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 (relax for several minutes before taking
a measurement).
5.4. Taking a measurement
After the cuff has been appropriately positioned on the arm
and connected to the blood pressure monitor, the measurement
can begin. Remain still during your measurement, do not flex
muscles.
a) Remain seated quietly for 5 minutes before you begin the
measurement.
b) Press the POWER button to begin. After pressing the
POWER button you will hear a series of short beeps and
the pump begins to inflate the cuff. The measurement is
performed while cuff inflates. The pumping speed can vary,
which is completely normal. The increasing cuff pressure
will show on the display.
c) After reaching the inflation pressure, the pump stops and
the pressure will release. The cuff pressure is displayed
during the measurement.
d) When the device has detected your pulse, the heart symbol
in the display begins to blink.
e) When the measurement has been concluded, the measured
systolic and diastolic blood pressure values, as well as the
pulse, will be displayed.
f) The measurement results are displayed until you switch
the device off. If no button is pressed for 1 minute, the
device switches off automatically.
