Attaching The Cuff - Beurer BM 96 Cardio Mode D'emploi

• The blood pressure monitor can only be operated with batteries. Please note that data transfer and data
storage is only possible when your blood pressure monitor is supplied with power. As soon as the bat-
teries are empty, the blood pressure monitor loses the date and time.
• To conserve the batteries, the blood pressure monitor switches off automatically if you do not press
any buttons for two minutes.

Attaching the cuff

• Fundamentally, blood pressure can be measured on both arms. Certain deviations between the meas-
ured blood pressure on the right arm and left arm are due to physiological causes and completely nor-
mal. You should always perform the measurement on the arm with the highest blood pressure values.
Before starting self-measurement, consult your doctor in this regard. From this point on, always take
measurements on the same arm.
• The device may only be operated with one of the following cuffs. This should be selected in accordance
with your upper arm circumference. The fit should be checked before measurement using the index
mark described below.

Place the cuff onto the bare upper arm. The circulation of the arm must not be
hindered by tight clothing or similar.
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 here.
Guide the end of the cuff that is sticking out through the metal ring, fold it back
over the arm and close the cuff using the hook-and-loop fastener. The cuff should
be fastened tightly, but not too tightly, so that two fingers can still fit under the
closed cuff.
