2. Taking a Measurement

1. Ensure you are relaxed and have not consumed caffeine or exercised recently.
2. Wrap the cuff snugly around your wrist, ensuring it is positioned correctly as indicated by the device.
3. Press the START button. The device will automatically inflate the cuff.
4. The Comfort+ technology regulates pressure during inflation for a faster and more comfortable measurement.
5. The device will display your systolic, diastolic, and pulse readings.

3. MAM Technology (Microlife Average Mode)

The BP W70 BT incorporates MAM technology, which automatically takes three consecutive measurements and calculates their average. This provides a more reliable and precise blood pressure value, as recommended by international protocols for better arterial blood pressure monitoring.

4. Irregular Heartbeat (IHB) Detection

This monitor can detect an irregular heartbeat during measurement. If an irregular heartbeat is detected, an IHB symbol will appear on the display. This feature helps in early detection of potential cardiac arrhythmias, which can be a risk factor for stroke.
