Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON R2 Wrist Blood Pressure
Monitor.
This remarkable, compact and easy to use instrument is ideal for
people who frequently monitor their own blood pressure. The
small, pre-formed wrist cuff is very convenient and easy to apply.
With a push of a button the OMRON Wrist Blood Pressure
Monitor measures your blood pressure and pulse and displays
the reading on a clear digital panel. Perfect for quick, easy
readings at home, at work, and while travelling. It also stores up
to 30 sets of measurement results in memory.
The OMRON Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor uses the
oscillometric method of blood pressure measurement. This
means the unit detects the pulse wave vibrations in the artery of
your wrist and converts the oscillations into a digital reading.
For comfortable controlled inflation without the need of pressure
pre-setting or re-inflation the device uses its advanced
“IntelliSense” technology.
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 connected.
Frequently measuring the blood pressure in your wrist will
provide you and your doctor with an accurate indication of
changes in your true blood pressure.
Intended Use
This product is designed to measure the blood pressure and
pulse rate of people within the range of the designated wrist cuff,
following the instructions in this instruction manual.
It is mainly designed for general household use. Please read the
Important Safety Information in this instruction manual before
using the unit.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before
using the unit. For specific information about your own
blood pressure, CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.

Battery Life & Replacement
If the battery low symbol ( ) appears on the display,
replace both 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 as soon as possible.
- 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.
• Dispose of batteries according to applicable local
regulations.
• Two new identical 1.5V “AAA” alkaline batteries will last
for approximately 300 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 do not last for 300
measurements.
