ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE What Is Blood Pressure? Simply put, arterial blood pressure is the force of blood exerted against the walls of the arteries. There are two components to blood pressure: systolic and diastolic pressure. Systolic, the higher pressure, occurs during contraction of the heart. Diastolic, the lower pressure, occurs when the heart is at "rest.
corrected, may normalize blood pressure. This less common type is known as secondary hypertension. Hypertension, if left untreated, may contribute to kidney disease, heart attack, stroke, or other debilitating illnesses. The following standards for assessment of high blood pressure in adults have been established by the Joint National Committee, 2003. Remember, only a physician is qualified to interpret the readings obtained from your blood pressure monitor.
How Should I Record My Blood Pressure? With connected devices you can record your readings in your smart phone or tablet or record them manually. To use the Bluetooth connection feature, refer to section…… To record your blood pressure manually, set up a simple chart in a spiral-bound notebook as shown below.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE Before Measurement Avoid eating and smoking as well as all forms of exertion directly before measurement. These factors influence the measurement result. Find time to relax by sitting in an armchair in a quiet atmosphere for about ten minutes before taking a measurement. • Remove any garment that fits closely to your upper arm. • Always measure on the same arm (normally left).
Comment: If it is not possible to fit the cuff to your left arm, it can also be placed on your right arm. However, all measurements should be made using the same arm. Comparable blood pressure measurements always require the same conditions. Fitting the Rigid Cuff (6025N model) 1. The cuff is pre-formed for easier use. Remove tight or bulky clothing from your upper arm. 2. Wrap the cuff around your upper left arm. The rubber tube should be on the inside of your arm extending downward to your hand.
This function allows you to view the three individual measurements used to calculate the ADC Averaging Mode Technology measurement. After taking an averaging mode measurement turn unit off, hold the «MEMORY» button for three seconds. (Do not hold the button longer than seven seconds or you will delete all the readings in the memory!) Let go of the button and watch the screen. It will automatically scroll through the three measurements used in the measurement.
With the unit off, press the «MEMORY» button. Pressing the «MEMORY» button again displays the previous value. Pressing the «MEMORY» button repeatedly enables you to move from one stored value to another. If an irregular heartbeat is detected, the symbol xxxxxx is displayed including the time and the result of the measurement. NOTE: Measurements for each user are averaged and stored separately. Be certain that you are viewing the measurements for the correct user.
Err 3 Abnormal cuff pressure Err 5 Abnormal result HI Pulse or cuff pressure too high LO Pulse too low muscle tension. Repeat the measurement, keeping your arm still. An adequate pressure cannot be generated in the cuff. A leak may have occurred. Check that the cuff is correctly connected and is not too loose. Replace the batteries, if necessary. Repeat the measurement. The measuring signals are inaccurate, and no result can therefore be displayed.
Should any technical malfunctions arise in the blood pressure monitor, please contact the dealer where you bought the device or ADC. Never attempt to repair the instrument yourself! Any unauthorized opening of the instrument invalidates all warranty claims.
