4.1 Fitting the cuff
First attach the free end of the cuff’s air hose      to 
the designated connector       on the left side of the
unit.                                                                      
i
Slide  the  open  end  of  the  cuff  through  the  metal 
bracket so that the Velcro fastener is on the outside 
and  it  becomes  a  cylindrical  form  (Fig.1).  Slide  the
cuff over your left upper arm.                               
i
Position  the  air  hose  in  the  middle  of  your  arm  in 
line  with  your  middle  finger  (Fig.2)  (a).  The  lower 
edge of the cuff should be 2 - 3 cm above the crea-
se  of  the  elbow  (b).  Pull  the  cuff  tight  and  close  the 
Velcro fastener (c).    
                                           i
Measure the pulse on your bare arm.                  
i
Only position the cuff on the right arm if it cannot be
used on the left arm. Always carry out measurements 
on the same arm.                                                 
 i

Take readings while in a seated position. Relax your arm and rest it
lightly on a surface such as a table. Relax during the measuring 
process: do not move or talk, as this can affect the results.
With repeated measurements , blood accumulates in the arm which 
can lead to false reading. Consecutive blood pressure measurements 
should be repeated after 3 minutes pause or after the arm has been 
held up in order to allow the accumulated blood to flow away.
4.2 Taking a blood pressure measurement
After the cuff has been appropriately positioned,the measurement can begin.
Before using the unit, you need to put the LOCK-switch      to position "ON" (green). 
In  "OFF"  (red)  -  position  the  Bluetooth  function  is  deactivated  and  all  buttons  are
locked.

Switch the unit on by pressing the START/STOP button            .                            
All display characters are shortly shown in the display. This test can be used to check 
that the display is indicating properly and in full. The unit is ready for measurement 
and the number 0 appears.                                                                                       
i
The device automatically inflates the cuff slowly in order to measure your blood pres-
sure. The rising pressure in the cuff is shown on the display.                                   
i
When the device detects the signal, the heart symbol on the display starts to flash.
If a result is determined, the device slowly will release the air from the cuff. The sys-
tolic and diastolic blood pressure and the pulse value with the time value appear on 
the display.
