5. Attaching the appliance
Use the appliance only on persons whose wrist 'fits' the
pressure sleeve. The sleeve must be attached lightly and
closed firmly with the Velcro fastener. If ...
- the wrist is too thin, it may not be possible to pump up
the pressure sleeve sufficiently, and in this case an exact
measurement is not possible.
- the wrist is too thick, it may not be possible to fasten the
pressure sleeve firmly enough and, in this case too, an
exact measurement is possible.
Important: Do not use the appliance if you have any injuries
or lesions to the wrist. These could be aggravated by the
pressure when the sleeve is pumped up.
A measurement of blood pressure can only be meaningful if
the blood circulation has settled. You should therefore be
seated calmly, and wait for about 3 to 5 minutes before
taking a measurement.
ᕡ Attach the appliance to the inside of the wrist, as
shown.
ᕢ Close the Velcro fastener firmly, but in such a way that
the sleeve is applied evenly all round.
