4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Taking a Blood Pressure Measurement
- Prepare for Measurement: Sit comfortably with your back supported and feet flat on the floor. Rest your arm on a table, ensuring the cuff is at heart level. Remain still and avoid talking during the measurement.
- Apply the Cuff: Wrap the adjustable arm cuff around your upper arm, approximately 1-2 cm (0.4-0.8 inches) above your elbow. Ensure it is snug but not too tight; you should be able to fit one or two fingers between the cuff and your skin. The cuff fits arm sizes ranging from 8.6 to 16.5 inches (22-42 cm).
- Start Measurement: Short press the Start/Stop button on the monitor. The device will begin inflating the cuff and taking the measurement. If connected to the ViHealth app, the measurement process and results will also be displayed on your phone.
- View Results: Once the measurement is complete, your systolic (SYS) and diastolic (DIA) blood pressure readings, along with your pulse rate, will be displayed on the monitor's OLED screen and uploaded to the app.

To view previous ECG measurements, press and hold the menu button for 2 seconds. You can navigate through stored readings using the menu button.
