Blood pressure is measured and data is stored within the device. The device can store the last ninety sets of data in memory automatically. 2. Recalling Data ( Refer to page 11) When nothing is displayed, press the MEMORY button to appear the data number.
Using the Monitor Installing / Changing The Batteries 1. Remove the battery cover. 2. Remove the used batteries and insert new batteries into the battery compartment as shown, taking care that the polarities (+) and (-) are correct. 3. Replace the battery cover. Use only R6P, LR6 or AA batteries. CAUTION Insert the batteries as shown in the battery compartment. If not, the device will not work. When (LOW BATTERY mark) blinks on the display, replace all batteries with new ones.
Using the Monitor Connecting The Air Hose Insert the air connector plug into the air socket firmly. Air Socket Air Connector Plug Air Hose Connecting The AC Adapter Insert the AC adapter plug into the DC jack. Then, insert the AC adapter into an electrical outlet. DC Jack AC adapter Plug The AC adapter, the model TB-233, is sold separately. Note: When the AC adapter is pulled out, the memories are cleared. Selecting The Correct Cuff Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading.
Using the Monitor Applying The Arm Cuff 1. Wrap the cuff around the upper arm, about 1 to 2 cm above the inside of the elbow, as shown. Place the cuff directly against the skin, as clothing may cause a faint pulse and result in a measurement error. 2. Constriction of the upper arm, caused by rolling up a shirtsleeve, may prevent accurate readings.
Measurements Model UA-782 is designed to detect the pulse and to inflate the cuff to a systolic pressure level automatically. If your systolic pressure is expected to exceed 230 mmHg, read "Measurement With The Desired Systolic Pressure" on the next page. Normal Measurement 1. Place the cuff on the arm (preferably the left arm). Sit quietly during measurement. 2. Press the START button. The average blood pressures and last data number are displayed briefly.
Measurements Measurement With The Desired Systolic Pressure If your systolic pressure is expected to exceed 230 mmHg, use this procedure. At heart level 1. Place the cuff on the arm (preferably the left arm). Press and hold 2. Press and hold the START button until a number about 30 to 40 mmHg higher than your expected systolic pressure appears. 3. Release the START button to start measurement, when the desired number is reached.
About Memory The device automatically stores up to ninety blood pressure and pulse measurements in memory. Data stored in memory are assigned a data number in the order of the newest to the oldest. The oldest data displays as "n01". The M symbol in the lower left corner of the display indicates that you are viewing previous data stored in memory. Recalling Data 1. When nothing is displayed, press the MEMORY button. The data number of the most recent measurement and the data are displayed. Press 2.
What Is An Irregular Heartbeat Model UA-782 provides a blood pressure and pulse rate measurement even when an irregular heartbeat occurs. An irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that varies by 25% from the average of all heartbeats during the blood pressure measurement. It is important that you be relaxed, remain still and do not talk during measurements. Note: We recommend contacting your physician if you see this frequently.
About Blood Pressure What Is Blood Pressure? Blood pressure is the force exerted by blood against the walls of the arteries. Systolic pressure occurs when the heart contracts. Diastolic pressure occurs when the heart expands. Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). One's natural blood pressure is represented by the fundamental pressure, which is measured first thing in the morning while one is still at rest and before eating.
Take measurements at the same time every day using the procedure described in this manual to get to know your normal blood pressure. Regular readings give a more comprehensive blood pressure history. Be sure to note date and time when recording your blood pressure. Consult your doctor to interpret your blood pressure data. Troubleshooting Problem Nothing appears on the display, even when the power is turned on. The cuff does not inflate. The device does not measure. Readings are too high or too low.
Maintenance Do not open the device. It uses delicate electrical components and an intricate air unit that could be damaged. If you cannot fix the problem using the troubleshooting instructions, request service from your dealer or from the A&D service group. The A&D service group will provide technical information, spare parts and units to authorized dealers. The device was designed and manufactured for a long service life.
Useful life Device: Cuff: 5 years (when used six times a day) 2 years (when used six times a day) Accessory AC adapter The adapter is to connect the device to a power source at home. TB-233 Please contact your local A&D dealer for purchasing. The AC adapter is required to be inspected or replaced periodically.
