Baeries:
Baeries (4 x AA Alkaline) are supplied with the dispenser when new.
Baeries will last in normal use for up to 12 months.
Baery life can be checked using the following procedure:
1. Insert baeries in the dispenser.
2. Immediately watch the LCD display for the indicaon BATLEV.
3. At full charge a reading of between 1550 - 1600 (or more) will be shown.
4. At a reading of 1325 the baery warning indicator ‘’LOWBATT’’ will iniate.
5. At a reading of 1275 the unit will not operate, will blink ERROR and sound alarm
sound 04 for 2 seconds, silence for 28 seconds, repeated. This is dierent to the
standard alarm which sounds for 2 seconds repeang every 2 seconds.
NB: 1. Rechargeable baeries should not be used as they have an insucient charge to
reliably operate the unit.
2. When the baery charge is reduced to a reading of 1325 the display will indicate
LOWBAT. In normal operaon the LOWBAT warning will be acve for 1-2 months
depending on how many daily doses are set. This gives early warning that a baery
change is required.
Remember when changing baeries to insert them the correct way around (see gure 3. – p.3).
Removing Baeries: If the baeries are removed and replaced immediately the alarm
sengs are retained; only the clock would need to be reset if the baeries are not replaced
immediately.
Cleaning:

spray and / or wipe with a damp cloth.

Transport: If for any reason the dispenser is despatched by post, courier or other carrier, it is
