Preparing for a Measurement
Find time to relax by sitting in an armchair in a quiet atmosphere for about ten
minutes before taking a measurement. Avoid eating and smoking as well as all
forms of exertion directly before measurement.
Measure on a bare arm, if possible.
Always measure on the same arm (normally left).
Try to take measurements around the same time each day.
