9 Measuring your bloodpressure
9.1 Posture
1. Relax your entire body, especially the
area between your elbow and fingers.
Place your elbow on a table so that
the cuff is at the same level as your
heart.
Your heart is located slightly below
your arm pit.
2. If the cuff is not at the same level as your heart or if you can not
keep your arm completely still throughout the reading, use a soft
object such as folded towel to support your arm.
3. Turn your palm upwards. Sit upright in a chair, and take 5-6 deep
breaths. Avoid leaning back during measurement.
9.2 Important
This monitor automatically switches off 3 minutes after the last
key operation.
To interrupt the measurement, simply press ‘POWER’. The cuff
will deflate.
During the measurement, do not talk or move your arm or hand
muscles.
