1.Once the cuff is properly applied and you are seated with  

your feet flat on the floor, you are ready to take a 
measurement.

2.Holding the pump bulb in your hand, press  

the START/STOP button, the "      " icon will  
appear. This tells you to release any trapped  
air in the cuff by pressing and holding the air  
release knob just above the bulb.

*             will appear and 4 beeps will sound if  

the air is not released before pumping. The  
cuff must be fully deflated.

3.When the "     " icon begins flashing start squeezing the Pump   

Bulb. This will start to inflate the cuff and you will feel the cuff   
get tighter.

4.The cuff should not inflate to the point of discomfort, if this  

happens the cuffed is wrapped to tightly. Depress the air  
release knob at the base of the Pump Bulb to release the air  
and press the "START/STOP" button to stop the measurement.   
Rewrap the cuff leaving more room between your arm and  
the cuff.

5.Continue to squeeze the Pump Bulb until you hear a beep. This 

is your signal to STOP squeezing and the "     " icon will be  
displayed, sit still and quiet while measuring. A flashing  
"    "appears as your measurement is being taken and the  
bulb symbol will stop flashing. (Do not inflate the monitor 
higher than 240 mmHg).
