• Remove the batteries if the unit will not be used for three months or more.
• Do not use new and used batteries together.
General Precautions
• Do not apply strong shocks and vibrations to or drop the unit and arm cuff.
• Do not take measurements after bathing, drinking alcohol, smoking,
exercising or eating.
• Do not forcibly bend the arm cuff or bend the air tube excessively.
• When removing the air tube, pull on the air plug at the connection with the
main unit not the tube itself.
• Do not inflate the arm cuff when it is not wrapped around your arm.
• Do not wash the arm cuff or immerse it in water.
• Read and follow the "Important information regarding Electro Magnetic
Compatibility (EMC)" in the EMC information provided with this unit.
• Read and follow the "Correct Disposal of This Product" in the Technical Data
Section when disposing of the device and any used accessories or optional
parts.
3. Using the Unit
3.1 Applying the Arm Cuff
E
Be sure to wrap the arm cuff correctly so that you get accurate results.
Measurements can be taken in light clothing. However, please remove
thick clothes, such as sweaters, before taking a reading.
Note: You can take a measurement on either your left or right arm. The blood
D
pressure can differ between the right arm and the left arm and therefore
also the measured blood pressure values can be different. Omron
F
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.

3.2 Taking a Reading
1.
Sit on a chair with your feet flat on
the floor and place your arm on a
table so that the arm cuff will be
at the same level as your heart.
Keep still and do not talk during measurement.
2.
Press the START/STOP button to turn the unit on.
Note: To cancel a measurement, press the START/STOP button to turn the
unit off and to release the air in the arm cuff.
3.
Check the measurement results.

Notes:
• Self-diagnosis of measured results and treatment are dangerous.
Please follow the instructions of your doctor.
• Wait 2-3 minutes before taking another blood pressure reading.
Waiting between readings allows the arteries to return to the condition prior
to taking the blood pressure measurement.
Important:
• If your systolic or diastolic pressure is outside

the standard range, the heartbeat symbol will
blink when the measurement result is displayed.
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 ( ) is shown frequently, please make your
doctor aware of it.
4.
Remove the arm cuff.
5. Press the START/STOP button to turn the unit off.
Note: If you forget to turn the unit off, it will automatically shut itself off after
five minutes.
4. Handling Errors and Problems
What is Irregular Heartbeat?

measurement results are displayed.
What is Arrhythmia?
A heartbeat is stimulated by electrical signals that cause the heart to contract.
Arrhythmia is a condition where the heartbeat rhythm is abnormal due to flaws in
the bio-electrical system that drives the heartbeat. Typical symptoms are
skipped heartbeats, premature contraction, an abnormally rapid (tachycardia) or
slow (bradycardia) pulse. This can be caused by heart disease, aging, physical
predisposition, stress, lack of sleep, fatigue etc. Arrhythmia can only be
diagnosed by a doctor through a special examination.
Whether the appearance of the irregular heartbeat symbol ( ) in the results
indicates arrhythmia or not can only be determined by an examination and
diagnosis by your doctor.
Warning:
If the irregular heartbeat symbol ( ) is shown frequently, please make your doctor
aware of it. Conducting self-diagnosis and treatment based on measurement
results is dangerous. Be sure to follow the instructions of your doctor.
3.3 Instructions for Special Conditions
If your systolic pressure is known to be more than 220 mmHg, press
and hold the START/STOP button until the arm cuff inflates 30 to
40 mmHg higher than your suspected systolic pressure.
