Inflating The Cuff - visomat Handy CL Gebrauchsanleitung

Operation of the device
4. Inflating the cuff
Switch on the device by pressing the Start/Stop
button. The entire display lights up (segment test).
In this way you can check to make sure that all the
display elements are working properly (Fig. 1).
The automatically controlled inflation process
(Fig. 2) starts after the monitor has calibrated itself
against the ambient air pressure and stops at ap-
prox. 190 mmHg. If that cuff pressure is not sufficient
for measuring blood pressure levels, the device au-
tomatically increases cuff pressure in increments of
approx. 40 mmHg until sufficient pressure has been
reached. The inflation and measuring process can be
discontinued at any time by pressing the Start/Stop
button. To control the inflation processed manually,
keep the Start/Stop button pressed as soon as infla-
tion has started and release it again as soon as cuff
pressure has reached 40 mmHg above the maximum
systolic pressure to be expected. If cuff pressure has
exceeded approx. 190 mmHg, inflation stops as soon
as you let go of the button. The pressure can be
increased up to approx. 280 mmHg.
