INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing the Omron HEM-739 IntelliSenseTM Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor. Although your blood pressure fluctuates throughout the day, no self-adjustment is necessary as the monitor intelligently adjusts to your changing conditions.The IntelliSenseTM monitor uses fuzzy logic intelligence to sense both your systolic and diastolic blood pressure values, and the result is personalized inflation with every reading.

QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE 1. Avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement. 2. Put your left arm through the cuff loop making sure that the bottom edge of the cuff is approximately one-half inch above the elbow. 3. Pull the end of the cuff so that the entire cuff is evenly tightened around your arm and press the sewn hook material firmly against the pile side of the cuff.Make sure that your skin will not be pinched in the D-ring once you inflate the cuff bladder.
A FEW WORDS ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE Blood pressure is the force exerted on the walls of your blood vessels as blood flows through them. Your heart is like a pump.When it contracts, or beats, it sends a surge of blood through the blood vessels and pressure increases.This is called your systolic pressure. Heart Contracts (Pressure Increases) When your heart relaxes between beats, your blood pressure decreases.This is called your diastolic pressure.
A FEW WORDS ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE These two numbers provide important information about your health.The more difficult it is for your blood to flow through your lood vessels, the higher both numbers will be.When blood pressure is consistently above normal it is called hypertension (high blood pressure).
A FEW WORDS ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE Your blood pressure changes constantly.Blood pressure fluctuates from day to day and minute to minute according to your body’s needs.For example, when you are exercising or angry your blood pressure increases, but when you are relaxing or sleeping your lood pressure decreases.These fluctuations are completely normal.Your Omron HEM-739 Monitor is especially helpful when tracking changes in blood pressure because it travels anywhere and takes just seconds to use.
A FEW WORDS ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE The World Health Organization (WHO) developed the following Blood Pressure Classification.This classification, however, is only a general guideline because blood pressure varies from person to person according to age, weight, and health status. CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN TO DETERMINE YOUR NORMAL BLOOD PRESSURE.
BA TTERY INSTALLATION/REPLACEMENT 1. Slide the battery cover off in the direction of the arrow. 2. Install or replace 4 “AA”size batteries so + (positive) and – (negative) polarities match the polarities of the battery compartment as indicated. O PEN 1 3 2 3. Replace the battery cover. O PE 4. If the Low Battery Indicator ( ) appears on the display, replace all four batteries. Long-life alkaline batteries are recommended. N SYSTOLIC mmHg DIASTOLIC mmHg PULSE m/n Low Battery Indication t5.

HOW TO USE THE OPTIONAL AC ADAPTER (ACCESSORY ITEM SOLD SEPARATELY) 1. When using AC power, use only the exclusive AC adapter (Model HEM-ADPT1 or 707-ADPT) which can be purchased from: Omron Healthcare, Inc. 300 Lakeview Parkway Vernon Hills,IL 60061 Toll Free Phone #:1-800-634-4350 2. Insert the AC adapter cord into the jack on the side of the monitor. 3. Insert the AC adapter plug into a 120V AC outlet (50 - 60 cycles). 4.
A FEW SUGGESTIONS BEFORE BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT 1. Avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement.Also rest for at least 5 minutes before taking a reading. 2. Stress raises blood pressure.Avoid taking measurements during stressful times. 3. Remove tight-fitting clothing from your left upper arm. 4. Measurement should be taken in a quiet place and you should be in a relaxed, seated position.
PREPARING TO USE THE UNIT 1. Open cuff compartment and remove the cuff.

The cuff should be assembled correctly when it is removed from the box.If it is not, pass the end of the cuff furthest from the tubing through the metal D-ring to form a loop.
HOW TO APPLY THE ARM CUFF 6. When the cuff is positioned correctly, press the sewn hook material FIRMLY against the pile side of the cuff. 7. The cuff should be wrapped so that it fits snugly and stays in place.You should be able to fit one finger between the cuff and your arm. 8. Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor and rest your arm on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart. 9. Relax your arm and turn your palm upward. 10.
HOW TO TAKE A READING Please read “A Few Suggestions Before Blood Pressure Measurement”and “How To Apply The Arm Cuff”before taking a reading. 1. Press the ON/OFF Button. a) All display symbols appear for approximately one second.This is the initial LCD test. b) The display symbols disappear and the Deflation Indication Symbol ( ) start to flash. c) When the monitor completes the necessary preparations before measurement, the Heart Symbol ( appears next to a zero.
HOW TO TAKE A READING 3. The IntelliSenseTM Progress Indicator ( ) will flash on the display showing that the monitor’s fuzzy logic intelligence is determining your personal measurements. NOTE:Because blood pressure is being measured even during deflation, it is important to remain still until the reading is fully completed. 4. When the measurement is complete, a Heart Symbol ( ) flashes and the arm cuff deflates. 5. At the end of the measurement, our blood pressure and pulse are alternately displayed.
HOW TO TAKE A READING Special instructions regarding the inflation of the IntelliSenseTM Monitor: 1. In rare circumstances the user’s physiological characteristics may require a higher level of inflation. These circumstances may include eak pulse or an unusually high systolic blood pressure.When this occurs, the monitor may reinflate to a value of about 30 mm Hg higher than the previous inflation value. Reinflation occurs only once. 2.
ERROR INDICATORS Error Indicator Cause Cuff under-inflated. Movement during measurement. Correction Wait 10 minutes before taking another measurement. Repeat steps listed under “How to Take a Reading.”If “EE” is displayed again, take another measurement by pressing and holding the START button as listed in step 2a under “How to Take a Reading.” Cuff over-inflated (more than 300 mm Hg). Carefully read and repeat steps listed under “How to Take a Reading.
