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 an arm circumference ranging from 8.6” to
16.5” inches (about 22 – 42 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 a Veridian 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.

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 your arm is within the appropriate
cuff range:
Arm Circumference Range Suitable for
8.6” – 16.5” (22 – 42 cm).
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,
Fig 1. If your arm is outside of this range, this device may not be suitable for you
and your results may be inaccurate.
Reminder, it is important to avoid smoking, eating, taking medication, alcohol
consumption or physical activity 30 minutes prior to taking a reading.
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.

ENGLISH • 13
FITTING AND APPLYING YOUR CUFF
Applying Your Cuff

jewelry that may interfere with cuff
placement.
2. Be seated at a table or desk with your
feet at on the oor.

be able to insert one nger easily
between your arm and the cuff.
If you are not comfortable with applying your cuff,
please seek the assistance of another member of your
household or work with your physician to practice the
cuff application. Incorrectly applied cuffs may result in
inaccurate readings.

Irregular Heartbeat Detector
An irregular heartbeat is dened as a heartbeat rhythm that is more than 25%
slower or 25% faster than the average measurement detected while the monitor is
conducting the measurement. When this device detects an irregular rhythm two or
more times during the reading, the IHB symbol will appear on the display screen.
This monitor will operate if the icon appears, but the results may be compromised,
especially if this symbol appears often. Please consult with your physician or
trained healthcare professional for further information regarding an irregular
heartbeat and if this symbol appears frequently.
