3. Using the Unit
6.
When the cuff is positioned correctly,
close the fabric fastener FIRMLY.
Notes:
• Make certain the cuff fits snugly around your arm.
• The cuff should make good contact with your skin. You should
be able to fit your index finger between the cuff and your arm
easily, so you can pull the cuff off and on.
• Make sure that there are no kinks in the air tubing.
Taking measurements on the right arm
Please note the following points when
applying the cuff to your right arm. Apply the
cuff so that the air tube is at the side of your
elbow.
Notes:
• Be careful not to rest your arm on the air
tube, or otherwise restrict the flow of air to
the cuff.
• Apply the arm cuff so that no part of the
cuff is positioned over the elbow joint. The
cuff should be 1 to 2 cm above the elbow.
• If used 2 times per day, the cuff will last for 3 years.
• The blood pressure can differ between the right arm and the left arm,
and therefore also the measured blood pressure values can be
different. Omron recommends to always use the same arm for
measurement. If the values between the two arms differ substantially,
please check with your physician which arm to use for your
measurement.
