PRECAUTIONS

• Any strenuous activity immediately before measurement is prohibited.
• Rest 5 to 10 minutes before measuring your blood pressure.
• Always measure the same arm (normally left).
• Do not hold the head of the stethoscope with your thumb.
The thumb has a beat of its own, which may interfere with the reading.
• Do measure your blood pressure the same time each day.
• Record the date and time when measurement was made.
• Talking, eating, drinking or excessive movements are prohibited during
the measurement process.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

1. Connect the cuff, gauge, bulb and valve
as shown in the illustration.
2. Fitting the Cuff: The user should be
in a warm environment. Tight or restrictive
clothing should be removed from the arm.
Sit down at a table or desk where you can
easily rest your arm. Wrap the cuff around
the uncovered arm so the middle of the cuff
is over the brachial artery pulse. Position the cuff
approximately 2-3cm (0.8in-1.2in) above the elbow. Most cuffs have
Velcro, making it easy to keep the cuff in place. Make sure the cuff
is snug, and not be too tight. Two fingers should be easily put in

• If the systolic blood
pressure and diastolic
blood pressure fall into
different categories,
the higher value should be
taken for classification.

in the device is only a

regarded as the final
diagnosis.
