5. Measuring blood pressure

Ensure the device is at room temperature before measuring.
Attaching the cuff
Place the cuff on to the bare left
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.
Now tighten the free end of the cuff,
but make sure that it is not too tight
around the arm and close the
hook-and-loop fastener. The cuff
should be fastened so that two
fingers can fit under the cuff.
Now insert the cuff line into the
connection for the cuff connector.
Important: The unit may only be
operated with the original cuff. The
cuff is suitable for an arm circum-
ference of 22 to 42 cm.
Adopting the correct posture
• Before every measurement, relax for about five minutes.
Otherwise deviations can occur.
• You can take the measurement while sitting or lying. Al-
ways make sure that the cuff is at heart level.
