Measurements
Model UA-854 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 START button
illuminates in orange in the morning (AM)
and blue in the afternoon (PM).
0 (zero) is displayed blinking 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, on the left edge of the
display, 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
(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 to return to the clock display. Or the device
returns to the clock display automatically one minute after measurement.
Note: Allow at least three minutes between measurements on the same
person.
