Before Using the Monitor
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing ReliOn®HEM-412CREL Manual Inflation
Blood Pressure Monitor
Fill in for future reference.

Staple your purchase receipt here
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. An oscillometric monitor does not
need a stethoscope so the monitor is simple to use.
The HEM-412CREL comes with the following components:
• Main Unit • Arm Cuff
• Inflation Bulb
• Instruction Manual printed in English and Spanish
The HEM-412CREL Manual Inflation Blood Pressure Monitor is
intended for home use.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
To assure the correct use of the product basic safety measures should
always be followed including the precautions listed below:
þ Read all information in the instruction book and any other literature
included in the box before using the unit.
þ Contact your physician for specific information about your blood
pressure. Follow the instructions of your healthcare provider.
þ Operate the unit only as intended. Do not use for any other purpose.
þ The unit is intended for use in measuring blood pressure and pulse
rate in adult patient population. Do not use on infants.
þ Do not use a cellular phone near the unit. It may result in operational
failure.
þ Changes or modifications not approved by the manufacturer 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, smoking, and exercising 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 left arm.
5. Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Rest your left 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 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.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Low Battery Indicator
When the Low Battery Indicator appears on the display screen remove
all the batteries. Replace with four new batteries at the same time. Long
life alkaline batteries are recommended.

SETTING THE DATE AND TIME
Set the monitor to the current date and time before taking a measurement
for the first time. If the correct date and time are not set, the measurement
values stored in the memeory and the value will not be correct.
The Blood Pressure Monitor automatically stores up to 30
measurement values. The monitor also calculates an average reading
based on the three most recent measurements taken within 10 minutes
of the last reading.
NOTE:
• If only two readings are stored in the memory for the 10-minute
period, the average is based on the two readings.
• If one reading is stored in the memory for the 10-minute period,
this reading is displayed as the average.

APPLYING THE ARM CUFF
1. Connect the air tube of the arm cuff and the inflation bulb to
their air jacks.
2. Remove tight-fitting clothing from your upper arm.
3. Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Place your arm on a
table so the cuff is level with your heart.

APPLYING THE ARM CUFF
4. Apply the cuff to your left upper arm so the blue arrow is centered
on the inside of your arm and aligned with your middle finger.
The air tube runs down the inside of your arm. The bottom of the
cuff should be approximately 1/2" above your elbow.
1/2 inch (1 - 2 cm)
Marker
Air Tube
5. Wrap the cuff firmly in place around your arm using the closure strip.
APPLYING THE CUFF ON THE RIGHT ARM
When taking a measurement using the right arm use this instruction
for Step 4.
NOTE: Be careful not to rest your arm on the air tube.
This will restrict the flow of air to the cuff.

TAKING A MEASUREMENT
1. Press the ON/OFF button
All display symbols appear on the screen.
NOTE: When the monitor completes the necessary preparations
before measurement, the Heart Symbol ( ) appears
next to the zero. Wait for the Heart Symbol ( )
before taking a measurement.
2. Begin inflating the cuff by rapidly squeezing the inflation bulb until
you have reached approximately 30-40 mmHg higher than your
normal systolic reading. If your normal systolic blood pressure is
unknown, inflate the cuff to 180 mmHg.
3. When the desired pressure has been achieved, release the
inflation bulb.
NOTE: Do not inflate the arm cuff more than necessary. The current
time continues to be displayed while the cuff is being inflated.

TAKING A MEASUREMENT
4. Inflation stops and the measurement is started.
As the cuff deflates, decreasing
numbers appear on the display. The
Heart Symbol ( ) flashes at
every heartbeat.
NOTE: If the re-inflation symbol
appears, squeeze the inflation
bulb to re-inflate the arm cuff.
5. When the Deflation Symbol ( ) appears on the display, press the
Air Release Button to release the air left in the cuff.

USING THE MEMORY FUNCTION
Every time you complete a measurement the monitor stores the blood
pressure and pulse rate in the memory. The Blood Pressure Monitor
automatically stores up to 30 measurement values. When 30 sets of
measurement values are stored in the memory, the oldest record is
deleted to save the most recent measurement values.
The monitor also calculates an average reading based on the values of
the three most recent measurements taken.
NOTE:
• If only two readings are stored in the memory for the 10-minute
period, the average is based on the two readings.
• If one reading is stored in the memory for the 10-minute period,
this reading is displayed as the average.
If the date and time is not set, the measurement values will not be stored
in the memory correctly.
TO DISPLAY THE AVERAGE VALUE
