Taking Measurements with the Microlife Cardio+

measurement.
• Sit down and relax for at least 5 minutes before taking a
measurement.
Relax 5 mins
• Always take measurements on the same arm (normally the left).
• Remove close-tting clothing from the upper arm. To avoid
constriction, your shirt sleeve should not be rolled up; it will not
interfere with the cuff if it is laid at.
• Fit the cuff closely, but not too tightly. Make sure that the cuff is
2 cm (0.75 inches) above your elbow, with the tube on the inside of your arm.
• Support your arm so that it is relaxed. Ensure that the cuff is at the
same height as your heart.
