Preparations for Use
5 Changing the Printer Ink
Though not originally equipped with an ink
roller, the HEM-703CP digital blood pressure
monitor contains enough printer ink to last
about two years when used once a day at
normal room temperature
When the ink on the print out becomes light
and hard to read, purchase a replacement ink
roller from your retailer and install as fol-lows
1 Remove the printer cover
3 Insert the supplement ink roller into the
allotted space next to the printer
4 Replace the printer cover
NOTE: The supplement ink roller should
last about two years, however, if you
need to replace the supplement ink
roller, simply grasp the top of the ink
roller and turn itslightlycounterc1ock-
wise before lifting the roller from the
printer

Preparations for Use
6 Attach the Cuff
This cuff has eliminated the need for a
microphone thereby lessening possible
interference from vibrations and noise Fitting
also has been made much easier through the
widening of the artery oscillation detection
area
1 Place the cuff on the left arm so that the air
tube lies across the center of the arm
3 Place your arm on a table or a support with
the palm facing upward so that the cuff is
placed at the same level as the heart
2 Wrap the cuff pulling in a diagonal angle
securely so that the cuff tab is positioned
about one inch above the elbow joint of the
inner your left upper arm (Over the brachi-
al artery)
There should be no space between the
cuff and your arm
NOTE: If you have any difculties wrap-ping
cuff by yourself, we recom-mend that
you ask someone to wrap the cuff for
you

1 When you press the start button, the pump
operates and pressure is applied When
the pressure reaches 170mmHg, the
pump stops automatically
2 When the appropriate pressure has been
reached, the air is automatically released
and the value on the display window
starts to decrease After a while when the
artery oscillations are detected, the ( ♥ )
symbol starts ashing and the unit emits
a beep-ing sound simultaneously The
value shown on the display will continue
to fall
* During measurement, do not shake
the cuff or the air tube
Depress the START
button continuously
untill the cuff is inated
up to the targeted
pressure
After the cuff has
been inated,
release the START
button
Notes:
* If your systolic blood pressure is higher
than 140mmHg, the pump starts again and
the cuff will be inated up to 210mmHg
* If your systolic blood pressure is higher
than 180mmHg, sufcient ination will
not be applied to the cuff by automatic
reination In this case, inate up to
30mmHg higher than your expected
systolic blood pressure by pressing the
start button continuously While press-ing
the start button, the cuff can be in-ated
continuously, and when the start button
is released, the pump stops and the cuff
is no longer inated When the pressure
reaches 300mmHg, the cuff deates
rapidly
* When you want to stop measurememt,
press SPHYG/CLOCK button The pres-
