A FEW SUGGESTIONS BEFORE MEASUREMENT
1. Avoid eating, smoking, and exercising
for at least 30 minutes before taking a
measurement. Also rest for at least 15
minutes before taking a reading.
2. Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid
taking measurements during stress-
ful times.
3. You would better apply the cuff on
your left upper arm.
4. Measurement should be taken in a
quiet place and you should be re-
laxed, in a seated position. Rest your
left arm on a table.
5. Remain still and do not talk during
the measurement.
6. Wait 5-10 minutes between succes-
sive measurements. Waiting allows
the engorged blood vessels to return
to normal. You may require more rest
time depending on your individual
physical conditions.
7. Please refer to the cuff circumference range in "SPECIFI-
CATIONS" to make sure that the appropriate cuff is used.

HOW TO USE THE WRIST CUFF
1. Put off your watch and any jewel from
your left hand.
2. Hold your left wrist with your palm
facing up; apply the cuff so that the
display of monitor is in easy to view
position.
3. The cuff's edge should be approxi-
mately 1/4 to 1/2 inch (1~2 cm) below
your palm.
4. Wrap the cuff snugly around your wrist, the top and bot-
tom edges of the cuff should be tightened evenly around
your wrist and lower arm.
5. When the cuff is positioned correctly, secure it in place by
pressing the pile material firmly against the sewn hook
material.
6. Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor and place your
left arm on a table with your palm facing upward. The cuff
should be at the same level as your heart.
Note: Your heart is located slight below your armpit If the cuff is not
at the same level as your heart or if you cannot keep your arm com-
pletely still throughout the measuring, use the store box or other
soft object to support your arm.
7. Remain seated quietly for two minutes before you begin
the measurement.
Notes :
- If it is not possible to fit the cuff to the left arm, it can also be placed
on the right arm
- If the cuff is dirty, clean it with a damp cloth.
