6.3 Taking a Measurement

1. Press the Power button to start the measurement. The cuff will automatically inflate.
2. Remain still and silent during inflation and deflation.
3. Once the measurement is complete, the systolic pressure (SYS), diastolic pressure (DIA), and pulse rate (PUL) will be displayed on the screen. The device may also announce the readings audibly.

6.4 Understanding Readings

• SYS (Systolic Pressure): The top number, indicating the pressure in your arteries when your heart beats.
• DIA (Diastolic Pressure): The bottom number, indicating the pressure in your arteries between beats.
• PUL (Pulse Rate): Your heart rate, measured in beats per minute.
• The monitor also features Irregular Heartbeat Detection, which alerts you to irregular heartbeats during measurement.
