Hi there. First of all relax and don't worry about using that home monitor. It is designed by the same person who designed the tourist class airplane seats.........lol.......one size does not fit all.
that said, any reputable doctors office or druggist will take your bp for free. just for the asking. good luck.

Replacement cuffs are available on eBay. Here is a link to the page. [http://shop.ebay.com.au/?_from=R40&_trksid=p3907.m38.l1311&_nkw=blood+pressure+cuff&_sacat=See-All-Categories ]
SOURCE: Monitor says "EE". BP is low and pulse very fast- won't read.
