Viewing stored values
The device stores blood pressure values of the last measurement procedure in AUTO mode.
Press the button to reveal the average of the measurements of AUTO mode. Continue
pressing the button to review individual measurements.
Hide Cuff Pressure during deflation
– This option helps you to determine Korotkoff
K1 and K5 sound readings without digit
preference. To use the HIDE function in
MANUAL mode, push button to select
the setting of HIDE function and confirm the
selection by button and finish the setting
of MANUAL mode.
The recommended deation rate for auscultation is 2-3 mmHg per second. Do not assess K1 or K5 sound while
holding the button.
*
If HIDE in MANUAL mode is selected, the cu pressure during deation will not be displayed. The display shows "---"
during cu deation.

Taking measurement in MANUAL mode
Use a stethoscope to perform measurement.
Select the MANUAL mode if auscultatory blood pressure measurement is preferred
above oscillometric blood pressure measurement. In MANUAL mode, the device serves
as a pressure gauge. No oscillometric measurements will be taken. Systolic and diastolic
Korotkoff sounds are determined by the physician using a stethoscope placed over the
brachial artery.
Start inflation – Press the button to start cuff inflation. When the maximum inflation
pressure is reached, the device will automatically begin a linear deflation at a rate of 3
mmHg/sec as is recommended by the guidelines.
Assess the Korotkoff K1 and K5 sound with stethoscope – when pushing the
button during cuff deflation the cuff pressure at the time of pushing is temporarily
stored so that the systolic (K1) and diastolic (K5) pressures can be seen afterwards. The
device can store up to 4 pressures.
Push the button at any time to start fast deation and nish the measurement of
MANUAL mode and show the pressure you have marked. Alternatively, the device
quickly deates and shows the pressures after having pushed the button 4 times, or the
cuff pressure has reached 20mmHg during the deation cycle.
After the measurement in MANUAL mode, the device displays all marked cuff pressures
for one minute.
Re-inflate
– Push and Hold the Up button during deflation to re-inflate for as long as
the button is held up to a max of 299mmHg. Release the button to continue deflation.
Exceeding 299 mmHg will result in an immediate release of cuff pressure and a ‘HI’ Error
message.
Deflate faster
– Push and hold the button during deflation to release the pressure in
the cuff faster, at around 8 -12 mmHg/second.
