximately 190mmHg or 40
mmHg higher than the last systolic
pressure reading stored in memory.
5. When the measurement is
complete, your blood pressure
measurement and pulse will
display separately on the screen
alternating repeatedly every 2-3
Main
seconds, Fig 3. The systolic and
Artery
diastolic readings will display at
the same time.
6. Consult the included Instruction Manual for
information on interpreting your reading results.
7. The results will automatically be stored in the
selected memory up to 60 readings.
8. Select START to turn the unit off and conserve
energy and battery life. The unit will automatically
shut-off and revert to time/date mode after
approximately 1 minute.
Please Note:
• You can stop the inflation or deflation process of
the cuff at any time by pressing the START button.
• Many factors such as genetics, age, sex, altitude,
MEM
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.
