Positioning the Pressure Cuff
1.
CAUTIONS:
e Do not use the unit for any purpose other than measuring blood
pressure. Also, do not use the unit in conjunction with other devices.
Improper use may cause a malfunction or personal injury.
e Keep the unit out of the reach of children.
Remove
your watch
and any
jewelry from your left hand.
Wrap the cuff around
the wrist
and secure it with hook-and-loop
fastener.
The unit can be used by persons
with a wrist circumference of 12.5
~ 22.0 cm (5" ~ 8-3/4") (Fig. 4-a).
Wrap the pressure cuff around the
wrist in such
a way that the
positioning mark is aligned with
the center of the wrist with your
wrist bent outwards.
In order
to secure
the
blood
pressure cuff in the proper position
on the wrist, place your right thumb
on the shorter side of the cuff
(Hook fastener) pressing firmly
while attaching to it the longer side
of the cuff (Loop fastener). The
pressure cuff should be fastened
snugly with the display facing
outward
from your
inner wrist
(palm side).
Make sure that the pressure cuff is
fixed firmly against your wrist, while
also assuring it is centered on your
wrist.
If the pressure cuff is too
loose, this will result in a false
blood pressure measurement.
