Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON M6 Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor.
Display:
The OMRON M6 is a compact, fully automatic blood pressure monitor,
operating on the oscillometric principle. It measures your blood pressure and

Notes:
• When you take a measurement on the right
arm, air tube will be at the side of your
elbow. Be careful not to rest your arm on
the air tube.
• 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 physician which arm to use for your

functioning correctly, the Dual Check System lamp remains lit during
the measurement. If an error is detected, the Dual Check System lamp
flashes and "Er" will appear on the display.
Cuff Wrapping Guide
This monitor checks whether the cuff is applied correctly during the
inflation. When the cuff is applied correctly, is displayed while
taking a measurement or using the memory function. If the cuff is not
applied correctly, is displayed. Carefully read and repeat the steps
listed under section 3.1.

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 EN60601-1-2:2007
standard has been implemented. This standard 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.
Further documentation in accordance with EN60601-1-2:2007 is available at
OMRON Healthcare Europe at the address mentioned in this instruction manual.
