3.1
Applying the Arm Cuff
Note
• The following steps are for applying the arm cuff to your left arm. When you take a measurement on your right arm, follow the cuff wrap
instructions for a right arm use mentioned under “Note” located at the end of this sub-section.
• The blood pressure can differ between the right arm and the left arm, and the measured blood pressure readings can be different. OMRON
recommends to always use the same arm for measurement. If the blood pressure readings between both arms differ substantially, check
with your physician to determine as to which arm to use for your measurements.
1. Plug the arm cuff into your monitor by inserting
the air plug deep into the air jack securely.
Caution
• Remove tight-fitting and thick clothing from your arm while taking a measurement.
