Blood Pressure Monitor

The Blood Pressure Monitor can be used to measure blood pressure, vein diameter, and pulse. It can also detect the presence of an arrhythmia.

Before Measurement:

• Avoid bathing, drinking alcohol, consuming caffeinated products, smoking, exercising, and eating 30 minutes before measurement.
• Rest for at least 15 minutes before measurement.
• Avoid taking measurements when stressed.
• Measurements should be taken in a quiet place. Remain still and do not talk during measurement.

To ensure consistent results:

• Measure blood pressure at the same time of day.
• Measure blood pressure from the same arm.

Setting up:

1. With the monitor off, long press the Memory button for 5 seconds to enter setup mode.
2. Use the Power button to switch between entry points and categories, and to change data. Press the Memory button to advance to the next category.
3. Setup categories include: User, Year, Date, 12/24 hour clock, Clock setup, and Speaker on/off.

Using the Blood Pressure Monitor:

1. Insert the air hose plug into the air hose port on the left side of the monitor.
2. Roll up your sleeve or ensure it is not wrapped too tightly around your arm. App-based measurements work best if the skin is not covered.
3. Put your arm through the arm cuff and tighten it. Ensure the "UP" arrow is facing up. The bottom edge of the cuff should be 1 inch above the elbow.
4. Sit relaxed with legs uncrossed and feet flat on the floor. Keep your back straight and rest your arm on a flat surface. The arm cuff should be at heart level.
5. Press the Power button. The cuff will inflate, and the monitor will display measurements. If using the BWell app, press "start measuring" simultaneously.
6. The arm cuff will deflate when measurements are ready. Remove your arm.

Using and Clearing the Memory:

The monitor automatically stores 99 measurement results for two users. Older results are deleted when new ones are added beyond the limit.

• With the monitor off, short press the Memory button to view stored measurements. Default is User 1.
• To clear memory: Select the user, turn the monitor off. Long press the Memory button (do not release when the user setup menu appears), then press the Power button when "CL" is displayed.

Precautions:

• Do not adjust medication based on measurement results. Follow your physician's prescription.
• Do not use on an injured arm or an arm undergoing medical treatment.
