Frequently Asked Questions

1. Are wrist blood pressure monitors as accurate as upper arm monitors?
   Yes, when used correctly. Because blood vessels in the wrist are narrower and closer to the skin surface, positioning the wrist at exact heart level is critical for matching upper arm measurement accuracy.

2. Which arm should I use to measure blood pressure on the RS3?
   It is generally recommended to measure on your left wrist, as clinical validation protocols typically test left-wrist positioning. If using the right wrist, ensure the monitor is placed on the inside of the wrist.

3. What battery type does the OMRON RS3 require?
   It operates on 2 AAA alkaline batteries (included), which provide approximately 300 measurements depending on usage frequency.

4. Can I share this device with another family member?
   Yes, but the internal memory holds up to 60 readings for 1 primary user history. Additional users can still take readings, but their results will mix with stored data unless manually recorded in a logbook.
