A&D Medical (Toll-Free): 1-888-726-9966
In cases when the receiver device cannot receive measurement data,
the measurement data is temporarily stored in the monitor memory.
The data stored in the memory is transmitted the next time a
connection is successfully made to the receiver device. A total of 30 sets
of measurement data can be stored. When the amount of data exceeds
30 sets, the oldest data is deleted and the new data is stored. The
amount of data that can be stored temporarily may vary with the
application.
USING THE MONITOR
Time
This monitor has a built-in clock. The date and time a measurement
was taken is included in the measurement data.
The built-in clock is designed to be automatically adjusted by syncing
with the clock of a receiver device. Refer to the specifications of the
receiver device.
This monitor has no clock adjustment function.
Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading. If the
cuff is not the proper size, the reading may yield an incorrect blood
pressure value.
The arm size is printed on each cuff.
The index and proper fit range, on the cuff, tell you if you are
applying the correct cuff. Refer to "Symbols printed on the cuff".
If the index points outside of the range, contact your local dealer to
purchase a replacement cuff.
The cuff is a consumable. If it becomes worn, purchase a new one.

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 several minutes before 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.

WHAT IS AN IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT
The UA-651CNBLE 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 are relaxed, remain still
and do not talk during measurements.
Note: We recommend contacting your physician if you see this
symbol frequently.
The indicator monitors the progress of pressure during
measurement.
