Thanks much, Chris. Yes the unit has batteries in it but when my sighted friend was trying to pair the device, he got ‘Low battery’ sign.
I would put new battery in tomorrow. Do I have to touch the phone to the device in order to pair it? Thanks!

The wrap always stays connected. In my previous message, please see the part of how to take Blood Pressure. You use the metal bar and as you push it forward, a arm cup is made on the underneath. to the unit. And I honestly do not remember if batteries were included. But the unit takes 4 triple A batteries.

You might have already answer this question and I must have missed your answer due to my limited and insufficient English. If so, I am very sorry for that. Please let me repeat my question; Is the rectangular unit supposed to remain attached to the wrap permanently or is it detachable? Am I supposed to wrap the cuff around my arm with the unit attached to it or witout the unit? Thanks again for your reply covering all aspects of the process.

To open the box, just pull tab out and then the lid of the box lifts up. You will find the unit wrapped in the cup in the box. I personally keep mine in the box when not used to help protect it. Now the unit will automatically turn on and off by itself, so there is no power button. When you unwrap the unit, it automatically turns on, and when you wrap it up, it automatically turns off. Battery compartment. If you unwrap the unit by rolling it toward you, so when you are done, the unit is close to you, and the cup wrap is away from you. Then the battery compartment is on the right side at the end. You will find an indented button on the underside of that end. Just press that indented button, and the end will pop off so you can put in the batteries. Paring it to your phone. I actually do not remember the steps, but you first have to install the app and create an account. Try unwrapping it with the app open and you might get a pop up that it has been detected. I do know that paring it is easy. Taking Blood Pressure. First, start the app, double tap the menu button at the top, then swipe and choose Qardio Arm. Now, to put it on. Note, if you unwrap it by rolling it toward you, a little down from the top of the cup on the right side, you will find a hard like plastic thing embedded in the fabric. Just make sure that this plastic thing faces away from you when putting it on. Qardio Arm put that there specifically to help us know which way to put it on. Now after unrolling it, with the unit close to you, and the wrap away from you, push the metal bar away from you while pulling the wrap toward you. This will make a arm cup on the underneath. Once you have it to the size for your arm, just slide it on and fold the remaining over the bar and fasten with the velcro. According to Qardio. Your arm should be at or above heart level, and you should sit for about 10 minutes prior to taking it. This will give you the best and most accurate results. When your ready, just double tap the take measurement button in the app and it will start. Once done, your Blood Pressure and pulse will be displayed on the screen. Swipe down to the bottom of the screen and you will find a button. Double tap it to finish it and save it to your history. Note, in an update of the app, the button was mislabeled. It says cancel, but as long as it is at the bottom of the screen then that is the right one. Hope this helps.

The rectangular box is attached and wrapped in Blood Pressure Cuff, is this box supposed to remain attached even when I would wear the cuff? If not, how can I detach the unit from the cuff, please?
