General remarks on blood pressure and blood pressure
measurement
1. To defl ate the cuff quickly, press the “START/STOP” switch.
2. Before applying your blood pressure cuff, be sure you have selected the
appropriate size cuff:
Cuff (model: SCN-003) fi ts arm circumference: 22-32 cm
[OPTION]
Large cuff (model: SCL-005) fi ts arm circumference: 32-42 cm
3. When attaching the cuff, adjust the position of the cuff so that the blue marker is
located in the center of your arm and the hem of the cuff is 1-2 cm for Cuff / 2-3
cm for Large cuff above your elbow.
4. Self measurement is not therapy! In no event should you change the dosage of
your medication prescribed by your physician.
5. As preparation for measuring your blood pressure, you should urinate and then
remain relatively still for 10 to 15 minutes prior to measurement.
6. DO NOT place too much emphasis on the results of one measurement. Keep a
continuing record of your blood pressure variations. A complete picture can only
be obtained from a large number of readings.
To obtain correct blood pressure measurements
1. Take fi ve or six deep breaths and then relax before measuring your blood
pressure. If you are tense when taking the measurement, you will not get a
valid reading.
2. Your blood pressure will be elevated if you are anxious or irritated, suffering
from lack of sleep or constipation, or have just taken some exercise or
eaten a meal.
3. Wrap the cuff around your arm and tighten it so that one fi nger can be
inserted between the cuff and arm. (
See page 12)
4. DO NOT measure your blood pressure after bathing or drinking.
5. Measure your blood pressure where the room temperature is around 20°C.
DO NOT measure your blood pressure when it is too cold (below 10°C) or
too hot (above 40°C) in the room.
6. DO NOT try to measure your blood pressure immediately after drinking coffee or
tea or after smoking.
7. Measure your blood pressure when you are relaxed and still. Keep the center of
the cuff at the level of your heart and DO NOT move your arm or talk.
8. DO NOT measure blood pressure when the cuff has been on your arm for a few
minutes or more. During this time, your arm will have built up a higher blood
pressure and you will not get valid reading.
9. If the Body movement indicator or Irregular heartbeat (IHB) indicator is
displayed, relax and measure your blood pressure again. If the Irregular
heartbeat (IHB) indicator appears frequently, you are advised to consult a doctor
about your health condition. (
