INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON®BP742CANN Blood Pressure Monitor.
Your new blood pressure monitor uses the oscillometric method of blood pressure
measurement. This means the monitor detects your blood movement through your
brachial artery and converts the movements into a digital reading. An oscillometric
monitor does not need a stethoscope so the monitor is simple to use.
Intended Use
This device is a digital monitor intended for use in measuring blood pressure and
pulse rate in adult patient population. The device detects the appearance of
irregular heartbeats during measurement and gives a warning signal with the
measurement result.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before using the device.
Please keep for future reference. For specific information about your own blood
pressure, CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Warning: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
(General Usage)
DO NOT adjust medication based on measurement results from this blood
pressure monitor. Take medication as prescribed by your physician. Only a
physician is qualified to diagnose and treat High Blood Pressure.
This device is not intended to be a diagnostic device.
Consult your physician before using the device for any of the following
conditions: common arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature beats or
atrial fibrillation, arterial sclerosis, poor perfusion, diabetes, age, pregnancy, 
pre-eclampsia, renal diseases.
Note that PATIENT motion, trembling, shivering may affect the measurement
reading.
Do not use the device on the injured arm or the arm under medical treatment.
Do not apply the arm cuff on the arm while being on an intravenous drip or blood
transfusion.
Consult your physician before using the device on the arm with an arterio-venous
(A-V) shunt.
Do not use the device with other medical electrical (ME) equipment
simultaneously.
Do not use the device in the area the HF surgical equipment, MRI, or CT scanner
exists, or in the oxygen rich environment.
The air tube or the AC adapter cable may cause accidental strangulation in
infants.
Contained small parts that may cause a choking hazard if swallowed by infants.
(AC Adapter (optional) Usage)
Do not use the AC adapter if the device or the power cord is damaged. Turn off
the power and unplug the power cord immediately.
Plug the AC adapter into the appropriate voltage outlet. Do not use in a 

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Caution: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
may result in minor or moderate injury to the user or patient or
damage to the equipment or other property.
(General Usage)
Always consult your physician. Self-diagnosis of measurement results and self-
treatment are dangerous.
Consult your physician before using the device for any of the following
conditions:
•If you have had a mastectomy.
•People with severe blood flow problems or blood disorders as cuff inflation can
cause bruising.
Do not take measurements more than necessary. It may cause bruising due to
blood flow interference.
Remove the arm cuff if it does not start deflating during the measurement.
Do not use this device on infants or persons who cannot express their intentions.
Do not use the device for any purpose other than measuring blood pressure.
Use only the approved arm cuff for this device. Use of other arm cuffs may result
in incorrect measurement results.
Do not use a mobile phone or other devices that emit electromagnetic fields,
near the device. This may result in incorrect operation of the device.
Do not disassemble the monitor or arm cuff. This may cause an inaccurate
reading.
Do not use in a location with moisture, or a location where water may splash on
the device. This may damage the device.
Do not use the device in a moving vehicle (car, airplane).
Read “If your systolic pressure is more than 210 mmHg” of this instruction
manual, if your systolic pressure is known to be more than 210 mmHg. Inflating
to a higher pressure than necessary may result in bruising where the arm cuff is
applied.

1. KNOW YOUR DEVICE
1.1 Display symbols
Irregular Heartbeat Symbol ( )
When the monitor detects an irregular rhythm
two or more times during the measurement,
the irregular heartbeat symbol will appear on
the display with the measurement values. 
An irregular heartbeat rhythm is defined as a
rhythm that is 25% less or 25% more than the
average rhythm detected while the monitor is
measuring the systolic and diastolic blood
pressure. 
If the irregular heartbeat symbol displays with your measurement results, we
recommend you consult your physician. Follow the directions of your physician.
Movement Error Symbol ( )
The movement error symbol is displayed if you move your body during the
measurement. Please remove the arm cuff, and wait 2 - 3 minutes. 
Take another measurement, remain still during measurement.
Average Value Symbol ( )
The average value symbol is displayed when you press and hold the memory
button for more than 3 seconds. The most recent average value appears on the
display screen.
