Although your blood pressure fluctuates throughout the day, no self-adjustment is necessary as the monitor intelligently adjusts to your changing conditions. The IntelliSenseTM monitor uses fuzzy logic intelligence to sense both your systolic and diastolic blood pressure values, and the result is personalized inflation with every reading. Arm discomfort and misreading due to improper cuff inflation are virtually eliminated. Your new OMRON monitor uses the oscillometric method of blood pressure measurement. This means the monitor detects your blood's movement through your brachial artery and converts the movements into a digital reading. At the push of a button, the monitor automatically fills the cuff with air, starts deflation, then displays your systolic, diastolic, and pulse readings on an extra large display panel. Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before using this unit. For specific information on your own blood pressure, CONTACT YOUR PHYSICIAN.

Press the ON/OFF button. a) All display symbols appear for approximately one second. b) When the monitor becomes ready to measure, the Heart Symbol appears on the display. 2. Press the START button and remain still. As the cuff begins to inflate, the monitor automatically determines your ideal inflation level. Because this monitor detects the pulse even during inflation, do not move your arm and remain still until the entire measurement completes. Initial LCD Test 3. Inflation stops automatically and measurement is started. As the cuff slowly deflates, decreasing numbers appear on the display and the Heart Symbol ( ) flashes at every heartbeat. In rare circumstances, a higher inflation may be necessary. In those cases, the monitor reinflates the cuff up to 30 mmHg higher than initial inflation and restarts the measurement. Ready to Measure Inflation started. 4. When the measurement is complete, the arm cuff completely deflates and your blood pressure and pulse rate are displayed. NOTE: The monitor automatically stores blood pressure and pulse rate into the memory. 5. Press the ON/OFF button to turn the monitor off. NOTE: If you forget to turn the monitor off, it will automatically shut itself off after five minutes. 10 11 HOW TO TAKE A READING TITLE Instructions for special conditions: · If your systolic pressure is known to be more than 220 mmHg, push and hold the START button until the monitor inflates 30 to 40 mmHg higher than your suspected systolic pressure. NOTE: Do not apply more pressure than necessary. The monitor will not inflate above 300 mmHg. · If you want to stop the measurement, push the ON/OFF button. The monitor will stop inflating and start deflating rapidly, then the monitor will power off. HOW TO USE THE MEMORY FUNCTION TITLE This monitor has a memory capable of storing fourteen sets of readings. Every time you complete the measurement, the monitor automatically stores blood pressure and pulse rate. · Push the button to recall stored readings while the Heart Symbol ( ) is displayed. · When the memory is holding fourteen sets of readings, the oldest set will be deleted to store a new set. Last reading START Value before the last reading Value of fourteen readings before Continue to press button · To delete stored readings, press the button and the Start button at once, then all the readings will be deleted. NOTE: You can not delete the stored readings partially. START Press these two buttons at the same time.
