Using the Monitor
Attaching The Arm Cuff
1. Wrap the cuff around the upper
arm, about 2 -3 cm above the
elbow, as shown. Place the cuff
directly against the skin, as
clothing may cause a faint pulse,
and result in a measurement error.
2. Constriction of the upper arm,
caused by rolling up a shirtsleeve,
may prevent accurate readings.
How To Take Proper Measurements
For the most accurate blood
pressure measurement:
Sit comfortably at a table.
Rest your arm on the table.
Relax for about five to ten minutes
before measurement.
Place the center of the cuff at the same height as your heart.
Remain still and keep quiet during measurement.
Do not measure right after physical exercise or a bath. Rest for twenty or
thirty minutes before taking the measurement.
Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time every day.
Measurement
During measurement, it is normal for the cuff to feel very tight. (Do not be
alarmed)
After Measurement
After measurement, press the START button to turn off the power.
Remove the cuff and record your data.
Note: The device has an automatic power shut-off function, which turns the
power off approximately one minute after measurement.
Allow at least ten minutes between measurements on the same person.

Measurements
Model UA-767 is designed to detect the pulse and to inflate the cuff
to a systolic pressure level automatically.
If your systolic pressure is expected to exceed 230 mmHg or you use the
optional small cuff, read "Measurement with the desired systolic
pressure" on next page.
Normal Measurement
1. Place the cuff on the arm (preferably the left arm).
Sit quietly during measurement.
2. Press the START button.
The last data of systolic and diastolic
pressure and pulse rate are displayed
briefly.Then the display changes,as
indicated in the figure at the right,as the
measurement begins. The cuff starts to
inflate. It is normal for the cuff to feel very
tight. A pressure bar indicator is displayed,
as in the figure at the right, during inflation.
Note: If you wish to stop inflation at any time,
press the START button again.
3. When inflation is complete, deflation starts
automatically and the (heart mark)
blinks, indicating that the measurement is
in progress. Once the pulse is detected,
the mark flashes with each pulse beat.
Note: If an appropriate pressure is not
obtained, the device starts to inflate
again automatically.
4. When the measurement is complete, the
systolic and diastolic pressure readings and
pulse rate are displayed. The cuff exhausts
the remaining air and deflates completely.
5. Press the START button again to turn
off the power.
Note: Model UA-767 is provided with an automatic power shut-off
function. Allow at least ten minutes between measurements on
the same person.

Measurements
Measurement With The Desired Systolic Pressure
If your systolic pressure is expected to exceed 230 mmHg or you use the
optional small cuff, use this procedure.
1. Place the cuff on the arm (preferably the left arm).
2. Press and hold the START button
until a number about 30 to 40 mmHg
higher than your expected systolic
pressure appears.
3. Release the START button to start
measurement, when the desired
number is reached. Then continue to
measure your blood pressure as
described on the previous page.
Notes For Proper Measurement
Sit down in a comfortable position. Place the arm to be used for the
measurement on a table or other support so that the center of the cuff
will be at the same height as your heart.
Relax for about five or ten minutes before taking a measurement. If you
are excited or depressed by emotional stress, the measurement will
reflect this stress as a higher (or lower) than normal blood pressure
reading and the pulse reading will usually be faster than normal.
An individual's blood pressure varies constantly, depending on what you
are doing and what you have eaten. What you drink can have a very
strong and rapid effect on your blood pressure.
This device bases its measurements on the heartbeat. If you have a very
weak or irregular heartbeat, the device may have difficulty determining
your blood pressure.
Should the device detect a condition that is abnormal, it will stop the
measurement and display an error symbol. See page 4 for the
description of symbols.
This blood pressure monitor is intended for use by adults only. Consult
with your physician before using this device on a child. A child should not
use this device unattended.

What Is An Irregular Heartbeat
Model UA-767 blood pressure monitor provides a blood pressure
and pulse rate measurement even when an irregular heartbeat occurs.
An irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that varies by 25% from
the average of all heartbeats during the blood pressure measurement. It
is important that you be relaxed, remain still and do not talk during
measurements.
Note: We recommend contacting your physician if you see this
indicator frequently.

About Blood Pressure
What Is Blood Pressure?
Blood pressure is the force exerted by blood against the walls of the arteries.
Systolic pressure occurs when the heart contracts. Diastolic pressure occurs
when the heart expands. Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of
mercury (mmHg). One's natural blood pressure is represented by the
fundamental pressure, which is measured first thing in the morning while one
is still at rest and before eating.
What Is Hypertension And How Is It Controlled?
Hypertension, an abnormally high arterial blood pressure, if left unattended,
can cause many health problems including stroke and heart attack.
Hypertension can be controlled by altering lifestyle, avoiding stress,and with
medication under a doctor’s supervision.
To prevent hypertension or keep it under control:
Do not smoke Exercise regularly
Reduce salt and fat intake Have regular physical checkups
Maintain proper weight
Why Measure Blood Pressure At Home?
Blood pressure measured at a clinic or doctor's office may cause
apprehension and can produce an elevated reading, 25 to 30 mmHg higher
than that measured at home. Home measurement reduces the effects of
outside influences on blood pressure readings, supplements the doctor's
readings and provides a more accurate, complete blood pressure history.
WHO Blood Pressure Classification
Standards to assess high
blood pressure, without
regard to age, have been
established by the World
Health Organization (WHO),
as shown in the chart below.
Blood Pressure Variations
An individual’sblood pressure
varies greatly on a daily and
seasonal basis. It may vary by
30 to 50 mmHg due to various conditions during the day. In hypertensive
individuals’ variations are even more pronounced. Normally, the blood
pressure rises while at work or play and falls to its lowest levels during sleep.
So, do not be overly concerned by the results of one measurement.
Take measurements at the same time every day using the procedure

English 12
described in this manual to get to know
your normal blood pressure. Regular
readings give a more comprehensive blood
pressure history. Be sure to note date and
time when recording your blood pressure.
Consult your doctor to interpret your blood
pressure data.

Utilisation de l’appareil
Mise en place du brassard
1. Enroulez le brassard autour du bras, à 2
ou 3 cm au-dessus du coude, comme
indiqué sur l’illustration ci-contre. Placez
le brassard directement sur la peau, car
un vêtement pourrait assourdir les
pulsations et provoquer une erreur de
mesure.
2. Evitez également de remonter la
manche, car elle comprimerait le bras ce
qui pourrait aussi provoquer uneerreur
de mesure.
Comment faire des mesures
correctes
Pour une meilleure précision des
mesures de la pression sanguine :
S'asseoir confortablement à une table.
Poser son bras sur la table.
Se relaxer pendant 5 à 10 minutes avant
de commencer les mesures.
Lever le bras de sorte que le centre du brassard soit à la même hauteur que le
coeur.
Bouger le moins possible et rester calme pendant les mesures.
Ne pas faire de mesure juste après un effort physique ou un bain. Se reposer
pendant 20 à 30 minutes avant de faire les mesures.
S’efforcer de mesurer la tension à la même heure tous les jours.
Pendant la mesure
Pendant la mesure, il est normal que l'on sente que le manchon est très serré. (Ne
pas s'inquiéter.)
Après la mesure
Après la mesure, appuyez sur le bouton START pour éteindre l’appareil.
Enlevez le brassard et notez votre tension et votre pouls.
Note: Cet appareil est doté de la fonction de mise hors tension automatique, qui éteint un
appareil automatiquement dans un délai d’une minute après la mesure.
Attendez au moins une dizaine de minutes avant de remesurer votre tension (ou
celle d’une autre personne) à des fins de confirmation.
