This manual and product are not meant as a substitute for advice
provided by your doctor.
You are not to use the information contained herein, or this product
for diagnosing or treating a health problem or prescribing any
medication. If you have or suspect that you have a medical problem,
promptly consult your healthcare provider.
This device uses the oscillometric method to automatically measure
systolic and diastolic blood pressure as well as heart rate.
The measurement position is at human being’s arm.
All values can be read out in one LCD panel.
The device is designed for home use and recommended for use by
adults aged 18 years and older with upper arm circumference ranging
from 9 ~13” (approx. 23 ~ 33 cm).
1. What is blood pressure?
Blood pressure is the measurement of the force of blood pushing
against the walls of the arteries. Arterial blood pressure is
constantly fluctuating during the course of the cardiac cycle. The
highest pressure in the cycle is called the systolic blood pressure,
and represents the pressure in theartery when the heart is beating.
The lowest pressure is the diastolic blood pressure, and represents
the pressure in the artery when the heart is at rest. Both the
systolic and the diastolic pressure are necessary for a physician to
evaluate the status of a patient's blood pressure.
Many factors such as physical activity, anxiety or the time of day,
can influence your blood pressure. Blood pressure is typically low
in the mornings and increases from the afternoon to the evening.
It is on average lower in the summer and higher in the winter.
2. Why is it useful to measure blood pressure
at home?
Having one's blood pressure measured by a doctor in a hospital or
a clinic, is often associated with a phenomenon called “White Coat
Hypertension” where the patient becomes nervous or anxious,
thus raising his blood pressure. There are also numerous other
factors that might cause your blood pressure to be raised at a
specific time of day. This is why medical physicians recommend
home monitoring as it is important to get readings of blood
pressure during different times of the day to really get an idea of
your real blood pressure.
Medical physicians generally recommend the “Rule of 3”, where
you are encouraged to take your blood pressure three times in a
row (at 3 ~ 5 minute interval), three times a day for three days.
After three days you can average all the results and this will give
you an accurate idea of what your blood pressure really is.

A. Standards for assessment of high or low blood pressure
without regard to age, have been established by the WHO,
and classifications adapted from JNC7:
WHO : World Health
Organization
JNC 7: The Seventh Report of
the Joint National Committee
on Prevention, Detection,
Evaluation, and Treatment of
High Blood Pressure. NIH
Publication No.04-5230 August 2004
However the above chart is not exact for classification of blood
pressure and it's intended to be used as a guide in
understanding non-invasive blood pressure measurements.
Please consult with your physician for proper diagnosis.
B. Variations in blood pressure:
Individual blood pressures vary greatly both on a daily and a
seasonal basis. These variations are even more pronounced in
hyper tense patients. Normally the blood pressure rises while at
work and is at its lowest during sleeping period.
(hyper tense: means a person who has high blood
pressure symptom.)
The graph below illustrated the
variations in blood pressure over a
whole day with measurement taken
every five minutes.
The thick line represents sleep. The
rise in blood pressure at 4 PM (A in
the graph) and 12 PM (B in the graph) correspond to an attack
of pain.
HL858DC Automatic Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor measures
blood pressure and heart rate by oscillometric method, meaning the
fluctuations in pressure are measured. Once the cuff is wrapped
around your upper arm, just turn on the monitor and inflation
automatically starts. The inflation of the cuff creates pressure around
the arteries inside upper arm.
Within the cuff is a gauge which senses the fluctuations (oscillations)
in pressure. The fluctuation measured represents the degree of
intensity that your arteries contracting with each heart beat, and also
a result of the pressure that the cuff has placed on the upper arm. The
monitor measures these contractions and converts the information to
a digital value. This is the result displayed on the monitor screen.
Once the measurement is complete, the cuff will automatically
deflate.
HL858DC Automatic Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor has been
clinically tested against a scientific device called sphygmomanometer,
considered the gold standard in blood pressure measurement.
All HL858DC Automatic Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitors have
performed equivalent to measurements taken with this scientific
device and are within the accuracy limits prescribed by the American
National Standard for Electronic or Automated
Sphygmomanometers.
*We suggest our users have their blood pressure monitor
checked every 2 years. This operation should only be
performed by Manufacturer or by authorized representatives.

