(General Usage)
• 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.
• Use only the approved arm cuff for this unit. Use of other arm cuffs may result in incorrect measurement results.
• Make sure that the air tube is not wrapped around other parts of your body when taking measurements at night.
This could result in injury when the air pressure in the air tube is increased.
• Do not leave the cuff wrapped on the arm if taking measurements during the night. This could result in injury.
• Do not use a mobile phone or other devices that emit electromagnetic fields, near the unit. This may result in
incorrect operation of the unit.

Do not place the cuff over thick clothes.
1. Insert the air plug into the air jack.

Notes:
• When you take a measurement on the right arm, air tube will be at the side of your elbow. Be careful not
to rest your arm on the air tube. ---
• 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.
