INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Omron HEM-412C Manual Inflation Blood Pressure Monitor. This easy-to-use monitor quickly detects your blood pressure and pulse measurements and displays them on a large, clear digital panel.

Your new HEM-412C 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 monitor features an easy-to-squeeze inflation bulb that allows you to quickly fill the cuff with air. Stop pumping and the cuff deflates automatically. Error indicators alert you to incorrect procedures and an automatic power-off function conserves batteries.

Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before using the Omron HEM-412C Manual Inflation Blood Pressure Monitor. For specific information on your own blood pressure, CONTACT YOUR PHYSICIAN.

QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE

1.Avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement.

2.Put your left arm through the cuff loop. The bottom of the cuff should be about 1/2'' above the elbow. The cuff tab should lie over the brachial artery on the inside of the arm.

3.Pull the cuff so that it is tightened evenly around your arm. Press the sewn hook material firmly against the pile side of the cuff. Make sure that your skin will not be pinched in the D-ring once you inflate the cuff. Immediately deflate the cuff and readjust it if skin becomes pinched.

4.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.

5. After the Ready To Measure Symbol ( ) appears next to a zero on the digital panel, quickly squeeze the inflation bulb to inflate the

cuff. Stop pumping when the numbers on the display are approximately 40 mmHg higher than your normal systolic blood pressure.

7.The cuff will deflate automatically. Remain still throughout the entire reading.

8.When measurement is complete, the monitor alternately displays your blood pressure and pulse on the digital panel.

9.Wait 5-10 minutes before taking another blood pressure measurement. You may need more rest time between

readings depending on your individual physical characteristics.
