2. The cuff must be placed
on the upper arm so
that the bottom edge is
positioned 2-3 cm above
the elbow and over the
artery. The line should
point to the centre of the
palm.
3. Close the hook-and-loop
fastener. In doing so, the
cuff should be fastened so
that two fingers fit under
the cuff.
4. Now fold the protruding
part down. Secure the
protruding part using the
additional hook-and-loop
fastener on the cuff.
5. Now insert the cuff line
into the connection for the
cuff connector.
Ensure that your arm is not pressing on the line.
Blood pressure may vary between the right and left arm,
which may mean that the measured blood pressure values are
different. Always perform the measurement on the same arm.
If the values between the two arms are significantly different,
please consult your doctor to determine which arm should be
used for the measurement.
Important: The device may only be operated with the original
cuff. The cuff is suitable for an arm circumference of 22 to
42 cm.
Adopting the correct posture
• Before the initial blood pressure measurement, always make
sure to rest for about 5 minutes! Otherwise deviations can
occur.
• You can take the measurement while sitting or lying. Always
make sure that the cuff is at heart level.
• To carry out a blood pressure measurement, make sure you
are sitting comfortably, with your arms and back leaning on
something. Do not cross your legs. Place your feet flat on the
ground.
• To avoid falsifying the measurement, it is important to remain
still during the measurement and not to speak.
• Wait at least 1 minute before taking another measurement!
