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.
Then the display changes, as indicated in the
figure at the right, as the measurement begins.
The cuff starts to inflate. It is normal for the cuff
to feel very tight.
A pressure bar indicator is displayed, as in the
figure at the right, during inflation.
Note: If you wish to stop inflation at any time, press
the
START button again.
3. When inflation is complete, deflation starts
automatically and the
(heart mark) blinks,
indicating that the measurement is in progress.
Once the pulse is detected, the mark blinks with
each pulse beat.
Note: If an appropriate pressure is not
obtained, the device starts to inflate
again automatically.
4. When the measurement is complete, the
systolic and diastolic pressure readings
and pulse rate are displayed. The cuff
exhausts the remaining air and deflates
completely.
5. Press the START button again to turn
off the power.
Note: Model UA-782 is provided with an automatic power shut-off function.
Allow at least three minutes between measurements on the same person.
