HOW TO MEASURE YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE
To get an accurate blood pressure measurement, you need to start by
setting the pressure cuff on your arm to the correct starting pressure. The
correct starting pressure level for you is your systolic blood pressure (the
higher of your two blood pressure readings) plus 40 mmHg. You can select
between "Auto" and "Manual" techniques for pressurizing the cuff. Select
Auto if you are the only one using the unit, and select Manual if several
people are sharing the unit with you.
For use by only one person:
You can change the pressure setting by pressing the
until the desired level is reached. Set the
pressure manually to your systolic blood pressure value
(the higher of your two blood pressure readings)
+40 mmHg. Then measure your blood pressure.
AUTO
(See page 20 “Automatic
Pressurizing mode”)
Sets the starting pressure automatically to your correct
starting level, according to previous measurements.
* When you use the unit the first time after replacing the
batteries, the pressure will be set to 160 mmHg.
For shared use by several people:
MANUAL
(See page 22 “Manual
Pressurizing mode”)
In either Auto or Manual setting, you can measure your blood pressure by simply
pressing one button.
