HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR WORKS
This monitor uses innovative GentleInflate™ technology to
detect your blood pressure. With one touch of a button,
the monitor automatically takes the reading during inflation,
then deflates, delivering a quick, comfortable and quiet
measurement every time.
Please note that any muscle movement during inflation will
cause measurement error. When measurement is complete,
the monitor will display your systolic pressure, diastolic
pressure, and pulse readings.
The monitor automatically finds where your measurement
results fall on the NIH’s National Heart Lung and Blood
Institute’s table and provides a cue if your reading falls into
one of the stages that could potentially indicate increased risk.
Please refer to page 20 for more information on this feature.
The appearance of the
icon indicates that a pulse
irregularity consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected
during measurement. Refer to page 21 for more information
on the Irregular Heartbeat Detector.
