MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
Important Notes:
• Position the monitor at the same level as
your heart during measurement to ensure
accurate readings.
• Blood pressure changes with every heart-
beat and is in constant fluctuation through-
out the day.
• Blood pressure measurement can be
affected by the position of the user, his or
her physiologic condition and other fac-
tors. For greatest accuracy, wait 1 hour
after exercising, bathing, eating, drinking
beverages with alcohol or caffeine, or
smoking to measure blood pressure.
• Before measurement, it is suggested that
you sit quietly for 15 minutes as meas-
urements taken during a relaxed state
will have greater accuracy. You should
not be physically tired or exhausted while
taking a measurement.
• During the measurement, do not talk or
move your arm or hand muscles.
• See page 27 for additional notes regard-
ing your blood pressure measurement
