HOW THE PULSE OX FIT WORKS
Power Button
Digital Display
Battery Compartment (underside)
The Pulse Ox Fit works by shining two light beams into the small vessels or capillaries of the nger to determine the user’s the blood oxygen saturation percentage and pulse rate that is then displayed on the Pulse Ox Fit’s screen. The unit uses the phrase “SpO2” to identify the oxygen saturation level and displays it as a percentage of full capacity (100%). Pulse rate is identied by the phrase “PR bpm” and is displayed as beats per minute.

USING YOUR PULSE OX FIT
The Deluxe Pulse Oximeter may be used while the user is seated, standing or lying down. The user should not be walking or running during measurements and should take care not to excessively move the arm or hand where the oximeter is attached.
PRIOR TO USE
Keeping the sensors clean will help ensure accurate readings. Before and after each use, carefully swab inside the unit with a soft cloth or cotton swab with rubbing alcohol. Do not pour the alcohol directly on or in the unit.
Dirty hands or nail polish (especially dark shades) can also affect reading accuracy. Washing your hands and/or removing any nail polish prior to use to help ensure accurate readings.
USING YOUR PULSE OX FIT
1. Squeeze the hinged end of the unit to open the measurement side of the unit.
2. Insert your nger nail side up into the unit until resistance is felt. The unit should gently close below the rst knuckle of the nger, and the sensors inside the unit should align with the nger nail and pad at the tip of the nger.
Suitable for use on any nger (excluding the thumb). In our experience, the index or middle nger work best.

4. Solid dashes (–––) will appear on the display for a few seconds, then the display will begin to show the oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate (PR bpm) measurements.
Take care to not move excessively during monitoring. These are active readings and may uctuate slightly as you observe the display, responding to your heart rate (bps) and other factors.
5. The Pulse Ox Fit should only be used for spot-checking blood oxygen saturation and pulse rate and should not remain on the nger for more than a few minutes at a time.
6. Remove the unit from the nger. The unit will automatically turn off after 5 seconds.
7. Clean the unit as directed before storage.
