To charge, plug the chargers mini-jack to the main unit and connect to the mains.
The red LED near connector should shine. While charging the use of the device is
excluded. The full battery charging time is 15 hours. During charging the red light
becomes weaker and disappears.
The signal of blood flow can be heard thanks to the integrated speaker. The doctor
can listen privately by plugging headphones (the speaker is automatically turned
off). The mini-jack socket is made to plug the charger or the headphones.

3 How to Measure Blood Pressure

Measurement Procedure

1. Place cuff above the vessel to examine.
2. Shave the area where to position the probe or wet hairs with alcohol
(underneath the tail or the carpal pad at the end of the paw or the radial
artery).
3. Put some gel on the probe. Put in contact with the vessel to examine (without
pressure because it would stop or reduce blood flow).
4. Move the probe slightly until you hear the best possible Doppler sound signal.
5. Maintain the probe with your finger or fix it on the skin with a sticking plaster.
6. Inflate the cuff with the sphygmomanometer to block the artery until you hear
no sound signal.
7. Deflate slowly and progressively the cuff.
8. When you hear the sound signal again, it corresponds to the systolic pressure.
9. The diastolic pressure corresponds to a change of the Doppler's tonality.
The detection of diastolic pressure needs experience as well as good operating
conditions.
10. To validate the results, it is recommended to repeat the measurement
procedure 3 times with an interruption of a few minutes.
