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 for two people and features Morning and Evening Averages.
TruRead
TM
allows for three consecutive measurements with timed
intervals for an average reading.
The HEM-775 comes with the following components:

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 should get 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.

SAFETY INFORMATION

OPERATING THE DEVICE (continued)
Read the Special Conditions section (page 35) 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 ELECTRICAL SHOCK

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.

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.

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 in 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.

recommends 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
