Parts Identification
Operating the Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor
To initiate a monitoring session:
1. Place the Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor on a stable surface.
2. Insert the air connector plug firmly into the air socket.
3. Wrap the cuff around the upper arm about 2-3 cm (1 inch) above the elbow, as shown
below. Place the cuff directly against the skin, as clothing may cause the Wireless Blood
Pressure Monitor to record a faint heartbeat and result in an error.
4. Verify that the index on the arm cuff points within the proper fit range.

Note: Constriction of the upper arm caused by rolling up a shirt sleeve
may prevent the Blood Pressure Monitor from recording accurate
readings.
5. Sit comfortably around a table. Rest your arm on the table. Relax for a few minutes
before starting the measurement.
6. Set the PRESSURE switch to a value that will be 30 to 40 mmHg above the expected
systolic value and press the START button.
The micro pump will pressurize the cuff.
7. Remain still while the device is in operation.
Note
The cuff will become very tight. Do not be alarmed, as this is normal.

When pressurization is complete, the automatic exhaust mechanism gradually reduces
the pressure in the cuff.
When the measurement is complete, the buzzer sounds and the air is automatically released
from the cuff. The systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse rate are displayed.
8. Press the START button to turn off the device. The Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor
will automatically transmit the measurement. The display indicates that the device is
transferring the measurement.
After communication is completed, the device is turned off.
The Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor has an automatic Power Off function. If the monitor is
left on for about one minute after the measurement, it will automatically transmit the
measurement and turn itself off.
Do not allow anyone else to use your Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor. Remember:
Every time you use the Blood Pressure Monitor, the results are sent to your medical file. Use
of the device by another person will cause an accumulation of erroneous data in your
medical file.
