When the battery symbol
appears in the display
for the first time, the battery is almost empty. You can
perform approximately 50 more tests with the bat-
tery. We recommend that you replace the battery as
soon as possible. By then it will have lost a lot of
power and changeable conditions (e.g. a cold envi-
ronment) can affect its performance even further.
You need 1 battery of the type CR 2032.
With a new battery you can perform approx. 1000
tests or test for approx. one year.
When you change the battery, your results always
remain saved. Time and date only remain saved as
long as
you change the battery within one minute,
you do not press any button while the battery is
removed,
you do not insert a test strip in the test strip guide
without the battery inserted,
you insert the battery the right way up, i.e. with the
+
symbol facing upwards.
If any of the four conditions stated above is not met,
you will need to re-enter the time and date. For
information on how to re-enter the time and date see
Chapter 3.
