The unit inflates the
cuff to a pressure of
about 180 mmHg. The
display indicates the
pressure of the cuff as it rises. In case this

Once inflated, the pump is switched off and the
air in the cuff escapes automatically.
If not already the case, you should now keep
your arm completely still and not speak.
