NOTE:
If the cuff becomes dirty, remove it from the
monitor and clear it by hand with a mild deter-
gent, then rinse it thoroughly in cold water.
Never dry the cuff in a dryer or iron it.
We recommend to clean the cuff generally after
every 200 times of usage.
4.3 Correct position for taking readings
The Correct Measuring Position when sitting
• Carry out the measurement whilst seated.
• Relax your arm and place it comfortably, on
a table for instance.
• Ensure that the cuff is at heart height.
• Keep still during the measurement: do
not move and do not talk as this may
alter the measurements.
Correct position for taking measurements
lying down
• In special cases the measurement can also be
taken lying down.
• Lie on your back and relax for at least 5 minutes
and also relax your arm.
• Ensure that the cuff is at heart height. Differing heights affect the
accuracy of the measurement.
• Keep still during the measurement: do not move and do not talk as
this may alter the measurements.
