4. Operating Instructions

4.1. Preparation for Measurement

For accurate readings, follow these guidelines:

• Rest: Sit quietly for at least 5 minutes before measuring.
• Position: Sit upright with your back supported. Keep your feet flat on the floor, uncrossed.
• Arm Placement: Place your arm on a table so the cuff is at heart level.
• Cuff Placement: Wrap the cuff directly on your bare upper arm, 2-3 cm (about 1 inch) above the elbow. The air tube should run down the center of your arm, over the brachial artery. Do not wrap it too tight or too loose.
• Avoid: Talking or moving during the measurement.

The device also features pulse detection.
