Applying the Arm Cuff
1. Insert the air plug into the air jack securely.
2. Apply the arm cuff to your left upper arm.
The bottom edge of the arm cuff should be 1/2 inch (1 to 2 cm) above the elbow.
Air tube
is on the inside of your arm and aligned with your middle finger.
NOTES:
• When you take a measurement on the right arm, the air tube needs to be at the side of your elbow. Be
careful not to rest your arm on the air tube. ---
• The blood pressure can differ between the right arm and the left arm, and the readings can be different.
OMRON recommends to always use the same arm for measurements. If the readings between both
arms differ substantially, please check with your physician as to which arm to use for your
measurements.
3. Securely close with the fabric fastener.
The letter identifiers on the cover pages correspond to those in the body of this page.
