HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR WORKS

This monitor uses innovative technology to detect your systolic
pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse. This technology enables the
monitor to automatically inflate and deflate at the appropriate level for
each individual. With one touch of a button, the cuff will automatically
inflate to block the blood flow through your artery. Next, the deflation
process starts. Please note that any muscle movement during inflation
or deflation will cause measurement error. When measurement is
complete, the monitor will display your systolic pressure, diastolic
pressure, and pulse readings.
The monitor automatically finds where your measurement results
fall on the NIH's National Heart Lung and Blood Institute's table and
provides a cue if your reading falls into one of the stages that could
potentially indicate increased risk. Please refer to page 21 for more
information on this feature.
The appearance of the icon indicates that a pulse irregularity
consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected during
measurement. Refer to page 22 for more information on the Irregular
Heartbeat Detector.
