d) Lay your arm on a table, with the palm
upwards.
Support the arm a little with a cushion, so that the
cuff rests at about the same height as the heart.
Remain still for 2 minutes, before beginning the
measurement.
5.4. Measuring procedure
After the cuff has been appropriately positioned, the measurement can
begin:
a) Press the ON/OFF button to begin. After
pressing the ON/OFF button the pump
begins to inflate the cuff. In the display,
the increasing cuff-pressure is continually
displayed.
b) After reaching the inflation pressure, the
pump stops and the pressure slowly falls.
The cuff pressure (large characters) is dis-
played during the measurement. When
the device has detected the pulse, the
heart symbol in the display begins to
blink and a beep tone is audible for every
pulse beat.
c) When the measurement has been concluded, a long beep tone sounds.
The measured systolic and diastolic blood pressure values as well as
the frequency are now displayed.
(Pulse=number of heartbeats each minute)
Example (Fig.): Systolic 118, Diastolic 73,
Pulse 75. The measurement results are dis-
played until you switch the device off.
