Maintaining the Meter
Replacing the Battery
The meter comes with a #2032, 3-volt, lithium battery installed. It provides power
for about 1000 tests.
• When appears on the display, the battery is low.
• When appears, the meter may fail to turn on.
• When you are ready to install a new battery, remove the old battery and
install the new battery within 60 seconds to avoid losing time and date
settings.
• If time and date settings are lost, both time and date will
ash until reset. Reset time and date to get the correct 7-, 14-, and 30-day
averages. If the time and date settings are lost, you may still perform an
accurate blood glucose test.
• Memory log and previously stored user settings, such as date and time
format, are not aected by removing the battery.
IMPORTANT: When appears, replace the battery immediately.
