1. Unpack: Carefully remove the cuff and air tube from its packaging.
2. Connect Air Tube: Insert the air plug of the cuff's air tube firmly into the air jack of your Omron Blood Pressure Monitor. Ensure a secure connection.
3. Check Compatibility: Verify that your blood pressure monitor is compatible with the Omron Small Cuff (Model CS24). This cuff is generally compatible with most Omron BP units, excluding the M7 and MIT Elite ranges.

5. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps to properly apply the cuff for a blood pressure measurement:

1. Prepare for Measurement: Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Rest your arm on a table so the cuff will be at heart level.
2. Apply the Cuff: Wrap the cuff around your upper arm, approximately 1-2 cm above your elbow. The air tube should run down the inside of your arm.
3. Secure the Cuff: Pull the end of the cuff so it is snug around your arm. Secure it with the hook-and-loop fastener. Ensure there is enough space to insert two fingers between the cuff and your arm.
4. Position Arm: Ensure your arm is relaxed and supported. The cuff should be at the same level as your heart.
5. Start Measurement: Follow the instructions provided with your Omron Blood Pressure Monitor to begin the measurement process.
6. Remove Cuff: Once the measurement is complete, remove the cuff from your arm.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the cuff with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, use a cloth lightly dampened with water and mild soap, then wipe dry. Do not wash the cuff in a washing machine or immerse it in water.
• Storage: Store the cuff in a clean, dry place, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and humidity. Avoid folding the air tube tightly.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the cuff and air tube for any signs of damage, such as cracks or tears. If damage is found, discontinue use and replace the cuff.

7. Troubleshooting

• Inaccurate Readings: Ensure the cuff is correctly sized for your arm (17-22 cm) and applied snugly. Verify the air tube is securely connected to the monitor.
• Cuff Not Inflating: Check that the air tube is firmly connected to both the cuff and the monitor. Ensure there are no kinks or blockages in the air tube.
• Cuff Leaks Air: Inspect the cuff and air tube for any visible damage. If a leak is detected, the cuff may need to be replaced.
• Cuff Does Not Fit: If your arm circumference is outside the 17-22 cm range, this small cuff is not suitable. Obtain a cuff that matches your arm size for accurate measurements.
