The Cuff wrapping Guide is a unique feature that indicates if
the cuff is not wrapped tightly enough around the wrist.
If the is displayed, it means the reading is NOT reliable

3. Press the START/STOP button to turn off the
monitor.
The monitor automatically stores the measurement in its
memory.
It will automatically turn off after two minutes.
Important:
• Recent research suggests that the
following values can be used as a
guide to high blood pressure for
measurements taken at home.
Systolic Blood Pressure Above 135 mmHg
Diastolic Blood Pressure Above 85 mmHg
This criteria is for home blood pressure measurement.
• Your blood pressure monitor includes an
irregular heartbeat feature. Irregular
heartbeats can influence the results of the
measurement. The irregular heartbeat
algorithm automatically determines if the
measurement is usable or needs to be
repeated. If the measurement results are
affected by irregular heartbeats but the result
is valid, the result is shown together with the
irregular heartbeat symbol ( ).
If the irregular heartbeats cause the measurement to be
invalid, no result is shown. If the irregular heartbeat symbol
( ) is shown after you have taken a measurement, repeat
the measurement. If the irregular heartbeat symbol (
shown frequently, please make your doctor aware of it.
• If you move during measurement, the
movement error symbol ( ) will appear on
the display. Keep still and repeat the
measurement.

• Wait 2 - 3 minutes before taking another blood
pressure measurement. Waiting between readings

4.1 The Icons and Error Messages

allows the arteries to return to the condition prior to
taking the blood pressure measurement.
Error Display
• The blood pressure can differ between the right arm
and the left arm, and therefore also the measured
blood pressure values can be different. OMRON
recommends to always use the same arm for
measurement. If the values between the two arms
differ substantially, please check with your doctor
which arm to use for your measurement.
Warning:
Self-diagnosis of measured results and treatment are
dangerous. Please follow the instructions of your doctor.

3.5 Using the Memory Function

The unit automatically stores up to 60 sets of measurement
values (blood pressure and pulse rate).
It can also calculate an average reading based on the
measurements from the last three readings taken within 10
minutes. If there are only two readings in memory for that
period, the average will be based on two readings. If there is

Important information regarding Electro Magnetic
Compatibility (EMC)
With the increased number of electronic devices such as PC's and
mobile (cellular) telephones, medical devices in use may be
susceptible to electromagnetic interference from other devices.
Electromagnetic interference may result in incorrect operation of
the medical device and create a potentially unsafe situation.
Medical devices should also not interfere with other devices.
In order to regulate the requirements for EMC (Electro Magnetic
Compatibility) with the aim to prevent unsafe product situations, the

defines the levels of immunity to electromagnetic interferences as
well as maximum levels of electromagnetic emissions for medical
devices.
This medical device manufactured by OMRON HEALTHCARE
conforms to this EN60601-1-2:2007 standard for both immunity and
emissions.
Nevertheless, special precautions need to be observed:
• Do not use mobile (cellular) telephones and other devices, which
generate strong electrical or electromagnetic fields, near the
medical device. This may result in incorrect operation of the unit
and create a potentially unsafe situation. Recommendation is to
keep a minimum distance of 7 m. Verify correct operation of the
device in case the distance is shorter.
