➌Fitting the cuff

Wrap the cuff around your bare left arm so that the green colored band (indicating the centre of the blad- der) is positioned 1 – 2 cm above your elbow joint on the inside of your arm (see picture).

Important! If you push up your sleeve, ensure it does not constrict the blood flow in your arm.

Close the cuff with the fabric fastener. The green area of the cuff must cover the brachial artery.

The standard-sized cuff is designed for an arm circumference of 22 – 32 cm. To ensure accurate readings on arms with a circumference greater than 32 cm a large cuff will be required.

(large cuff code: CL)

Lay your arm on a table or support (e.g. a cushion) with the palm of your hand facing upwards so that the cuff is approximately at heart level. In this way you ensure that the blood pressure measurement ob- tained is neither artificially high (measurement below heart level) nor low (measurement above heart level).

➍Inflating the cuff

The OMRON M4-I is a blood pressure monitor with an intelligent system to detect your personal blood pressure.

Using the intelligence of the “Fuzzy Logic” this device determines automatically the correct level of inflation pressure. Just push the START button ( ).

The cuff must only be inflated when fitted to your arm!

➎The measurement starts

When the target inflation value is reached, the air is auto- matically released. The value in the display counts down- wards.

As soon as the monitor detects your pulse the ( ) sym- bol begins to flash.

When the monitor no longer detects your pulse whilst the cuff pressure is dropping, your systolic and diastolic blood pressures (upper and lower values) will be displayed.

The deflation symbol ( ) will now flash to indicate the end of the measurement.

When all the air has been released the ( ) symbol appears on the display and your blood pressure and pulse will be displayed on the screen for 5 minutes.

In some rare cases there are people where this measuring method does not work due to physical structure. In such cases OMRON recommends you to consult a doctor.

➏Successive readings

Please leave an interval of at least 2 – 3 minutes should be made in between two successive readings, otherwise the blood flow of the arm could be constricted, which would distort the results of the reading.

Switch off the device by pressing the ON/OFF ( ) button. The device switches off automatically after approximately 5 minutes.

In order to obtain meaningful readings, you should mea- sure your blood pressure regularly at the same time of day, ideally every morning and evening.

➐How to use the memory function

This monitor has a memory capable of storing fourteen sets of readings. Every time you complete the measurement, the monitor automatically stores blood pressure and pulse rate values.

Push the ( ) button to recall stored readings while the Heart Symbol ( ) is displayed.

Once the memory holds fourteen sets of readings, the oldest set will be deleted to store a new set.

To delete stored readings, press the ( )button and the Start Button together, then all the readings will be deleted.

NOTE: You can not delete stored readings partially.
