Use Guide
Initial Setup
- Insert the 4 AA batteries into the compartment on the back of the monitor. Ensure correct polarity (+/-).
- Alternatively, connect the provided USB cable to the port on the side of the monitor and to a USB power source (5V, 1A adapter recommended, not included).
- Set the date and time using the Date/Time Set button. Accurate time is required for proper memory function.
Applying the Cuff
- Sit comfortably on a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Rest for 5 minutes before measuring.
- Remove any tight clothing from your upper arm.
- Pass the end of the cuff through the metal D-ring to form a loop. The air tube should run down the center of your inner arm.
- Wrap the cuff snugly around your bare upper arm. The lower edge of the cuff should be 2-3 cm above your elbow.
- Ensure the cuff is neither too tight nor too loose. You should be able to fit one finger between the cuff and your arm.
- Rest your arm on a table so the cuff is at the same level as your heart. Relax your hand with palm facing up.
Taking a Measurement
- Press the Start/Stop button. The display will show all segments briefly, then "0".
- The cuff will inflate automatically. Remain still and do not talk during inflation and measurement.
- The cuff will deflate automatically. Your systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse rate will be displayed.
- The reading is automatically saved to the memory of the current user.
- The monitor will turn off automatically after about one minute.
Note: If an error occurs (e.g., "Err" appears), the cuff may be incorrectly positioned, or there was excessive movement. Reposition the cuff and remain still before trying again.
Using the Memory Function
- Selecting a User: Press the Memory (M) button to toggle between User 1 and User 2. The user icon (1 or 2) will appear on the display.
- Viewing Stored Readings: Press the Memory (M)
- Average Reading: The device can calculate and display the average value of the last three measurements for the selected user.
- Clearing Memory: To clear all memory for the current user, press and hold the Memory (M) button for approximately 5 seconds while in memory review mode until the display resets.
Understanding the Results
