5. Positioning cuff
Fit the cuff round your bare left up-
per arm. Blood circulation in the arm
should not be restricted by tight cloth-
ing or other objects.
The cuff should be placed on the
upper arm so that the lower edge is
2 to 3 cm above the bend of the elbow
and above the artery. The tube should
be in line with the centre of the palm.
Now place the free end of the cuff
snugly, but not too tightly, around the
arm, and fix it with the Velcro fastener.
The cuff should be fitted tight enough
to allow just two fingers to fit beneath
the cuff.
Insert the cuff tubing into the socket
for the cuff attachment.
Important: The instrument should only be operated with the
original cuff. The cuff is suitable for an arm circumference of
22 to 32 cm.
