WRIST POSITIONING GUIDE
• When using wrist blood pressure monitors, it is important to take
the measurement while relaxing your wrist at heart level. This will
help ensure an accurate reading will be taken. Because it is difficult
to find the ideal location for a wrist measurement, we have included
an optional Wrist Positioning Sensor that will assist in directing your
wrist to the ideal location for a blood pressure measurement.
• After you press
“START/STOP”
button, the display will illuminate
with different icons that are designed to help you move your wrist.
Once the ideal location is found, the wrist symbol
will flash twice
and measurement will begin. Keep your arm still until measurement
is completed.
