Blood pressure varies constantly. Many factors including stress, time of day, and/or how you apply the
arm cuff, may affect your blood pressure. Review section 2 of instruction manual
Press the [START/STOP] button to turn the monitor off, then press it again to take a measurement. If the
problem continues, remove all batteries and wait for 30 seconds. Then re-install batteries. If the problem
still persists, contact your OMRON retail outlet or distributor.
The Afib indicator function and ECG use completely different technologies. An ECG measures the
electrical activity of the heart and can be used to diagnose Afib. The Afib indicator function detects
irregular heartbeat and can suggest the possibility of Afib with a sensitivity of 95.5 % and specificity of
93.8 %. Refer to section 11 for details.
Even if the " " symbol does not appear, there is still a possibility of Afib.
We recommend you to consult with your physician because there is a possibility of Afib. However, the
" " symbol may be displayed for other reasons, such as other heart arrhythmias.
The irregular heartbeat function detects irregularities in the pulse waves in one measurement. The Afib
indicator function suggests the possibility of Afib when blood pressure is measured 3 consecutive times.
Afib does not always have symptoms. We recommend you to consult with and follow the directions of
your physician.
