CHECK/ADJUST EXHAUST VELOCITY
Exhaust velocity is the rate at which the air pressure in the cuff
deflates during the course of measurement. It is preset at the
factory and generally does not need any further adjustment.
NOTE: The exhaust rate of your monitor was preset and tested at the
factory to ensure proper measurement. The rate set is dependent on
cuff size, not arm size. If using a cuff other than the one shipped with
the unit, you may need to adjust the exhaust velocity rate.
To check the exhaust velocity rate, proceed as follows:
1. Put on the arm cuff.
2. Press the POWER button.
The unit will begin taking a reading.
3. When zero appears, inflate the cuff by
squeezing the handheld inflator bulb.
Pump it until it shows a pressure level
40 mmHg higher than your usual
systolic measurement.
