Positioning the Pressure Cuff CAUTIONS: • Do not use the unit for any purpose other than measuring blood pressure. Also, do not use the unit in conjunction with other devices. Improper use may cause a malfunction or personal injury. • Keep the unit out of the reach of children. 1. Remove your watch and any jewelry from your left hand. 2. Wrap the cuff around the wrist and secure it with hook-and-loop fastener. The unit can be used by persons with a wrist circumference of 12.5 - 22.0 cm (5" - 8-3/4") (Fig. 4-a). Wrap the pressure cuff around the wrist in such a way that the positioning mark is aligned with the center of the wrist with your wrist bent outwards. 3. In order to secure the blood pressure cuff in the proper position on the wrist, place your right thumb on the shorter side of the cuff (Hook fastener) pressing firmly while attaching to it the longer side of the cuff (Loop fastener). The pressure cuff should be fastened snugly with the display facing outward from your inner wrist (palm side). Make sure that the pressure cuff is fixed firmly against your wrist, while also assuring it is centered on your wrist. If the pressure cuff is too loose, this will result in a false blood pressure measurement. Fig. 4-a Place the top of the unit where your palm meets your wrist.
