CORRECT MEASUREMENT • Place your elbow on the table or other supporting surface, and hold your arm so that the wrist sleeve is at heart height. In doing so, support your lower arm on the storage box or on a folded towel or similar. • To measure your blood pressure, sit comfortably on a chair, take 5 or 6 deep breaths and relax.
CARRYING OUT MEASUREMENTS 1. Attach the wrist sleeve to your wrist as described above. 2) Press the ON/OFF button. All indicators are displayed for a few seconds on the screen; then the screen shows the time and the most recently selected memory space. Measurement starts automatically; the device pumps up the sleeve. If the sleeve pressure is too low the device pauses and pumps up the sleeve again until it reaches a sleeve pressure that is appropriate for the measurement.
SAVING VALUES The device has two memory areas and . Up to 50 measurements can be saved in each area. You can also display the average values of the saved measurements. 1. Before measuring select the memory area with the memory area button. 2) Take the measurement. When the values are displayed MEM flashes on the screen for a few seconds. The measured value is saved into the chosen memory space. 3) Press the MEMORY button repeatedly to display the saved values.
