. Notes for Proper
1. Attach the arm cuff at the proper position of the arm
as high as the level of th heart.
2. Do not. give vibration to the instrument during
measurement, or proper measurement will not be
achieved.
3. Perform measurement quietly in a relaxed posture.
4.
Do not wind the arm cuff over jacket or sweater sleeve,
or measurement cannot be done. Also, if the upper
arm is squeezed by the shirt sleeve rolled up to the upper arm, proper measurement results will not be obtained.
5. Blood pressure naturally varies from time to time
throughout the day.
6. Although such cases are rare, for subjectshaving an
extremely weak pulse or irregular pulse, errors may
result which prevent proper measurement. If such ab-
normal variations are noticed, consult your physician
or the sales representative -from which you purchased
this instrument.

Preparation for Measurements
1. Installing Batteries
Remove the battery cover and insert batteries into the battery
compartment as shown, taking extreme care that the polarities

2. Attaching the Arm Cuff
Wind the arm cuff around the left upper arm tightly so that the
tom edge of the cuff is positioned one inch above the elbow joint.

Exhaust
1.
The exhaust velocity is the rate of gradual pressure drop from the
pressure applied manually using the rubber bulb.
2. The exhaust condition is displayed in the right portion of the
display from the time of pressurization until the measurement
mark starts flashing.
3. This unit is adjusted so that the exhaust velocity is l -5mm Hg/s
at 150 mmHg.
0 Note that if this exhaust velocity is not proper, correct
measurements are not possible.

More About Blood Pressure Measurements
What is Blood Pressure?
The blood pressure will reach its highest levels in the large arteries
near the heart and drop off toward the peripheral areas of the cir-
culatory system.
The blood pressure varies in accordance with the beating of the
heart, and when the heart contracts, squeezing the blood out, the
pressure inside the blood vessels is said to be systolic, and when the
heart expands, sucking the blood back in, the pressure of the blood
inside the blood vessels is said to be diastolic.
Hypertension, which is most common among adults and the old, if
left unattended, can cause many health problems including stroke,
heart attack, etc. It is therefore necessary to control the blood
pressure to prevent it from becoming high, by reducing salt, dietary
regimens, and by controlling thesubject’s activities. Even people who
are born with high blood pressure can prevent the progress of high
blood pressure by means of adequate control.
Why Is It a Good Thing to Measure
Blood Pressure at Home?
Having one’s blood pressure measured by a doctor in a hospital or a
clinic, and group health checks, tend to stimulate nervousness in the
subject and may even create sufferers of high blood pressure. Also
blood pressures varies in accordance with a variety of conditions, and
so judgement is not possible on the basis of a single measurement.
The blood pressure measured first thing in the morning after get-
ting up, before taking any food, and with the subject still, is known as
the fundamental blood pressure. In practice it is rather difficult to
record the fundamental blood pressure, but to come as near as possible to measuring the blood pressure in an environment that is close
to this, it is useful to be able to take the measurement
Further, you could carry out your own blood pressure control with
your own blood pressure monitor at home to take blood pressure
readings on a regular basis.
