· Do not use mobile phones in close range of the unit while measuring blood
pressure.
· Do not attempt to fix or repair the machine under any circumstances. Contact
the Lumiscope Repair Department at 1-800-672-8293 for assistance.
· Clean the unit and cuff carefully with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Do not apply
excess pressure. Do not use solvents or cleaners on either the unit or the
cuff.
· Leaky batteries can damage the unit. Remove the batteries when it will not be
used for a long period of time.

About Blood Pressure
· What is blood pressure?
Blood pressure is the force exerted on the artery tube while blood flows
through the arteries. The pressure measured when the heart contracts and
sends blood out of the heart is called systolic pressure (higher number). The
pressure measured when the heart dilates with blood flowing back into the
heart is called diastolic pressure (lower number).
· Why measure your blood pressure?
Among the various health problems afflicting the population today, problems
associated with high blood pressure are by far the most common. High blood
pressure’s dangerously strong correlation with cardiovascular disease has
made measuring blood pressure a necessity for identifying those at risk.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has developed a blood pressure
standard, according to which areas of low and high-risk blood pressure are
identified. This standard, however, is a general guideline as an individual’s
blood pressure varies between people, age groups, etc.
It is important that you consult with your physician regularly. Your physician
will tell you your normal blood pressure range as well as the point at which
you will be considered at risk for hypertension.
· Blood pressure fluctuation:
Blood pressure fluctuates all the time! You should not be overly worried
if you’ve encountered two or three measurements at higher levels. Blood
pressure changes over the course of the month and even throughout the day.
It is also influenced by other variables like mood, season and temperature.

Helpful Tips:
· Do not measure your blood pressure immediately after consuming a large
meal. To obtain more accurate readings, wait one hour before measuring.
· Do not smoke or drink alcohol before measuring your blood pressure.
· You should not be physically tired or exhausted while taking a measurement.
· It is important that you relax during measurement. Try to take a 15 minute
rest before a reading.
· Do not take measurements if you are under stress or feeling tension.
· Take your blood pressure at normal body temperature. If you are feeling cold
or hot, wait a while before taking a measurement.
· If the monitor is stored at very low temperature (near freezing), place it in a
warm location for at least one hour before using it.
· Always wait at least 5 minutes between measurements.

Introduction:
Measurements taken with your new model 1157 are equivalent to those obtained
by a trained observer using cuff/stethoscope auscultation method, within the
limits prescribed by the American National Standard, Electronic or Automated
Sphygmomanometers. In addition, your 1157 also features:
· Automatic detection and alert of abnormal blood pressure, cuff and sensor
mislocation.
· Automatic correction of systolic pressure.
· Automatic memory storage for 4 users, each containing 31 progressive
memories, each listing date, time, blood pressure reading, pulse rate, and
location of data within World Health Organization (WHO) blood pressure
guidelines.
· Displays location of blood pressure within WHO blood pressure standards
with use of 4 color light-up guide (see below).

Setting up your 1157:
1. Install 4 ‘AA’ batteries as illustrated. (Should the display screen show a
message to replace the batteries, please do so right away. Failure to replace
batteries at once may result in leakage of battery fluid, and in turn cause
damage to the unit.)
2. To use your 1157 without batteries, use ONLY the
included AC adapter. Plug the adapter into the unit
first, then into the wall outlet.
3. Remove cuff from built in storage compartment.
4. Connect the arm cuff to the 1157. The two prong
plug will fit the socket on the left side of the unit only
one way, with the air tube leading towards you.

Applying The Cuff:
The comfortable upper arm cuff may be applied to either the left or right arm. It
will fi t arms ranging from 8” ~ 14” in circumference. Please consult the following
chart to ensure correct application.
Apply the cuff 2 - 3 cm (1 - 1.25 in.) above the elbow, with the orange align-
ment indicator positioned over the main arteries in the arm.
The cuff should be loose enough to fi t two fi ngers between it
and the user’s arm.
LEFT ARM ALIGNMENT
The sensor cord should lead to the
wrist and along the middle fi nger.
RIGHT ARM ALIGNMENT
The sensor cord should follow the inside of the elbow to the pinky fi nger.
Do not apply the cuff over clothing.
Roll sleeves up so that the cuff is in contact with the skin.
If the cuff is too loose, an error message and arm cuff icon will appear on the
display screen. Reapply the cuff properly.
Keep the monitor, arm cuff and heart at the same height.

· Your blood pressure will be analyzed according to the World Health
Organization’s standards, and the light up indicator to the right of the display
will display either a red, yellow, green or orange light for both your systolic
and diastolic pressures. Please refer to the chart on page 6 to determine if
your blood pressure may be classifi ed as Low, Normal, Pre-Hypertensive, or
Hypertensive.
3. This reading will be stored in the next available memory in the current User
Memory Zone. Each zone is capable of storing 31 readings.
4. You may scroll through your readings as they are stored sequentially
by
pressing the Page> button.
5. After you have measured your blood pressure and the memory is
stored, press the Power button again to shut off the monitor.
6. If there are no buttons pressed for 60 seconds, the monitor will
automatically turn itself off.

Setting the Time:
1. Insert an unfolded paper clip into the ‘SET’ hole to enter Set mode. The
small hole is located just below the receptacle for the AC adapter on the right
side of the 1157.
2. The four digit year in the display should start blinking. Press Page>
to advance the year, and <Page to decrease it.
3. Press the Start/Stop button once the year is correct. The hour
should start to blink. Again use the <Page and Page> buttons to adjust the
hour.
4. Press the Start/Stop button once the hour is correct. The minutes should
start to blink. Again use the <Page and Page> to adjust the minutes.
5. When the date and time is correct, press the Power button to return
to normal mode.
