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.
The Blood Pressure Monitor is digital monitors intended for use in
measuring blood pressure and heartbeat rate with wrist circumference
ranging from 5-1/2” to 8-1/4” inches (about 13.5 – 21.5 cm). It is
intended for adult indoor use only.
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 an 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.
