• RX-I Blood pressure measurements are not possible in cases of severe

arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries).

• The pulse display is not suitable for measuring the frequency of cardiac

pacemakers.

• Please be sure to wrap the cuff around your wrist before starting to mea-

sure. Furthermore, do not inflate the cuff without wrapping it round your
wrist.

• Do not use a portable phone near this unit. This unit may operate erroneous-

ly.

• If you suffer from disorders of heart rhythm (arrhythmia), you should consult

your doctor before using this blood pressure monitor. In certain cases the
oscillometric measuring method may produce incorrect readings or no rea-
dings at all.

• Pregnant women should only measure their own blood pressure in consul-

tation with their doctor, since the readings may be changed by pregnancy.

In some rare cases there are people where this measuring method does  
not work due to physical structure. In such cases OMRON recommends you
to consult a doctor.

Open the battery compartment on the
left-hand side of the monitor by pushing 
the cover outwards, applying gentle
pressure.

When inserting the batteries, make sure 
that the +/- poles agree with the symbols 
in the battery compartment. Use two 
identical 1.5 V batteries (type LR03 
alkaline).

If you do not intend to use the monitor 
for a prolonged period, you should 
remove the batteries.
Holding the           button down may 
shorten battery life. To avoid pressure on the button when transporting or
storing, use the case provided. If the (        ) symbol appears, or if the dis-
play remains blank when you switch the monitor on, please change both
batteries. Only use new, high-quality alkaline batteries.
