4 How to Set the Printing Paper
Please be sure not to print without inserting
printing paper as it will shorten the life span
of the printer head
1 Slide the plastic printer cover in the
direction indicated by the arrow symbol
and remove it from the main unit
4 Insert the printing paper in the installation
section, and then attach the cover back to
the main unit in such a way that the edge
of the paper protrudes from the cover
5 When the PRINT/PAPER FEED button
is pressed while the results of the
measurement are shown on the digital
display, these results, together with the
date and time of measurement are printed
out
6 When purchasing printing paper, ask at the
shop where you purchased the main unit
for further supply Other brands of paper
may be used providing the dimensions are
smaller than 38mm wide and 20mm in di-
ameter However the printing quality may
differ a little
2 Peel off the glued edge of the prontlng
paper included with the unit, and cut it off
to about 2 inches with a pair of scissors,

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
Supplement ink roller
2 Removethe ink, which came with the
unit when you bought it, from the allotted
space

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

Preparations for Use
7 Apply Pressure to the Cuff
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-
sure will stop and the air is deated rapidly

When the deation symbol begins to ash,
the residual pressure in the cuff is then
rapidly released
1 When the unit has continued to deate
to a point when the artery oscillations are
no longer detected, the unit will display
the systolic and diastolic blood pressure
values, along with a long beep, and causes
the deation indication symbol (  ) to start
ashing After this, blood pressure and the
pulse readings are displayed alter-nately
