measurement.

☞
Unless your physician recommends otherwise, use left arm to measure
☞
pressure.
Do not talk during measurement.
☞
Do not cross legs. Keep your feet flat on floor during measurement.

Now you are ready. Follow these simple steps:
1. Sit comfortably in a chair near a flat surface.
2. With palm facing upward, attach monitor to the inside
of your left wrist and fasten securely. The top edge of the
cuff should align with the crease of your wrist.
3. Position your wrist so it is level with your heart, using an
arm rest if needed. Positioning of the wrist at heart level
is critical for accurate measurement.
4. Press the START button. As the cuff pressurizes, the
Cuff Inflation Meter will show on the display screen. It
is normal for the cuff to feel very tight.
NOTE: To stop inflation at any time, press START
5. Remain still and refrain from talking or moving during reading.
NOTE: If a reading is not correctly detected, the device will start to
automatically re-inflate.
