Thank you for purchasing the OMRON®BP786 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.

prescribed by your physician. Only a physician is qualified to diagnose and treat High Blood Pressure.
The monitor 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 on an intravenous drip or blood transfusion.

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.
• Do not take measurements more than necessary. It may cause bruising due to blood flow interference.
• People with severe blood flow problems or blood disorders as cuff inflation can cause bruising.
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 except when in use
for wireless communications. 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" (page14) 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 cuff is applied.
(AC Adapter Usage)
Fully insert the power plug into the outlet.
When disconnecting the power plug from the outlet, do not pull the power cord. Be sure to pull from the power plug
safely.
When handling the power cord, take care not to do the following:

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.

1. Know Your Device
Blood Pressure Color Indicator
If your Systolic Blood Pressure is 135 mmHg or above and/or the Diastolic Blood Pressure
is 85 mmHg or above, the blood pressure color indicator will light in “orange” when the
measurement result is displayed. If the measurements are within the standard range, the
blood pressure color indicator will light in “green”.
2013 ESH/ESC Guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension
Definitions of hypertension by office and home blood pressure levels
These are from statistical values for blood pressure.
1.2 Before Taking a Measurement
To help ensure an accurate reading, follow these directions:
1. Avoid bathing, drinking alcohol or caffeine, smoking, exercising and eating for 30 minutes before taking a
measurement. Rest for at least 15 minutes before taking the measurement.
2. Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during stressful times.
3. Measurements should be taken in a quiet place.
4. Remove tight-fitting clothing from your arm.
5. Sit on a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Rest your arm on a table so that the arm cuff is at the same level as
your heart.
6. Remain still and do not talk during the measurement.
7. Keep a record of your blood pressure and pulse readings for your physician. A single measurement does not
provide an accurate indication of your true blood pressure. You need to take and record several readings over a
period of time. Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time each day for consistency.

Systolic Blood Pressure ≥140 mmHg ≥135 mmHg
Diastolic Blood Pressure ≥90 mmHg ≥85 mmHg
