Thank you for purchasing the OMRON RS1 Wrist Blood Pressure

Monitor.

The OMRON RS1 is a compact and easy to use blood pressure

monitor, operating on the oscillometric principle. It measures your

blood pressure and pulse rate simply and quickly. For comfortable

controlled inflation without the need of pressure pre-setting or

re-inflation the device uses its advanced “IntelliSense” technology.

Intended Use

This product is designed to measure the blood pressure and pulse

rate of people within the range of the designated wrist cuff, following

the instructions in this instruction manual.

It is mainly designed for general household use. Please read the

Important Safety Information in this instruction manual before using

the unit.

Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before using the

unit.

Please keep for future reference.

For specific information about your own blood pressure,

CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.

Consult your doctor prior to using in pregnancy or if diagnosed with

arrhythmia or arteriosclerosis.

Please read this section carefully before using the unit.

Warning:

• Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

could result in death or serious injury.

(General Usage)

• Always consult your doctor. Self-diagnosis of measurement results

and self-treatment are dangerous.

• People with severe blood flow problems, or blood disorders, should

consult a doctor before using the unit, as cuff inflation can cause

internal bleeding.

(Battery Usage)

• If battery fluid should get in your eyes, immediately rinse with

plenty of clean water. Consult a doctor immediately.

Caution:

• Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

may result in minor or moderate injury to the user or patient or

damage to the equipment or other property.

(General Usage)

• Do not leave the unit unattended with infants or persons who

cannot express their consent.

• Do not use the unit for any purpose other than measuring blood

pressure.

• Do not use a mobile phone or other devices that emit

electromagnetic fields, near the unit. This may result in incorrect

operation of the unit.

• Do not disassemble the unit or wrist cuff.

• Do not operate the unit in a moving vehicle (car, airplane).

(Battery Usage)

• If battery fluid should get on your skin or clothing, immediately rinse

with plenty of clean water.

• Use only two “AAA” alkaline (LR03) batteries with this unit.

• Do not insert the batteries with their polarities incorrectly aligned.

• Replace old batteries with new ones immediately. Replace both

batteries at the same time.

• Remove the batteries if the unit will not be used for three months or

more.

• Do not use new and used batteries together.

General Precautions

• Do not apply strong shocks and vibrations to or drop the unit.

• Do not take measurements after bathing, drinking alcohol or

caffeine, smoking, exercising or eating.

• Do not inflate the wrist cuff when it is not wrapped around your

wrist.

• Read and follow the “Important information regarding Electro

Magnetic Compatibility (EMC)” in the Technical Data Section.

• Read and follow the “Correct Disposal of This Product” in the

Technical Data Section when disposing of the device and any used

accessories or optional parts.

Main unit:

Display:

2.1 Installing/Replacing the Batteries

• If the battery low symbol ( ) appears on the display, turn off

the unit then replace both batteries at the same time.

• The measurement values continue to be stored in memory

even after the batteries are replaced.

Disposal of used batteries should be carried out in accordance

with the national regulations for the disposal of batteries.

3.1 Applying the Wrist Cuff

Do not apply over clothing.

3.2 How to Sit Correctly

• Relax your wrist and hand. Do not bend your wrist back, clench

your fist, or bend your wrist forward.

3.3 Taking a Reading

Notes:

• To cancel a measurement, press the START/STOP button at

any time during measurement.

• Remain still while taking a measurement.

Cuff Wrapping Guide

The Cuff Wrapping Guide is a unique feature that

indicates if the cuff is not wrapped tightly enough

around the wrist. Even when the is displayed, a

blood pressure reading will be taken.

Note: This reading is NOT reliable due to the incorrect

wrapping of the cuff. Please wrap the cuff again, taking

care to wrap it correctly and take the measurement

again. When the is displayed, the cuff is correctly

wrapped tightly enough on the wrist and the reading is

accurate and reliable.

The monitor automatically stores the measurement in its

memory.

It will automatically turn off after two minutes.

This criteria is for home blood pressure measurement.

Notes:

• Wait 2 - 3 minutes before taking another blood

pressure measurement. Waiting between readings

allows the arteries to return to the condition prior to

taking the blood pressure measurement.

• 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.

Warning:

Self-diagnosis of measured results and treatment are

dangerous. Please follow the instructions of your doctor.
