INTRODUCTION & INDICATIONS FOR USE
It is recommended that you rst seek the advice and recommendation of your
physician or healthcare professional when using home diagnostic devices,
including blood pressure monitors.
Automatic digital blood pressure monitors use the oscillometric method to
electronically measure your blood pressure. The monitor detects your blood’s
movement through the artery in your arm and converts the movements into a
digital reading. The oscillometric method does not require a stethoscope, making
the monitor ideal for home use.
Blood pressure readings determined with this device are equivalent to
measurements obtained by a trained healthcare professional using the cuff/
stethoscope auscultation method, within the limits prescribed by the American
National Standard for Electronic or Automated Sphygmomanometers.
Thank you for purchasing a SmartHeart Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor.
With proper care and use, your monitor will provide you with many years of
reliable readings.
PLEASE READ THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL
COMPLETELY BEFORE OPERATING THIS UNIT.

GETTING STARTED
Before Taking a Measurement
1. Your readings should only be interpreted by your physician or healthcare
professional with access to your individual medical history. Regular use of a
home blood pressure monitor will allow you to track and record your readings
for discussion with your physician.
2. Conduct your measurement in a quiet place while seated in a relaxed position.
Rest for 15 minutes before taking your reading. If an error occurs or you desire
to take a second reading, allow 15 minutes between readings for your blood
vessels to return to normal.
3. Avoid smoking, eating, taking medication, alcohol, physical activity or any
other stressful activity for 30 minutes prior to taking a reading.
4. Always remove any jewelry or constrictive clothing that may interfere with the
cuff placement.
5. Keep yourself and the monitor still during measuring; do not talk during the
reading.
6. It is recommended that you take your readings as the same time each day to
better monitor any indications in your results.
7. Record your daily measurement on the included chart or some other written
document to share with your physician.

FITTING AND APPLYING YOUR CUFF
PROPER CUFF FIT AND PLACEMENT IS CRITICAL IN OBTAINING
ACCURATE BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENTS. PLEASE READ THESE
INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND CONSIDER CONSULTING WITH
YOUR PHYSICIAN FOR FURTHER DIRECTION.
Before applying your blood pressure cuff, be sure you have
selected the appropriate size cuff.
To determine the proper cuff size, measure the circumference
of your left upper arm at the point midway between inside
bend of your elbow and your shoulder.
Adult Cuff ts arm circumference 8-3/4”—14-1/8” (22—36 cm)
A large adult cuff is (11-7/8” – 16-1/2”) is available for order on the enclosed
order form.
If for any reason you are unable to or should not use your left arm, please modify
the instructions for cuff application to your right arm. Your physician can help you
identify which arm is best for you to take measurements from.
Assembling Your Cuff
Your cuff may need to be ‘threaded’ through the metal bar
to form the cuff cylinder for your arm.
1. Lay the open cuff hook and loop side down, size/
instruction wording side up on a at surface.
2. Keeping the words on the inside of the cuff, thread the
end of the cuff through the metal bar, Fig 1. The end
of the cuff should be able to fold over onto itself for
securing via the hook and loop closure, Fig 2.
Fig. 1
Fig. 2

ENGLISH • 11
FITTING AND APPLYING YOUR CUFF
Applying Your Cuff
Be seated at a table or desk with your feet at on the
oor. To avoid accidentally pulling on or dropping your
monitor, the cuff should not be plugged into the monitor
until after the cuff is applied to your arm.
1. Remove any constrictive clothing or jewelry that may
interfere with cuff placement.
2. Slide the cuff cylinder onto your left arm and align the
artery mark over the main artery on the inside of your
arm, Fig 3.
The tube should follow the inside length of the arm,
Fig 4.
3. The bottom edge of the cuff should be positioned
approximately one inch above the elbow joint, Fig 5.
4. The INDEX mark arrow should be within the range
bar marking as shown, Fig 6; if the INDEX arrow is
outside of the range, a different sized cuff is needed.
The cuff should t comfortably, yet snugly around your
arm. You should be able to insert one nger easily
between your arm and the cuff.

TAKING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE READING
Please read the preceding portions of this manual
prior to taking your rst reading.
Reminder, it is important to avoid smoking,
eating, taking medication, alcohol consumption
or physical activity 30 minutes prior to taking a
reading.

before the measurement begins.
6. The cuff will automatically inate to
approximately 190mmHg; you will see the
numbers go up on the display screen.
7. When the ination has reached optimum
level, the display will begin to show the
decreasing pressure while you feel the
pressure of the cuff decrease.
