HOW TO MEASURE YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE
1. Put the cuff around your arm.
1. Remove the Velcro to unroll the cuff as illustrated.
● When the cuff comes off, pass it through the metal ring.
The Velcro-attached side is the outer surface.
● Put the cuff around your arm so that the air hose comes
to the palm side.
● The cuff should be put on the bare arm or over a light-
weight underwear.
● If you wear a heavy-weight top, please remove it. Be
aware that the upper arm may be compressed resulting
in incorrect measurements if you roll up sleeves.
● Adjust the cuff position as that the air hose is located at
the center of your arm and so that the air hose outlet
section is spaced 1 to 2 mm from the elbow joint.
● Draw the end of cuff to fit it on the arm and secure with
Velcro.
● Carefully put the arm taking care to obtain adequate tight-
ness, not too tight or loose. Adequate tightness is ob-
tained when such an allowance that you can put a finger
between the cuff and your arm is provided as illustrated
left.
Place your arm on a table or the like so that the center of the
cuff comes to the height of you heart and lightly open the
palm.
