How to Take Proper Measurements
For the most accurate blood pressure measurement:
Sit comfortably at a table. Rest your arm on the table.
Relax for about five to ten minutes before measurement.
Place the center of the cuff at the same height as your heart.
Remain still and keep quiet during measurement.
Do not measure right after physical exercise or a bath. Rest for twenty or
thirty minutes before taking the measurement.
Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time every day.
Measurement
During measurement, it is normal for the cuff to feel very tight. (Do not be
alarmed).
After Measurement
After measurement, press the START button to turn the device off. After one
minute of non-operation, the device will turn off automatically.
Remove the cuff and record your data.
Note: Allow at least three minutes between measurements on the same person.
