e) Secure the cuff with the Velcro closer in such a way
that it lies comfortably and is not too tight. Lay arm
on the table (palm upwards) so that the cuff is at
e
the same height as the heart. Make sure that the
tube is not kinked.
Comment:
If it is not possible to fit the cuff to the left arm, it can also
be placed on the right one. However all measurements
should be made using the same arm.
5.4. Measuring procedure
After the cuff has been appropriately positioned the measurement can begin:
a) Press the pump begins to inflate the cuff. In the
display, the increasing cuff-pressure is continually displayed.
b) After reaching the inflation pressure, the pump stops and
e
the pressure slowly falls away. The cuff-pressure (large
characters) is displayed during the measurement.
s
c) When the device has detected the pulse, the heart symbol
in the display begins to blink and a beep tone is audible
for every pulse beat.
d) When the measurement has been concluded, a long beep
tone sounds. The measured systolic and diastolic blood-
pressure values as well as the pulse frequency are now
displayed.
e) The appearance of the IHB Symbol means that a certain
pulse irregularity was detected during the measurement.
Please refer to item 2.4. of this manual and consult your doctor
with the related information.
f) The measurement results are displayed, until you switch
the device off. If no button is pressed for 5 minutes, the
device switches off automatically, to save the batteries.
5.5. Memory – displaying the last measurement
The measured results are stored in the instrument
until a new measurement is carried out or the
batteries are removed. You can call up the stored
values at any time by pressing the button
for at least 3 seconds.
