How do I evaluate my blood pressure?
The higher value is the one that determines the evaluation.
Example: a readout value between 150/85 or 120/98 mmHg indi-
cates «blood pressure too high».
2. Using the Instrument for the First Time
Activating the fitted batteries
Pull out the protective strip from the battery compartment AT.
Setting the date and time
1. After the new batteries are fitted, the year number flashes in the
display. You can set the year by pressing the M-button 2. To
confirm and then set the month, press the time button 5.
2. Press the M-button to set the month. Press the time button to
confirm and then set the day.
3. Follow the instructions above to set the day, hour and minutes.
4. Once you have set the minutes and pressed the time button, the
date and time are set and the time is displayed.
5. If you want to change the date and time, press and hold the time
button down for approx. 3 seconds until the year number starts
to flash. Now you can enter the new values as described above.
Selecting the correct cuff
Microlife offers different cuff sizes. Select the cuff size to match the
circumference of your upper arms (measured by close fitting in the
centre of the upper arm).
Optional preformed cuffs «Easy» are available.
Only use Microlife cuffs.
Contact Microlife Service if the enclosed cuff 6 does not fit.
Connect the cuff to the instrument by inserting the cuff
connector 7 into the cuff socket 4 as far as it will go.
Select the measuring mode: standard or MAM mode
This instrument enables you to select either standard (standard
single measurement) or MAM mode (automatic triple measure-
ment). To select standard mode, slide the MAM switch AK on the
side of the instrument downwards to position «1» and to select
MAM mode, slide this switch upwards to position «3».
MAM Mode
In MAM mode, 3 measurements are automatically taken in
succession and the result is then automatically analysed and
displayed. Because the blood pressure constantly fluctuates, a
result determined in this way is more reliable than one produced
by a single measurement.
After pressing the ON/OFF button 1, the selected MAM mode
appears in the display as the MAM-symbol BK.
The bottom, right hand section of the display shows a 1, 2 or 3 to
indicate which of the 3 measurements is currently being taken.
There is a break of 15 seconds between the measurements
(15 seconds are adequate according to «Blood Pressure Moni-
toring, 2001, 6:145-147» for oscillometric instruments). A count
down indicates the remaining time and a beep will sound
5 seconds before the 2nd and 3rd readings will begin.
The individual results are not displayed. Your blood pressure
will only be displayed after all 3 measurements are taken.
Do not remove the cuff between measurements.
If one of the individual measurements was questionable, a
fourth one is automatically taken.
