3.Using the Unit

Note: You can take a measurement on either your left or right

arm. 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.

Incorrect Posture

These situations could lead to higher blood pressure

values due to strain or the arm cuff being lower than the

heart.

If the arm cuff is at a lower position than your heart use

cushions etc., to adjust the height of your arm.

• Arched back (leaning forwards)

• Sitting cross-legged

• Sitting on a sofa or at a low table

so that you tend to lean forward
