For most Microlife blood pressure monitors, the error 3 indicates that the unit cannot reach the proper pressure in the cuff to start the test. If replacing the batteries doesn't work, check that the cuff is properly plugged into the socket on the monitor. Next you may need to replace the cuff. There may be a leak in the cuff or the hose between the cuff and the socket. Microlife sells replacement blood pressure cuffs here: https://www.microlife.com/consumer-products/blood-pressure/cuffs-and-supplies . These cuffs fit all of their devices except for the wrist versions.
What you show is a model number for a B/P cuff that is not one
shown for CVS. You also do not mention a size for the needed cuff.
Cuffs come in different sizes from Infant, Pediatric, Small Adult, Adult, Large Adult, Thigh.
CVS, and all the different manufacturers sell cuffs to fit monitors. Only the size of the cuff needed matters, and possibly the end fitting if something more is used other than just the rubber hose.
Look up any online company, or your local pharmacy and look for the replacement cuffs for monitors.

Hi. One of the most common error symbol that appears on this display panel is a EE with a down arrow and two numerals. The reason for the EE Error Indicator is usually caused because the cuff has been wrapped too loose. The cuff was under-inflated during the measurement. This error will also display if the cuff is worn and needs to be replaced. The EE symbol with a down arrow indicates the cuff is over-inflated. In most instances the cuff has been wrapped too tight or you are using the incorrect cuff size. Turn the monitor off. Read the instructions to correctly apply the cuff. Wait five to ten minutes then take another measurement. This should correct the issue.
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 ]
An upper arm monitor will come with a cuff that you need to wrap around your arm. If you use a cuff that is the wrong size for you, your reading will not be correct. Measure around your upper arm at the midpoint between your shoulder and elbow. Most monitors will come with a medium sized cuff. You may have to order a different sized cuff separately.
