INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON BP710NVA Blood Pressure Monitor.
Your new blood pressure monitor uses the oscillometric method of blood pressure
measurement. This means the monitor detects your blood 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.
Intended Use
This device is a digital monitor intended for use in measuring blood pressure and
pulse rate in adult patient population. The device detects the appearance of
irregular heartbeats during measurement and gives a warning signal with the
measurement result.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before using the device.
Please keep for future reference. For specific information about your own blood
pressure, CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Warning: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
(General Usage)
DO NOT adjust medication based on measurement results from this blood
pressure monitor. Take medication as prescribed by your physician. Only a
physician is qualified to diagnose and treat High Blood Pressure.
The monitor is not intended to be a diagnostic device.
Consult your physician before using the device for any of the following
conditions: common arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature beats or
atrial fibrillation, arterial sclerosis, poor perfusion, diabetes, age, pregnancy,
pre-eclampsia, renal diseases.
Note that PATIENT motion, trembling, shivering may affect the measurement
reading.
Do not use the device on the injured arm or the arm under medical treatment.
Do not apply the arm cuff on the arm while being on an intravenous drip or blood
transfusion.
Consult your physician before using the device on the arm with an arterio-venous
(A-V) shunt.
Do not use the device with other medical electrical (ME) equipment
simultaneously.
Do not use the device in the area the HF surgical equipment, MRI, or CT scanner
exists, or in the oxygen rich environment.
The air tube may cause accidental strangulation in children, toddlers or infants.
Contains small parts that may cause a choking hazard if swallowed by children,
toddlers or infants.
(Battery Usage)
Keep the battery out of reach of children, toddlers or infants.
could result in death or serious injury.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Caution: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
(General Usage)
Always consult your physician. Self-diagnosis of measurement results and
self-treatment are dangerous.
Consult your physician before using the device if you have had a mastectomy.
Consult your physician before using the device if you have severe blood flow
problems or blood disorders as cuff inflation can cause bruising.
Do not take measurements more often than necessary. It may cause bruising
due to blood flow interference.
Remove the arm cuff if it does not start deflating during the measurement.
Do not use this device on infants or persons who cannot express their intentions.
Do not use the device for any purpose other than measuring blood pressure.
Use only the approved arm cuff for this device. Use of other arm cuffs may result
in incorrect measurement results.
Do not use a mobile phone or other devices that emit electromagnetic fields,
near the device. This may result in incorrect operation of the device.
Do not disassemble the monitor or arm cuff. This may cause an inaccurate
reading.
Do not use in a location with moisture, or a location where water may splash on
the device. This may damage the device.
Do not use the device in a moving vehicle (car, airplane).
Read “If your systolic pressure is more than 210 mmHg” of this instruction
manual, if your systolic pressure is known to be more than 210 mmHg. Inflating
to a higher pressure than necessary may result in bruising where the arm cuff is
applied.
may result in minor or moderate injury to the user or patient or
damage to the equipment or other property.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
(Battery Usage)
Do not insert the batteries with their polarities incorrectly aligned.
Use only 4 “AA” alkaline or manganese batteries with this device. Do not use
other types of batteries. Do not use new and used batteries together.
Remove the batteries if the device will not be used for three months or more.
General Precautions
• Do not forcibly crease the arm cuff or the air tube excessively.
• Do not press the air tube while taking a measurement.
• To unplug the air plug, pull on the air plug at the connection with the monitor, not
the tube itself.
• Do not drop the monitor or subject device to strong shocks or vibrations.
• Do not inflate the arm cuff when it is not wrapped around your arm.
• Do not use the device outside the specified environment. It may cause an
inaccurate reading.
• Dispose of the device, components and optional accessories according to
applicable local regulations. Unlawful disposal may cause environmental pollution.

1. KNOW YOUR DEVICE
1.1 Display symbols
Irregular Heartbeat Symbol ( )
When the monitor detects an irregular rhythm
two or more times during the measurement,
the irregular heartbeat symbol will appear on
the display with the measurement values.
An irregular heartbeat rhythm is defined as a
rhythm that is 25% less or 25% more than the
average rhythm detected while the monitor is
measuring the systolic and diastolic blood
pressure.
If the irregular heartbeat symbol displays with your measurement results, we
recommend you consult your physician. Follow the directions of your physician.

Movement Error Symbol ( )
The movement error symbol is displayed if you move your body during the
measurement. Please remove the arm cuff, and wait 2 - 3 minutes.
Take another measurement, remain still during measurement.
2013 ESH/ESC Guidelines for the management of arterial
hypertension
Definitions of hypertension by office and home blood pressure levels
Office Home
Systolic Blood Pressure 140 mmHg 135 mmHg
Diastolic Blood Pressure 90 mmHg 85 mmHg
These are from statistical values for blood pressure.

1. KNOW YOUR DEVICE
1.2 Before Taking a Measurement
To help ensure an accurate reading, follow these directions:
1. Avoid bathing, drinking alcohol or caffeine, smoking, exercising and eating for
30 minutes before taking a measurement. Rest for at least 15 minutes before
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
arm cuff is at the same level as your heart.
6. Remain still and do not talk during the measurement.
7. Keep a record of your blood pressure and pulse readings for your physician.
A single measurement does 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 the same time each day for consistency.

2. PREPARATION
2.1 Battery Installation
1. Remove the battery cover.
2. Insert 4 “AA” batteries as indicated
in the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery cover.
Notes:
• When the low battery symbol ( ) appears on the display, turn the monitor
off, then replace all batteries at the same time. Long life alkaline batteries are
recommended.
• The measurement values continue to be stored in memory even after the
batteries are replaced.
• Dispose of the device, components and optional accessories according to
applicable local regulations. Unlawful disposal may cause environmental
