3. Press the Power Button. A set of symbols will appear
on the Display (Fig. 3) Wait for the “0’ symbol, indicat-
ing that the Monitor is ready to measure, to appear in
the Display before starting measurement.
4. Slide the Cuff Size Adjuster down until the too tight
indicator appear on the Display (Fig.4). When the
“X”
appears, move
Cuff Size Adjuster up 1 notch. If your
fingers are slender, the smallest finger cuff position may
be the most suitable. In this case, the
‘X”
will not
appear. Inaccurate blood pressure readings will result
from improper Finger Cuff adjustments.
5. Hold the Monitor steadily at heart level with one or
both hands. Be sure that when holding the Monitor, your
hand or hands are relaxed. Press the Start Button. The
Finger Cuff will automatically inflate to a pressure of
about 200 mmHg. If a higher starting point than 200
mmHg is required, the unit will stop inflation automati-
cally, then resume inflation after determining the correct
starting point.
