of extraordinary importance. The cuff size is dependent upon the circumference of the arm (measured in

the center). The permissible range is printed on the cuff. If this is not suitable for your use, please

contact your dealer. Note: Only use clinically approved Microlife Cuffs!

• A loose cuff or a sideways protruding air pocket causes false measurement values.

5.3. Fitting the cuff

a) Push the cuff over the left upper arm so that the tube points in

the direction of the lower arm.

b) Lay the cuff on the arm as illustrated. Make certain that the

lower edge of the cuff lies approximately 2 to 3 cm above the

elbow and that the rubber tube leaves the cuff on the inner side

of the arm.

c) Tighten the free end of the cuff and close the cuff with the Velcro.

d) The cuff should be snug on your upper arm, but not too tight. Any

clothing which restricts the arm (e.g. pullover) must be taken off.

e) Lay your arm on a table (palm upwards) so that the cuff is at the

same height as the heart. Make sure that the tube is not kinked.

Note:

If it is not possible to fit the cuff to the left arm, it can also be placed

on the right. However all measurements should be made using the

same arm.

5.4. Measuring procedure

After the cuff has been appropriately positioned, the measurement can begin:

a) Press the START button. The pump begins to inflate the cuff. The

rising pressure in the cuff is shown in the display.

b) After reaching the inflation pressure, the pump stops and the

pressure gradually falls. The cuff pressures are displayed. In case

that the inflation pressure is not sufficient, the monitor automa-

tically re-inflates to a higher level.

c) When the instrument detects a pulse, the heart symbol in the

display starts to flash and a beep is heard for every heartbeat.

d) A longer beep is sounded when the measurement has been

completed. The systolic, and diastolic blood pressures and pulse

rate now appear in the display.

e) The measurement results are displayed, until you switch the

device off. If no button is pressed for 5 minutes, the device

switches automatically off, to save the batteries.
