Your new blood pressure 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. An oscillometric monitor does not need a stethoscope so the monitor is simple to use.
The BP762 comes with the following components:
• Monitor |
• ComFitTM Cuff • AC Adapter |
•Storage Case
•Instruction Manual printed in English and Spanish
•Quick Start Guide
The 7 series Plus BP762 Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor is intended for home use.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before using the unit. Please keep for future reference.

SAFETY INFORMATION
OPERATING THE DEVICE (continued)
This device is intended for use in measuring blood pressure and pulse rate in the adult population. Do not use this device on infants or persons who cannot express their intentions.
Read the Special Conditions section (page 29) of the instruction manual if your systolic pressure is known to be more than 220 mmHg. Inflating to a higher pressure than necessary may result in bruising where the cuff is applied.
Operate the device only as intended. Do not use the device for any other purpose.
Dispose of the device, components and optional accessories according to applicable local regulations. Unlawful disposal may cause environmental pollution.
Do not use a cellular phone near the device. It may result in an operational failure.
Use only Omron authorized parts and accessories. Parts and accessories not approved for use with the device may damage the unit.
Use only 1.5V alkaline batteries with this device.
Do not use other types of batteries. This may damage the unit.

SAFETY INFORMATION
Do not plug or unplug the power cord into the electrical outlet with wet hands.
Do not overload power outlets. Plug the device into the appropriate voltage outlet.
Do not subject the monitor to strong shocks, such as dropping the unit on the floor.

To ensure a reliable reading follow these recommendations:
1.Avoid eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, exercising, and bathing for 30 minutes prior to taking a measurement. Rest for at least 15 minutes prior to taking the measurement.
2.Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during stressful times.
3.Measurements should be taken in a quiet place.
4.Remove tight-fitting clothing from your arm.
5.Sit on a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Rest your arm on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart.
6.Remain still and do not talk during the measurement.
7.Wait 2-3 minutes between measurements. The wait time allows the arteries to return to the condition prior to taking the blood pressure measurement. You may need to increase the wait time depending on your individual physiological characteristics.
8.Keep a record of your blood pressure and pulse readings for your physician. A single measurement may not provide an accurate indication of your true blood pressure. You need to take and record several readings over a period of time. Try to measure your blood pressure at about the same time each day for consistency.
