• Bare your left wrist, making sure that the circulation in
the arm is not resctricted by any clothes etc. that are too
tight. Position the cuff on the inside of your wrist.
• Fasten the cuff with the Velcro fastening so that the upper
edge of the monitor is positioned approx. 1 cm below the
ball of your thumb.
• The cuff has to be tted tightly around the wrist but
should not constrict it.
• Rest for approx. 5 minutes before each
measurement. Otherwise there may be
differences.
• You can perform the measurement
either sitting or lying down. It is
essential to support your arm and have
it at an angle. Always make sure that
the cuff is level with your heart. Otherwise there may be
serious differences. Relax your arm and the palms of your
hands.

STOP” button.
• Using the buttons “down” or “up”, select the user
memory 1, 2 or 3. On succesful measurement, results are

evening.

STOP” button. The cuff is pumped up to 195 mmHg. Cuff