 Do not take a measurement in a low (less than 41 ℉/5 ℃) and
high (more than 104 ℉/40 ℃) temperature, nor in a place outside
humidity ranges (15 % ~ 93 % R.H.), or you may get inaccurate
readings.
 Wait 30 ~ 45 minutes before measurement if you’ve just
consumed caffeinated beverages or smoked cigarettes.
 Rest at least 5 ~ 10 minutes before taking a measurement.
 To allow your blood vessels to return to the condition prior to
taking the measurement, please wait at least 3 ~ 5 minutes in
between measurements. You may need to adjust the wait time
according to your personal physiological situation.
 We recommend you using the same arm (preferably the left arm)
and measuring around the same time each day.
 Sit down comfortably and place your elbow on the table with your
feet flat on the floor. Please do not cross your legs during
measurements.
 Keep the cuff at heart level. Relax your hand with the palm facing
up.
 Perform measurements in a quiet and relaxed environment at
room temperature.
 Do not move or shake the device during a measurement. Please
keep quiet and do not talk during measurements.
 Proper cuff size is critical for accurate measurements. Follow the
instructions in this manual and printed on the cuff to ensure the
appropriate size of cuff is being used.
 Keep in mind that blood pressure naturally varies from time to
time throughout the day and is affected by lots of different factors
such as stress, eating, smoking, alcohol consumption, medication,
and physical activity, etc.
Normally the blood pressure rises while at work and is at its lowest
during sleeping period.
 Blood pressure measurements should be interpreted by a
physician or a trained health professional who is familiar with your
medical history. Using the unit and recording the results regularly
for your physician to interpret, you will keep your physician
informed of the continuing changes in your blood pressure.
 If you have one of the circulatory problems as arteriosclerosis,
diabetes, liver disease, kidney disease, severe hypertension,
peripheral circulation….., please consult your healthcare
professional before using the device.
 This product is not suitable for people with arrhythmias and
pregnant women.
Blood pressure measurements taken with this device are
equivalent to those obtained by a trained observer using the cuff /
stethoscope auscultation method and are within the accuracy
limits prescribed by the American National Standard for Manual,
electronic, or Automated Sphygmomanometers

beat.
 Our suggestion:
Please do not talk or move during measurements.
Irregular Heartbeat
Detector
This symbol appears for 1 minute when the user was talking,
moving, shaking, or an irregular heart beat was detected
during measurements.
 Our suggestion:
Please do not talk or move during measurements.
Repeat the measurement after resting for at least 5 minutes,
and restart your measurement while sitting down comfortably
and quietly.
Bluetooth Symbol

Risk Category Indicator
Bar
The arrowhead points out the specific Risk Category that your
measurement reading fits in.
11 12

For adults 18 and older who are not on medicine for high blood
pressure, are not having a short-term serious illness, and do not
have other conditions, such as diabetes and kidney disease. To
determine category of risk when systolic and diastolic readings fall
into two areas, use the higher of the two numbers for
classification. There is an exception to the above definition of high
blood pressure for people with diabetes and chronic kidney
disease. A blood pressure of 130/80 mmHg or higher is considered
high blood pressure for those individuals.
Irregular Heartbeat Detector
The symbol will appear on screen indicating a certain
heartbeat irregularity was detected during measurement.
The heartbeat rhythm that is more than or less than 25% from the
average rhythm is usually defined as an irregular heartbeat rhythm.
Talking, moving, shaking or an irregular pulse during the
measurement can result in the appearance of this symbol.
Usually this is not a cause for concern, however if the symbol
appears often, we recommend you seek medical advice.
And please note that the device does not replace a cardiac
examination, but serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early
stage.
*Note ！
 The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart
pacemarkers. If a certain pulse irregularity is detected during
measurement often, we recommend you seek medical advice
 As a safeguard, we recommend that if you have arrhythmias such as
atrial or ventricular premature beats and atrial fibrillation or any other
special conditions you should check with your physician before using
your device.
 The IHB function is not designed for use by people with arrhythmias nor
for diagnosing or treating an arrhythmic problem. In order to filter the
unstable status of user and avoid affecting the detection of heart rate
from any movement, shaking or talking in the beginning of
measurement, the method of averaging heart beat intervals of subject
device is calculated with the three proper heart beat pulses detected in
the beginning of measurement and that is different from a strict
mathematical averaging of all recorded intervals.
 At least 3 beats with at least 25% difference from the average heart
beat interval will generate the IHB icon on the screen.

a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM
and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed
RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the device is used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the device should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed,
additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the device.
b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
