Introduction; Notes On Safety - Omron HEM-711 Instruction Manual

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Omron Automatic Blood Pressure
Monitor with IntelliSense ™ , HEM-711. Although your blood pressure
fluctuates throughout the day, no self-adjustment is necessary as
the monitor intelligently adjusts to your changing conditions. The
IntelliSense ™ monitor uses fuzzy logic intelligence to sense both
your systolic and diastolic blood pressure values, and the result is
personalized inflation with every reading. Arm discomfort and
misreading due to improper cuff inflation are virtually eliminated.
Your new OMRON monitor uses the oscillometric method of blood
pressure measurement. This means the monitor detects your
blood's movement through your brachial artery and converts the
movements into a digital reading. At the push of a button, the monitor
automatically fills the cuff with air, starts deflation, then displays
your systolic, diastolic, and pulse readings on an extra large display
panel.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before using
this unit. For specific information on your own blood pressure,
CONTACT YOUR PHYSICIAN.
