SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON®HEM-650 Automatic
Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor with A.P.S.®.
Fill-in for future reference
DATE PURCHASED: ________________
SERIAL NUMBER: __________________
Staple your purchase receipt here.
The monitor is compact and easy-to-use at home, at work, and
during travel. Perfect for people who frequently monitor their
own blood pressure.
OMRON®digital blood pressure monitors use the oscillometric method
of blood pressure measurement. This means the monitor detects your
blood’smovement through your artery and converts the movements
into a digital reading. An oscillometric monitor does not need a
stethoscope so the monitor is simple to use.
Clinical research has proven a direct relationship between blood
pressure in the wrist and blood pressure in the arm. Changes in
wrist blood pressure reflect changes in arm blood pressure
because the arteries in the wrist and the arm are close to each
other. Frequently measuring the blood pressure in your wrist
will provide your physician with an accurate indication of
changes in your blood pressure.
The OMRON®HEM-650 Automatic Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor
with A.P.S.®is intended for home use.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
4
To assure the correct use of the product basic safety measures
should always be followed including the precautions listed below:
þConsult your physician before measuring blood pressure at
the wrist if you have any of the following conditions:
severe hypertension, severe diabetes, severe arteriosclerosis,
severe kidney disease, or vascular disease that may
compromise circulation.
þRead all information in the instruction book and any other
literature included in the box before using the unit.
þContact your physician for specific information about your blood
pressure. Follow the instructions of your healthcare provider.
þOperate the unit only as intended. Do not use for
any other purpose.
þThe unit is intended for use in measuring blood pressure and
pulse rate in adult patient population. Do not use on infants.
þDo not use a cellular phone near the unit. It may result in
operational failure.
þChanges or modifications not approved by Omron Healthcare
will void the user warranty. Do not disassemble or attempt to
repair the unit or components.

BEFORE TAKING A MEASUREMENT
5
1. Avoid eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, exercising and bathing
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. The cuff can be applied to your left or right wrist. Always
measure your blood pressure on the same wrist.
4. Measurements should be taken in a quiet place.
5. Position the unit at heart level throughout the measurement.
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.
8. Wait 2-3 minutes between measurements. The wait time allows
the arteries to return to the condition prior to taking the blood
pressure measurement. You may need to increase the wait time
depending on your individual physiological characteristics.

APPLYING THE WRIST CUFF
Wrapping the wrist cuff is one of the most important points for
taking a correct measurement.
APPLYING THE CUFF ON THE LEFT WRIST
1. Roll up sleeve. Make sure your sleeve is not
rolled up too tightly on your arm. This may
constrict the flow of blood in your arm.
2. Wrap the cuff directly against your skin.
Do not apply over clothing. Place the cuff over
your left wrist with your left thumb facing upward.
3. Position the cuff leaving a clearance of approximately
1/2 to 1 inch between the cuff and the bottom of your palm.
4. Hold the bottom part of the cuffand wrap it
around the wrist so it fits comfortably and
securely around your wrist.
NOTE: Make sure the wrist cuff does not
cover the protruding part of the wrist bone
on the outside of the wrist.
5. Fold the remaining part of the wrist cuffback
out of the way.
APPLYING THE CUFF ON THE RIGHT WRIST
When taking a measurement using the right
wrist position the cuffas shown in the
illustration.
Make sure the right wrist measurement symbol
is displayed. Refer to page 10, Wrist
Measurement Selection to select “on”.

4. Description of position sensor activity during measurement.
Adjust the height of your wrist until the position sensor alarm beeps
slowly. When the monitor senses that your arm is in the correct
position, the wrist cuff will automatically start to inflate and
measurement starts.
NOTE: If your wrist is too lowor too high, the position sensor
alarm will emit a series of two short bleeps similar to
aheartbeat.
The current time is displayed and the Heart Symbol starts to flash
while the cuff is inflating.
Hold the monitor at heart level until the measurement is completed.

Every time you complete a measurement the monitor stores the
blood pressure and pulse rate in the memory. The Blood Pressure
Monitor automatically stores up to 90 measurement values. When 90
sets of measurement values are stored in the memory, the oldest
record is deleted to save the most recent measurement values.
The monitor also calculates an average reading based on the values
of the three most recent measurements taken. If the date and time is
not set, the measurement values will not be stored in the memory
correctly.
TO DISPLAY THE AVERAGE VALUE
1. Press the MEM button. The average value symbol will display
