Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON MIT Elite Upper Arm Blood
Pressure Monitor.
The OMRON MIT Elite 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 90 measurements in memory and calculates
an average reading based on the three most recent measurements
taken within 10 minutes of the last reading.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before
using the unit. For specific information about your own
blood pressure, CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.
