Insert L the air plug into F the air jack.

Put your arm through the cuff loop.

Position the arm correctly.

The bottom edge of the cuff should be a 1 to 2 cm above the elbow. J Marker (arrow under tube) is centred on the middle of your inner arm. Close the fabric fastener FIRMLY.

Notes:

When you take a measurement on the right arm, air tube will be at the side of your elbow. Be careful not to rest your arm on the air tube. --- b

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.
