Before using the unit
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON i-C10 Intellisense Upper Arm
Blood Pressure Monitor.
The OMRON i-C10 Intellisense is a fully automatic blood pressure
monitor, operating on the oscillometric principle. It measures your
blood pressure and pulse rate simply and quickly. For comfortable
controlled inflation without the need for pressure pre-setting or re-
inflation the device uses its advanced “Intellisense” technology.
The monitor stores measurement results for two people and features
morning and evening averages. The auto mode allows for three
consecutive measurements with timed intervals for an average
reading.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before
using the unit. For specific information about your own
blood pressure, CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.
