INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Omron®HEM-670IT Wrist Blood Pressure
Monitor with Advanced Positioning Sensor (APS

®

) and PC Software.

The Omron wrist monitor uses the oscillometric method of blood pressure
measurement. This means the monitor detects your blood’s movement
through the artery in your wrist and converts the movements into a digital
reading.

Clinical research has proven a direct relationship between blood pressure
in the wrist and blood pressure in the arm. Changes in wrist blood
pressure reflect changes in arm blood pressure because the arteries in the
arm and wrist connect.

The software included with this monitor can help you provide important
trending information for your physician of changes in your blood pressure.

The HEM-670IT comes with the following components:

• Main Unit • 2 “AAA” Batteries • Storage Case

• Warranty Card • Serial/USB Cable • CD-ROM

• Instruction Manual printed in English and Spanish
The Omron HEM-670IT Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor is intended for

home use.

Fill in for future reference.

OPERATING THE DEVICE

Contact your physician for specific information about your blood
pressure. Self-diagnosis and treatment using measured results may be
dangerous. Follow the instructions of your physician or licensed
healthcare provider.

If battery fluid should get in your eyes, immediately rinse with plenty
of clean water. Contact a physician immediately.

If you have a condition that may compromise circulation, you may
get an inaccurate reading with this device. Consult your physician
before using this device.

Read all of the information in the instruction manual and any other
literature in the box before operating the unit.

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.

SAFETY INFORMATION

To assure the correct use of the product basic safety measures should
always be followed including the warnings and cautions listed in this
instruction manual.

WARNING

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.

SAFETY INFORMATION

OPERATING THE DEVICE (continued)

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.

Do not play the CD-ROM disc included with this monitor on general
audio players, DVD players or personal game devices. It may
damage the speaker of the device and may harm your eardrums.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Do not subject the monitor to strong shocks, such as dropping the unit
on the floor.

Do not submerge the device or any of the components in water.

Store the device and the components in a clean, safe location.

Changes or modification not approved by Omron Healthcare will void
the user warranty. Do not disassemble or attempt to repair the unit or
components.

BEFORE TAKING A MEASUREMENT

To ensure a reliable reading follow these recommendations:

1. Avoid eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, exercising and bathing for at
least 30 minutes before taking measurement. Rest for at least 15
minutes before taking a measurement.

2. Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking
measurements during stressful times.

3. The cuff can be applied to your left or right
wrist.

4. Measurements should be taken in a quiet place
and you should be in a relaxed, seated position.

5. Remain still and do not talk during the
measurements.

6. Keep a record of your blood pressure and pulse 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 the same time
each day for consistency.

The American Heart Association1recommends the following guideline
for upper limit of normal for home blood pressure readings:

AHA Home Guideline for Upper Limit of Normal BP

Systolic Blood Pressure 135 mmHg
Diastolic Blood Pressure 85 mmHg
This is a general guideline because blood pressure depends on

age and morbidity. The AHA recommends a lower home blood
pressure goal for certain patients, including diabetic patients,
pregnant women, and patients with renal failure

The monitor is not intended to be a diagnostic device.

WARNING

Contact your physician for specific information about your blood
pressure. Self-diagnosis and treatment using measured results may be
dangerous. Follow the instructions of your physician or licensed
healthcare provider.

Omron Healthcare recommends you contact your physician if the
MORNING HYPERTENSION SYMBOL and/or the HEARTBEAT
SYMBOL appear on the display with your measurement values.

MORNING HYPERTENSION SYMBOL ( )

The Morning Hypertension Symbol is displayed if the morning average
reading for a week is above 135 for the Systolic Blood Pressure value

APPLYING THE WRIST CUFF

The monitor is designed to take measurements on the left wrist or the right
wrist. The monitor is set to take measurements on the left wrist at the time
of purchase.

CAUTION

Read all of the information in the instruction manual and any other
literature in the box before operating the unit.

CAUTION

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.

31

APPLYING THE WRIST CUFF ON THE LEFT WRIST

1. Roll up sleeve. Make sure your sleeve is not
rolled up too tightly on your arm. This may
constrict the flow of blood in your arm.

2. Wrap the cuff directly against your skin.
Do not apply over clothing. Place the cuff
over your left wrist with your left thumb
facing upward.

3. Position the cuff leaving a clearance of
approximately 1/2 to 1 inch between the cuff
and the bottom of your palm as illustrated.

4. Hold the bottom part of the cuff and wrap it around the
wrist so it fits comfortably and securely around your
wrist.

5. Fold the remaining part of the wrist cuff back out of
the way. Lightly press the cloth closure with your
finger so the cuff is securely fastened.

APPLYING THE WRIST CUFF

32

APPLYING THE WRIST CUFF

NOTES:

• If the cuff is not securely fastened, the wrist cuff may become loose
during measurement and the measurement may not be possible.

• Users with a wrist circumference of less than 5 3/4 inches may feel
the wrist cuff move if the cloth fastener is not wrapped snugly. In
this case, do not wrap the wrist cuff any tighter, it will not affect the
measurement.

• Fold and fasten the extra portion of wrist cuff as
shown to the right. If the extra portion of wrist
cuff is not fastened, it will not affect the
measurement.

APPLYING THE WRIST CUFF ON THE RIGHT WRIST

When taking a measurement using the right wrist,
position the cuff as shown in the illustration. Make
sure the right wrist measurement symbol is displayed.
To change the setting, refer to Setting the Measurement Wrist.

33

CAUTION

Operate the device only as intended. Do not use the device for any
other purpose.

CAUTION

Do not use a cellular phone near the device. It may result in an
operational failure.

USING THE SINGLE READ MODE
