Operation Manual

1. Ideally, remove close-fitting garments from upper arm. If you

roll up your sleeve, ensure it does not cause constriction of the

blood flow in your upper arm.

2. Unroll the cuff of your QardioArm, and pull the tab to open the

cuff loop. (As indicated in drawing 1.)

3. Insert your arm inside the cuff loop. (As indicated in drawing 2.)

4. Pull the cuff to close it around your arm. You should fit the cuff

closely, but not too tight so you can insert a finger between

your arm and the cuff. (As indicated in drawing 3.)

5. Make sure that the cuff is positioned about 1 inch or 2 cm

above the elbow, and your QardioArm is positioned on the

inner side of the arm, over the artery. The Qardio logo should

be on the bottom, towards your hand.

6. Support your arm so it is relaxed, and ensure that the

QardioArm is at the same height as your heart. Your arm should

remain slightly bent while taking the measurement.
