  2. The cuff will automatically begin to inflate. Remain still and do not talk during this process.
  3. Once the cuff reaches the optimal pressure, it will begin to deflate slowly.
  4. When the measurement is complete, the cuff will deflate fully, and your blood pressure and pulse rate will appear on the screen.
  5. The WHO indicator will highlight the range corresponding to your result.
  6. Press the START/STOP button to turn the unit off, or it will power off automatically after a few minutes.

9. Bluetooth/Data Sync (If applicable to your model)

12. Cleaning, Maintenance, and Storage

Cleaning the monitor:

  • Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the monitor body.
  • For stubborn dirt, dampen cloth with water or mild detergent (70% isopropyl alcohol max).
  • Never immerse the monitor or cuff in water.

Cleaning the cuff:

  • Wipe with a damp cloth using mild soap solution. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  • Air dry naturally. Do not iron.

Maintenance schedule:

  • Every 6 months: Check cuff for cracks or leaks. Test against a known accurate sphygmomanometer at your doctor’s office.
  • Every 2 years or 2000 uses: Return for calibration check (contact manufacturer).

Storage:

  • Keep in a cool, dry place (10°C to 40°C / 50°F to 104°F).
  • Do not store in direct sunlight or a hot car.
  • Remove batteries when storing long-term.

6. Understanding Your Results

Blood pressure is recorded in mmHg (millimeters of mercury).

  • Systolic (High number): The pressure in your blood vessels when your heart beats.
  • Diastolic (Low number): The pressure in your blood vessels when your heart rests between beats.
  • Pulse: Measured in BPM (beats per minute).

WHO Blood Pressure Classification Reference: | Category | Systolic (mmHg) | Diastolic (mmHg) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Optimal | < 120 | < 80 | | Normal | 120 - 129 | 80 - 84 | | High Normal | 130 - 139 | 85 - 89 | | Grade 1 Hypertension (Mild) | 140 - 159 | 90 - 99 | | Grade 2 Hypertension (Moderate)| 160 - 179 | 100 - 109 | | Grade 3 Hypertension (Severe) | ≥ 180 | ≥ 110 |
