Caution
• Do not measure blood pressure until at least
30 minutes after physical activity. Do not drink
stimulating beverages, such as coffee or alcohol,
or smoke before measurement.
• Sit for at least 5 minutes in a comfortable,
secure environment before measurement.
• Your blood pressure should be measured sitting
down. Take note if your blood pressure is taken
in a different position.
• Take measurements on both arms the first time
you use the monitor to make sure it is calibrated
and both readings are similar.
• Blood pressure should be measured at intervals
of no less than 3 minutes, depending on your
physical condition.
• People with arrhythmia and/or arteriosclerosis
should be measured by medical staff for a
professional diagnosis.
• Avoid pressing the cuff to your body when
taking measurements.
• Avoid any electromagnetic interference when
taking measurements.
Using the Blood Pressure
Monitor
Note: Before first use, fully charge the blood
pressure monitor (see Charging the Battery,
page 16).
Note: Your upper arm should be bare or wearing
only thin material.
1. Rest in a comfortable area for at least 5 minutes
before measuring to ensure the best results.
2. Plug the cuff into the monitor. Make sure the air
plug is completely inserted to avoid air leaking.
3. Place the cuff on your upper left arm with the
air cable on the inside of your arm. The band
should not be wrapped too tightly (leave space
to insert about 2 fingers) and the lower edge
of the cuff should be about 0.8–1.2 in / 2–3 cm
away from your elbow. [Figure 4.1]
4. Select a user (see page 9).
