Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON M3 Intellisense Upper
Arm Blood Pressure Monitor.
The OMRON M3 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 unit also stores up to 42 measurements in memory and
calculates an average reading based on the three most recent
measurements taken within 10 minutes of the last reading. (If
there are only two readings in memory for that period, the
average will be based on two readings. If there is only one
reading in memory for that period, that reading will be
displayed as the average value.)
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before
using the unit. For specific information about your own
blood pressure, CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.

your doctor.
Use the M3 Intellisense only for yourself.
Caution:
• Do not leave the unit unattended with infants or persons who
cannot express their consent.
• Do not use the unit for any purpose other than measuring
blood pressure.
• Do not use a cellular phone near the unit. This may result in
incorrect operation of the unit.
• Do not operate unit in a moving vehicle (car, airplane).
• Do not apply strong shocks and vibrations to or drop the main
unit and arm cuff.
• Please observe the following points.
- Do not insert the batteries with their polarities incorrectly aligned.
- Replace old batteries with new ones immediately.
- When you are not going to use the unit for a long period of time
(approximately three months or more), take out the batteries.
- Do not use new and used batteries together.
- Do not use batteries of a different type together.
- Only use four “AA”manganese or alkaline batteries with this unit.
Do not use other types of batteries.
- When using batteries, the battery liquid may leak and damage the
main unit.
• Do not forcibly bend the arm cuff or bend the air tube
excessively.
• When removing the air tube, pull on the air plug at the

batteries so that the + (positive)
and - (negative) polarities
match the polarities indicated
on the battery compartment.

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 “2.2 Setting
the Date and Time” for details.
• Dispose of batteries according to applicable local regulations.
Four new “AA”alkaline batteries will last for approximately
1500 measurements, when used to take two measurements a
day.
Since the supplied batteries are for monitoring use only, they
may have a shorter life and not last for 1500 measurements.

2.Preparation
2.2 Setting the Date and Time
Your blood pressure monitor automatically stores up to 42
measurements values in its memory and calculates an average
value based on the three most recent measurements taken
within 10 minutes of the last reading. (If there are only two
readings in memory for that period, the average will be based
on two readings. If there is only one reading in memory for that
period, that reading will be displayed as the average value.) 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
(2005) 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 2005 to 2030. If the
year reaches 2030, it will
return to 2005.
• If you hold down the
MEMORY button, the digits
will advance rapidly.
