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.
