Troubleshooting for Afib indicator function:
What is different between the
Afib indicator function and
ECG?
If the " " symbol does not
appear, it means there is no
possibility of Afib?
Should I consult with my
physician if the " " symbol
appears?
What is different between
Afib indicator function and
irregular heart beat function?
What should I do if the " "
symbol sometimes appears?
I have been diagnosed with
Afib by the physician, but the
" " symbol does not appear.
Is the blood pressure reading
reliable when the " "
symbol appears?

Possible Cause
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.
Afib may not occur at the time of specific blood pressure measurements. We recommend you to consult
with your physician regularly.
Afib or an irregular heartbeat can influence your blood pressure measurements and make it difficult to get
an accurate reading. Repeated measurements may be required to overcome variabilities.* In Afib mode,
the blood pressure measurement is taken 3 times, and the average is displayed. The monitor will indicate
an error message (E5/E6) if the influence of the irregular heartbeat is too severe to give a measurement
result. If this occurs repeatedly, we recommend that you consult with your physician.
