Setup

1. Battery Installation

The device comes with 4 x 1.5 V AAA batteries. Open the battery compartment on the back of the monitor and insert the batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-). Close the compartment securely.

2. Initial Device Configuration

Upon first use or after battery replacement, you may need to set the year, date, and time. Refer to the Quick Start Guide or the full Instruction Manual for detailed steps on navigating the device's settings using the available buttons.

3. Cuff Application

Proper cuff placement is essential for accurate readings. The universal cuff is designed to fit arm circumferences from 8.6 inches to 17.3 inches. Place the cuff on your bare upper arm, approximately 2-3 cm above the elbow joint, ensuring the air tube runs down the inside of your arm. The cuff should be snug but not overly tight, allowing two fingers to fit underneath.

Operating Instructions

1. Taking a Measurement

Sit comfortably with your back supported and feet flat on the floor. Rest your arm on a table so the cuff is at heart level. Press the power button to turn on the device.

2. Understanding Display Readings

The display shows three main values:

• 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 in beats per minute.

3. Risk Indicator

The BM54 features a color-coded risk indicator on the left side of the display. This indicator categorizes your blood pressure results based on guidelines set by the World Health Organization (WHO), allowing for quick interpretation of high or low readings.
