Taking Your Blood Pressure
5. When the measurement is complete, the systolic
and diastolic pressure readings and pulse rate
are displayed. The cuff deflates and the monitor
automatically shuts off after 45 seconds, or you can
turn it off by pressing the START button.
6. Remove cuff and make note of your blood pressure
and pulse rate on the Blood Pressure Record chart in
the back of the manual, indicating the date and time of
measurement.
Important: Measure blood pressure at the same time each day.
Manual override of systolic pressure setting:
If your systolic pressure is expected to exceed 230 mmHg follow these steps:
1. Place the cuff on the left arm, unless your physician tells you otherwise.
2. Press and hold the START button until a number 30 to 40 mmHg higher
than your expected systolic pressure appears.
3. Release the START button when the desired number is reached.
280 mmHg is the highest pressure level the monitor can reach.
Measurement will then begin. Continue to measure your blood pressure
as described on Page E-9.
