INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Omron IntelliSense™ Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor with Easy Wrap Cuff, HEM-773AC. Although your blood pressure fluctuates throughout the day, no self-adjustment is necessary as the monitor intelligently adjusts to your changing conditions. The IntelliSense™ 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 press 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.
NOTE:
This device is a digital monitor intended for the use in measuring blood pressure and pulse rate in adult population with the arm circumference ranging from 9 inches to 17 inches (from 23 cm to 43 cm).

QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE
1.Avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement.
2.Remove tight-fitting clothing from your upper left arm.
3.Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor and place your left arm on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart.
4.Wrap the arm cuff around your upper left arm, making sure that the bottom edge of the cuff is approximately 1/2'' to 1'' above the elbow.
5.Pull the end of the cuff so that the entire cuff is evenly tightened around your arm, and the Green Marker on the cuff is above the brachial artery.
6.Press the ON/OFF button.
7.After the Heart Symbol (
) appears on the digital panel, press the START button, and remain still until the measurement is complete.
8.When measurement is complete, the monitor displays your blood pressure and pulse rate, and automatically deflates the cuff.
9.Wait 2-3 minutes before taking another blood pressure measurement.
You may require more rest time between readings depending on your individual physiological characteristics.
