Operating Instructions
Taking a Measurement
- Wrap the cuff: Wrap the arm cuff around your bare left upper arm, approximately 2-3 cm above the elbow joint. Ensure the air tube runs down the center of your arm. The cuff should be snug but not too tight; you should be able to insert two fingers between the cuff and your arm.
- Position your arm: Sit comfortably with your feet flat on the floor. Rest your arm on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart.
- Start measurement: Press the "Start/Stop" button. The cuff will inflate automatically, and the measurement will begin. Remain still and do not talk during the measurement.
- Read results: Once the measurement is complete, the systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse rate will be displayed on the screen. The device will automatically store the reading.
- Power off: The device will automatically power off after three minutes of inactivity to conserve energy. You can also manually turn it off by pressing the "Start/Stop" button again.
