INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing the Omron HEM-757 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.
BATTERY 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. 3. Replace the battery cover. 4. If the Low Battery Indicator ( ) appears on the display, replace all four batteries. Long-life alkaline batteries are recommended. Low Battery Indication 5.
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.
HOW TO APPLY THE ARM CUFF 1. Insert the air plug of the arm cuff into the air jack of the monitor. 2. 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. The smooth cloth should be on the inside of the cuff loop. Pile Side Material Sewn Hook Material 3.
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. (Left arm) 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 ( ) starts to flash. Initial LCD Test 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 IntelliSense™ 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. Display of measurement process A mark indicates the measurement process. During the inflation, a mark turns on.
HOW TO TAKE A READING Special instructions regarding the inflation of the IntelliSense™ Monitor: 1. In rare circumstances the user’s physiological characteristics may require a higher level of inflation. These circumstances may include weak pulse or an unusually high systolic blood pressure. When this occurs, the monitor may reinflate to a value of about 30 mmHg higher than the previous inflation value. Reinflation occurs only once. 2.
HOW TO USE THE MEMORY FUNCTION How to Use the Memory Function This monitor has the function to store fourteen measurement values. Push the Button while a ( ) mark is displayed. • Maximum of fourteen stored measurement values can be called out. • For the fifteenth measurements and after, the values from the oldest measurement will be deleted.
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) which can be purchased from: Omron Healthcare, Inc. 300 Lakeview Parkway Vernon Hills, IL 60061 Toll Free Phone #: 1-800-634-4350 Plug 2.
