Digital Blood Pressure Monitor Model 7654 Instruction Manual Important Notes Please read this manual carefully before using this device. This Blood Pressure Monitor is intended for use by adults only. Children should not use this monitor unless it is under the supervision of an adult. Only a physician is qualified to interpret changes in your blood pressure. This device is not intended to replace regular medical examinations. It is recommended that your physician review your procedure for using this monitor. Never make adjustments to your medicaiton unless it is the advice of a physician. Please read these instructions carefully for accurate measurements PARTS IDEWTIFICATION Systolic Display Diastolic Display Pulse Display Air Connector Start/Stop Switch Memory Switch Straight Plug Air Hose Arm Cuff PLEASEREADTHESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY Installing Batteries 1. Remove the battery cover from bottom of unit. Insert four VA” size batteries as shown, taking care to observe the proper direction for each battery. Use of alkaline batteries is recommended. 2. Replace battery cover. Important Notes • Replace all four batteries if the low battery symbol appears on the display. l• Remove batteries if storing the unit more than six months without use. Never leave dead batteries in an unit since they may leak and cause damage. Memory data will be cleared when batteries are changed or become exhausted. Proper Use of the Arm Cuff 1. Please relax and remain seated or reclined in a quiet location for 5 to 10 minutes prior to taking a measurement. 2. Remove any clothing on the upper arm so that the cuff can be placed directly on the skin. Constriction of the upper arm caused by rolling up a shirt sleeve may cause an inaccurate reading. Avoid this condition by completely removing the garment causing the constriction. 3. Wrap the cuff around the upper arm as shown in the diagram on page 3. The lower edge of the cuff (edge with air hose attached) should be about 1 inch above the elbow. Position the cuff so that the hose runs along the inside of the left arm. 4. Insert the straight plug on the end of the arm cuff air hose into the air connector on the unit. 5. Relax for a few more minutes after the cuff is applied before beginning the measurement. Pane 3 1 inch (2-3 cm) Measuring Your Blood Pressure 1. Place the cuff on the arm that will be used for the measurement (preferably the left arm). See previous section on proper cuff placement. 2. Press the START/STOP switch. When the START/STOP switch is pressed, all of the display symbols will appear for about one second. When the “0” is displayed, the meter is calibrating it’s zero point. If there was still some air in the arm cuff, it will be exhausted at this time. The micropump will pressurize the cuff. Note: The cuff will become very tight. Don’t be alarmed, as this is normal. Page 3 If the START/STOP switch is pressed again during pressurization or during the measurement, the pump will stop and the air will be released from the cuff. 3. When pressurization has been completed, the automatic exhaust mechanism will gradually reduce the pressure in the cuff and the Measurement in Progress symbol will appear along with the current pressure reading. This symbol will blink in unison with the pulse of the person being monitored. The subject should remain still while the meter is in operation. The monitor will automatically pump to a higher pressure if the initial starting pressure was insufficient. If needed, the start pressure can be set manually. Press the START/STOP button and hold it down until the display shows a pressure 30 to 40 mmHg above your normal systolic blood pressure, then release. The meter will then start from that pressure. If you have any questions, call customer service. 4. The Systolic Pressure is displayed on the upper portion of the display, the Diastolic Pressure in the center of the display and the pulse in the lower portion of the display.

Subsequent Measurements If a subsequent measurement is required, turn off the power and turn it on again. When the “0” is displayed, the meter is ready for measurement again. Note: Please wait for about 10 minutes before repeating the measurement, 8. Automatic Power OFF Function If this meter is left on after a measurement, it will turn itself off after about 1 minute. It may be turned off at any time by pressing the START/STOP switch. If the unit was unable to make a measurement, “Err” will appear on the display. Please wait 5-10 minutes before attempting another measurement, Review the procedure for proper cuff placement, and try to remain as still as possible while the measurement is taking place.
