2.4 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, thick clothing and any accessories from your wrist while 
taking a measurement.
1. Apply the wrist cuff to your left wrist.
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.
