a. Pulling the cuff end through the medal loop (the cuff is
packaged like this already), turn it outward (away from your
body) and tighten it and close the Velcro fastener.
b. Place the cuff around a bare arm 1-2cm above the elbow
joint.
c. While seated, place palm upside in front of you on a flat
surface such as a desk or table. Position the air tube in the
middle of your arm in line with your middle finger.

arm. You should be able to insert one finger between your arm and the cuff.

that the appropriate cuff is used.

• Do not move your arm, body, or the monitor and do not move the rubber tube
during measurement.
