1. Before Using the Instrument
Selecting the correct cuff
Microlife offers different cuff sizes. Select the cuff size to match
the circumference of your upper arms (use marking on the cuff).
Use only Microlife cuffs.
Properly connect the cuff to the device by inserting the cuff
connector 7 into the cuff socket 3 as far as it can go.
2. Taking a Blood Pressure Measurement
Checklist for taking a reliable measurement
1. Always ensure that the correct cuff size is used.
•Fitthecuffclosely,butnottootight.
•Makesurethatthecuffis2cmabovepatient'selbow.
•Theartery mark located on the cuff (ca. 3 cm long bar)
must lie over the artery which runs down the inner
side of the arm.
•Supportpatient'sarmsoitisrelaxed.
•Ensurethatthecuffisatthesameheightaspatient's
heart.
2. Switchonthedeviceandwaituntil<<0>>appearsinthe
display and the arrows AS start to flash.
3. Pump up the cuff. Watch the pressure indication on the
displayandpumpapprox.40mmHghigherthantheexpected
systolic blood pressure value (the upper value). A beep will
sound and the flashing arrows will disappear when you have
reached the appropriate pressure. If you have not pumped
enough, the flashing arrows AS will not disapear to indicate
that you should pump higher.
4. Afterpumping,themeasurementistakenautomatically.
Askthepatienttorelax,nottomoveandnottotensethe
arm muscles until the measurement result is displayed. The
patient should breathe normally and not talk.

with the original device and insert this cuff connector into
the tube of the spare cuff (valid for all cuff sizes).
