Using The Monitor 

How To Take Proper Measurements 

  For the most accurate blood pressure measurement: 

  Sit comfortably at a table.   

Rest your arm on the table. 

  Relax for about five to ten minutes before measurement. 

  Place the center of the cuff at the same height as your heart. 

  Remain still and keep quiet during measurement. 

 Do not measure right after physical exercise or a bath. Rest for twenty or 

thirty minutes before taking the measurement. 

  Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time every day.

Measurement 

During measurement, it is normal for the cuff to feel very tight. (Do not be 

alarmed). 

After Measurement 

After measurement, press the START button to turn off the power. Remove 

the cuff. 

Note: The device has an automatic power shut-off function, which turns the 

power off automatically one minute after measurement.  

Allow at least ten minutes between measurements on the same person.
