Attaching the cuff
Place the cuff on to the bare left
upper arm. The circulation of the
arm must not be hindered by tight
clothing or similar.
The cuff must be placed on the
upper arm so that the bottom edge
is positioned 2 – 3 cm above the
elbow and over the artery. The line
should point to the centre of the
palm.
Now tighten the free end of the
cuff, but make sure that it is not too
tight around the arm and close the
hook-and-loop fastener. The cuff
should be fastened so that two
fingers can fit under the cuff.
Now insert the cuff line into the
connection for the cuff connector.
