OPERATING THE DEVICE
7. Lying blood pressure measurement
To measure the blood pressure in a lying position, lay on your back
and stretch out your arm where the measurement is to be carried
out, with the palm facing upwards next to you. Ensure that the cuff
is at heart level.
Please note:
1. If it is not possible to put the arm cuff on the left arm, it can also be placed on the right
side. All measurements should, however, be carried out on the same arm.
2. Ensure that the used cuff has the right size according to your arm.
3. Do not move your arm, the device or the rubber tube of the cuff during measurement.
4. Prior to a measurement, relax for 5 minutes.
5. Please keep the cuff clean. If the cuff becomes dirty, remove it from the device and clean
it manually with a mild cleaning agent and rinse it with cold water. Never dry the cuff in
a dryer or iron it. We recommend to clean the cuff after 200 measurements at the latest.
6. Never use the cuff on an arm with an inflammation, acute disease, infections of the skin
or a wound.
Measurement
As soon as the cuff is suitably positioned, you can start the measurement.
• Now press the Start/Stop button (A) in order to start the measurement.
The device starts with a self-test where all display symbols are shown on
the display and a signal tone sounds.
• If measured values have already been stored, the last measured value is
displayed briefly. When the device is used for the first time and thus there
are not measured values stored yet or if all measured values
have been deleted, the value "0" is shown here.
• When the voice output is activated, this will guide you through
the measurement.
• The device automatically starts with inflating the cuff.
• As soon as the device has built up sufficient pressure within
the cuff, it automatically stops inflating and starts deflating the
air. The actual measuring process starts.
• As soon as the device can measure a pulse beat, this is indicated by a
flashing pulse beat display
• When the measurement is completed, the systolic and the diastolic
pressure as well as the measured pulse frequency are displayed
and stored. Furthermore, the measurement result, with regard to the
WHO scale, is shown on the blood pressure analysis display (11) and
automatically stored in the device. Now the cuff allows the residual air escape from the
system until it is completely empty.
• When the voice output is activated, the device will announce the measurement results
and the classification according to the WHO scale.
• When the device is not used for more than one minute, it switches off automatically.
