Fasten the cuff snugly, leaving at least a finger’s room in between the cuff and your arm. 6. Place your arm on the table so the cuff is at the same height as your heart. Be sure the inflation tube lines up with your arm Step Three Step Four Measuring Blood Pressure 1. Press START/STOP. All display segments appear briefly and the monitor automatically inflates to 160 mmHg, or the necessary inflation level. The systolic rate decreases gradually, appears, and ¦ flashes at the same rate as your heartbeat. 2. Once your blood pressure is detected, the monitor deflates slowly. The blood pressure reading and pulse rate appear. The air pressure in the arm cuff releases. 3. To stop the measurement at any time, press START/ STOP. appears briefly when: • You do not wrap or position the cuff around your arm correctly. • You talk or move the body during measurement. • You have incorrect posture. • The batteries become weak and flashes. Step One Setting the Date and Time 1. Press MODE. The month digit flashes. 2. Repeatedly press ( or hold down) SET to set the correct month. 3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 to set the date, hour, and minute. 4. Press MODE to complete setting. Step Two What’s Included • Auto Inflatable Arm Cuff • Monitor • Carry Pouch Optional Accessories • Body Fat Analyzer • Environizer • Rechargeable Batteries • Battery Charger Installing Batteries 1.

Pull down the cover then press the cover down to snap it in place. When the display dims or the batteries weaken, appears on the display. Replace the batteries. Or Using an AC Adapter You can also power the blood pressure monitor using a 6V DC, 1A AC adapter. To connect an AC adapter to the blood pressure moni- tor, attach a size M AdaptaplugTM to the adapter with its tip set to positive. Insert the adapter’s barrel plug into the monitor’s DC 6V jack. Then plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet. Understanding Blood Pressure Blood pressure is the pressure or force of circulating blood against the walls of the arteries. Systolic pressure is the highest pressure exerted when the heart contracts and pumps blood to your body. Diastolic pressure is the lowest pressure exerted when the heart pulls the blood back. Blood pressure includes systolic and diastolic pressures, and is read as 120/ 80 mmHg, with the systolic reading first. Both readings are an important diagnostic index for a physician to evaluate the status of a patient’s blood pressure and prescribe the right medication. The ideal time for measuring blood pressure is in the morning after getting up, before any activity, and having any food. Why Monitor Blood Pressure At Home? Blood pressure varies based on many conditions and factors. Judgment cannot be made by just one measurement. Monitoring blood pressure at home provides you an important way of monitoring your health. Keeping track of your blood pressure also helps your doctor diagnose and offer the right medication for you. What Is Normal Blood Pressure? Based on World Health Organization classifications, blood pressure readings are as follows: Variations in Blood Pressure Blood pressure varies by many factors like physical condition, weight, anxiety, season, and time of day. In general, it is lower in the morning, and increases from afternoon to evening. It is lower in the summer and higher in the winter. It rises while at work and lowers while sleeping. It is also affected by alcohol consumption, smoking, and medication. Normal within 130/ 85 mmHg High over 130/ 85 mmHg but below 139/ 89 mmHg Hypertension over 139/ 89 mmHg Recalling Stored Readings The blood pressure monitor saves up to 48 measurements. 1. Press MEMORY. The last blood pressure reading with the date and time appears. 2. Repeatedly press or hold down MEMORY to view other stored blood pressure readings. 3. To see the current date and time, repeatedly press or hold down MEMORY until the current date and time appear. 4. To turn off the blood pressure monitor, wait for one minute for it to turn off automatically. 5. To erase all stored readings, remove and re-install the batteries. Step Five • Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. • Do not burn or bury batteries. • Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type. • Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of different capacities. • If ...
