Battery
The Prodigy Pocket® meter comes with one (1)
CR2032 lithium battery. Batteries are manufactured
in a charged state and not designed for recharging.
Recharging the battery can cause battery leakage,
or in some cases, high pressure rupture.
Warning: Batteries can explode or leak
and cause burns if installed backwards,
disassembled, charged or exposed to water,
re or high temperatures.
Low Battery
The meter will alert you when the power is getting
low by displaying two (2) different messages:
1. When the “ ” symbol appears alone on
the display, the meter is functional and the
results remain accurate, but you should
change the battery as soon as possible.
2. When the “ ” symbol appears together
with the “E-b” symbol on the display, the
battery does not have enough power for
a test. You must change the battery before
using the meter.
