Your new digital 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. The monitor stores measurement
results.
The HEM-711AC comes with the following components:
• Monitor • Standard Adult Arm Cuff
• AC Adapter • Storage Case
• Warranty Card • Instruction Manual printed in English and Spanish
The HEM-711AC IntelliSense
®
Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor is
intended for home use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using the Monitor
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

SAFETY SYMBOLS USED IN THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, may result in minor or
moderate injury to the user or patient or
damage to the equipment or other property.
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 gets in your eyes, immediately rinse with plenty of
clean water. Contact a physician immediately.
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.

OPERATING THE DEVICE (continued)
Read the Special Conditions section (page 27) 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 manganese or alkaline batteries with this device. Do
not use other types of batteries. This may damage the unit.
RISK OF ELECTRICALSHOCK
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.
SAFETY INFORMATION
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
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 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 about the same time each day for consistency.
8. 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.

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 more than 25% slower
or 25% faster than the average rhythm
detected while the monitor is measuring
the systolic blood pressure and the
diastolic blood pressure.
If the irregular heartbeat symbol ( )
displays with your measurement results,
we recommend you consult your
physician. Follow the directions of your
doctor.
MOVEMENT ERROR SYMBOL( )
The Movement Error Symbol ( ) is displayed if you move your body
during the measurement. Please remove the arm cuff, wait 2-3 minutes,
reapply the arm cuff, then take another measurement.

The American Heart Association recommends the following guideline
for upper limit of normal for home blood pressure readings:
AHA Home Guideline for UpperLimit 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

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.

TAKING A MEASUREMENT
The Heartbeat Symbol flashes on the display during
the measurement.
The Heartbeat Symbol flashes at every heartbeat.
When the measurement is complete, the Heartbeat Symbol
flashes on the display with your blood pressure and pulse rate if
the reading is above 135 for the Systolic Blood Pressure value
and/or 85 for the Diastolic Blood Pressure value.
USING THE MEMORY FUNCTION
The Heartbeat Symbol flashes when the blood pressure reading
stored in the memory is above 135 for the Systolic Blood
Pressure value and/or 85 for the Diastolic Blood Pressure value.
Omron Healthcare recommends you contact your physician if the
HEARTBEAT SYMBOL appears on the display with your measurement
values.
