Thank you for purchasing the NightView. This blood pressure monitor is to be worn
on your wrist.
This new blood pressure monitor uses the oscillometric method of blood pressure
measurement. When the cuff inflates, this monitor senses the pressure pulsations of
the artery underneath the cuff. The pulses are called oscillometric pulses. The
electronic pressure sensor displays a digital reading of blood pressure.
Safety Instructions
This instruction manual provides you with important information about the NightView.
To ensure the safe and proper use of this monitor, READ and UNDERSTAND all of
these instructions. If you do not understand these instructions or have any
questions, contact your OMRON retail outlet or distributor before attempting
to use this monitor. For specific information about your own blood pressure,
consult with your physician.
Intended Use
The device is a digital monitor intended for use in measuring blood pressure and
pulse rate in adult patient population with wrist circumference ranging from 13.5 cm
to 21.5 cm. The device detects the appearance of irregular heartbeats during
measurement and gives a warning signal with readings. Upon user’s discretion the
“nocturnal measurement” mode can be activated to automatically take 3
measurements during nighttime. The device will obtain the nocturnal blood pressure
regardless whether the user is asleep or awake at the time of the measurements*. It
is mainly designed for general household use.

2.1 Installing Batteries
1. While holding the hook of the battery
cover, slide and remove it.
2. Insert 2 “AAA” alkaline batteries as
indicated in the battery compartment.
3. Close the battery cover.
As soon as batteries are correctly installed, the display flashes
as shown in the figure to the right for 2 minutes, then your
monitor will automatically turn off.
• When the “ ” symbol flashes on the display, it is
recommended you replace batteries.
• To replace batteries, turn your monitor off and remove all batteries. Then replace
with 2 new alkaline batteries at the same time.
• As soon as batteries are correctly installed, the year flashes on the date and time
display to set the date and time.
• Replacing batteries will not delete previous readings.
• The supplied batteries may have a shorter life than new batteries.
• Disposal of used batteries should be carried out in accordance with local
regulations.
2.2 Pairing Your Monitor with a Smart Device
You can track changes in your blood pressure by transferring your readings from
your monitor to your smart device.
The date and time on your monitor will automatically be set when you pair your
monitor with your smart device.
1. Enable Bluetooth on your smart device.
2. Download and install the “OMRON connect” app onto your smart
device.
If you already have the “OMRON connect” app and have created your account,
open the app and add your new monitor.
3. Open the app on your smart device and press and hold
the [Connection] button for more than 2 seconds. Then
follow the instructions.
4. Confirm that your monitor is connected successfully.
When your monitor is connected successfully to your smart device, “OK”
appears after flashing 3 times.
• Be aware that OMRON will not be responsible for the loss of data and/or
information in the app.
• “OMRON connect” is the only app that we recommend to use with your
monitor to transfer data correctly.

2.4 Blood Pressure Measurement Tips
To help ensure an accurate reading, follow these directions:
• Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during stressful times.
• Measurements should be taken in a quiet place.
• It is important to take measurements at same times each day. Taking
measurements in the morning and in the evening is recommended.
• Remember to have 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.
• Avoid bathing, drinking alcohol or caffeine, smoking, exercising and eating for at
least 30 minutes before taking a measurement.
• Rest for at least 5 minutes before taking a measurement.
2.5 Applying the Wrist Cuff
• Following steps are for applying the wrist cuff to your left wrist. When you take a
measurement on your right wrist, apply the wrist cuff using the same steps as on
your left wrist.
• The blood pressure can differ between the right wrist and the left wrist, and the
measured blood pressure values can be different. OMRON recommends to always
use the same wrist for measurement. If the values between both wrists differ
substantially, please check with your physician as to which wrist to use for your
measurements.
• Remove tight-fitting or thick clothing and any accessories from your wrist while
taking a measurement.
1. Roll up sleeve.
Make sure your sleeve is not rolled up too tightly on
your arm. This may constrict the flow of blood in your
arm.
2. Put your wrist through the cuff loop.
Your palm and monitor display should both face
upward.
3. Position the wrist cuff leaving a
clearance of 1 to 1.5 cm between your
monitor and the bottom of your palm.
4. Wrap the wrist cuff firmly around your wrist.
Do not apply over clothing.
Check to make sure that there is no gap between
your wrist and the cuff.
• Make sure the wrist cuff does not cover the
protruding part of the wrist bone on the outside of
your wrist.
• DO NOT use this monitor with other medical electrical (ME) equipment
simultaneously. This may result in incorrect operation of the monitor and/or cause
an inaccurate reading.
• Remain still and DO NOT talk while taking a measurement.
3.1 Taking a Measurement in the Morning and Evening
1. Sit with correct posture.
To take a measurement, you need to be
relaxed and comfortably seated in a room
with a comfortable temperature. Place your
elbow on the table to support your arm.
• Sit in a chair with your legs uncrossed and
your feet flat on the floor.
• Sit with your back and arm being
supported.
• Your monitor must be approximately the
same level as your heart. If the monitor is
too high above your heart, your blood
pressure will be artificially low. If the
monitor is too low below your heart, your
blood pressure will be artificially high.
• The appropriate level can be checked using the positioning indicator after
pressing the [START/STOP] button.
• Relax your wrist and hand. Do not bend your wrist back, clench your fist, or
bend your wrist forward.
2. Press the [START/STOP] button.
All symbols (except for the battery symbol) appear on the
display before starting the measurement.
• To stop the measurement, press the [START/STOP] button
once to deflate the wrist cuff.
3. Check the positioning indicator.
Your monitor has a built-in heart zone function that is used as an aid in
determining if the monitor is at the correct height. It has been designed to work
with most people so that when your wrist is at the correct position relative to
your heart, the indicator will light in blue. When your wrist is higher or lower
position relative to your heart, the indicator lights in orange.
• After 5 seconds from pressing the [START/STOP] button, even if your
monitor is not positioned properly, your monitor will start the measurement
and the wrist cuff will start to inflate.
4. Remain still and do not move or talk until the entire measurement
process is completed.
This monitor detects your blood pressure and pulse rate during inflation.
• The positioning indicator remains on during inflation.
• When the “ ” symbol is displayed, the wrist cuff is not applied correctly.
Press the [START/STOP] button to turn your monitor off, then apply the cuff
correctly.
After your monitor has detected your blood pressure and pulse rate, the cuff
automatically deflates. Your blood pressure and pulse rate are displayed.
5. Press the [START/STOP] button to turn your monitor off.
• Your monitor will automatically turn off after 2 minutes.
• Wait 2 - 3 minutes between measurements. The wait time allows the arteries
to decompress and return to their pre-measurement form. You may need to
increase the wait time depending on your individual physiological
characteristics.
• If the battery symbol flashes, the batteries may be depleted during
measurement. This may cause an inaccurate reading. Replace the batteries
immediately.
Transferring Data Automatically/Manually
• When Bluetooth is enabled, the readings will be transferred to your smart device.
• To transfer the readings manually, open the app, then press the [Connection]
button.
