Before using the unit
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON M10-IT Intellisense Upper Arm
Blood Pressure Monitor.
The OMRON M10-IT 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.
Omron’s blood pressure management software included with this unit
allows you to view, manage and print data about blood pressure
measured by the OMRON M10-IT Intellisense. Included software is in
English only.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before using the
unit. For specific information about your own blood pressure,
CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.

Important Safety Information
Important Safety Information
Consult your doctor during pregnancy, arrhythmia and arteriosclerosis.
Use the unit only to store the designated users measurement results.
Please read this section carefully before using the unit.
Caution:
(General Usage)
• Always consult your doctor. You should never stop or change the
dosage of medication prescribed by your doctor.
• Do not leave the unit unattended with infants or persons who cannot
express their consent.

Battery Life & Replacement
If the battery low symbol ( ) appears on the display, replace all four
batteries at the same time.
- When the battery low symbol ( ) starts to blink, you will still be
able to use the unit for a short while. You should replace the
batteries with new ones ahead of time.
- When the symbol ( ) remains lit, the batteries are exhausted. You
should replace the batteries with new ones at once.Turn the unit off
before replacing the batteries.
• Remove the batteries if the unit will not be used for three months or
more.
• If the batteries have been removed for more than 30 seconds, the
Date/Time setting will need to be reset. See Chapter 2.2 for details.
• Dispose of batteries according to applicable local regulations.
Four new “AA”alkaline batteries will last for approximately
1400 measurements, when used to take six measurements a day.
Since the supplied batteries are for monitoring use only, they may have
a shorter life and not last for 1400 measurements.

2. Preparation
2.2 Setting the Date and Time
Your blood pressure monitor automatically stores up to 84 individual
measurement values with the date and time.
To make use of the memory and average values functions:
• Set the unit to the correct date and time before taking a measurement
for the first time.
• If the batteries have been removed for more than 30 seconds, the
Date/Time setting will need to be reset.
1. When the O/I START button is
pressed to turn the unit on for
the first time after inserting
batteries, the year digits
(2007) will flash on the
display.
2. Press the MEMORY button to
advance the digits one at a
time.
Notes:
• The range for the year
setting is 2007 to 2030. If the
year reaches 2030, it will
return to 2007.
• If you hold down the
MEMORY button, the digits
will advance rapidly.
3. Press the SET button to confirm the setting when the desired
number appears on the display.
The year is set and the month digits flash on the display.

2. Refer to Chapter 2.2.2 to start setting the date and time.
With this manual setting of date and time the unit needs to be
manually shut off. It will not automatically turn off after the
minutes have been set.
Notes:
• Please ensure that the date and time have been set correctly so that
the weekly averages will be displayed correctly. If the Date/Time
settings have been accidentally set incorrectly, press the SET button
to circle through the settings in order to adjust to their correct values.
• In the case where the time displays incorrectly after a long period of
non-use of the unit, reset the Date and Time (refer to Chapter 2.2 for
instructions on setting the clock values). Erase the recorded values
when reusing the unit (refer to Chapter 3.5 for directions on erasing
the recorded values).

3.1 How to Sit Correctly When Taking a Measurement
You can take a measurement on either your left or right arm.
Notes:
• Measurements should be taken in a quiet place and you should be in
a relaxed, seated position. Make sure that the room is not too hot or
cold.
• Avoid eating, smoking, or exercising for at least 30 minutes before
taking a measurement.
• Do not move or talk during measurement.
Correct
Posture Remove tight fitting clothing from
your upper arm, and any thick
clothing such as a sweater.
Do not place the cuff over thick
clothes and do not roll up your sleeve
if it is too tight.
Sit upright
with your
back straight. Place your arm on a table so
that the cuff will be at the same
level as your heart.
The gap between the
chair and the top of the
table should be between
25cm to 30cm.

3. Using the Unit
EN
Notes:
• Correct posture during measurement is necessary to get accurate
results.
• You should also try to measure your blood pressure at the same time
each day. (Within 1 hour after waking up is recommended.)
Incorrect Posture
These situations could lead to higher blood pressure values due to
strain or the arm cuff being lower than the heart.
If the arm cuff is at a lower position than your heart use cushions
etc., to adjust the height of your arm.
•Arched back (leaning
forwards)
•Sitting cross-legged
•Sitting on a sofa or at a low
table so that you tend to lean
forward

3.2 Applying the Arm Cuff
You can wrap the cuff either on your right or left arm.
• Remove tight-fitting clothing from your
upper arm.
• Do not place the cuff over thick clothes and
do not roll up your sleeve if it is too tight.
1. Insert the air plug into the air jack (on the left side of the
device).
The cuff must be fully deflated when it is inserted into the air
jack.
2. Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor and place your arm
on a table so that the cuff will be at the same level as your
heart.

3. Hold the grip on the cuff securely
with your hand.
4. Turn the palm of your hand upward.
5. Apply the cuff to your upper arm so that the blue strip is centred
on the middle of your inner arm and points down the inside of
the arm. The air tube should run down the inside of your
forearm and be in line with your middle finger.
The bottom of the cuff should be approximately 1 to 2 cm
above the elbow.

6. When the cuff is positioned correctly,
close the fabric fastener FIRMLY.
Notes:
• Make certain the cuff fits snugly around your arm.
• The cuff should make good contact with your skin. You should
be able to fit your index finger between the cuff and your arm
easily, so you can pull the cuff off and on.
• Make sure that there are no kinks in the air tubing.
Taking measurements on the right arm
Please note the following points when
applying the cuff to your right arm. Apply the
cuff so that the air tube is at the side of your
elbow.
Notes:
• Be careful not to rest your arm on the air
tube, or otherwise restrict the flow of air to
the cuff.
• Apply the arm cuff so that no part of the
cuff is positioned over the elbow joint. The
cuff should be 1 to 2 cm above the elbow.
• If used 2 times per day, the cuff will last for 3 years.
• 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
measurement.
