MAINTENANCE
Changing the Batteries
CAUTION: The OneTouch
®
SureStep
®
Meter uses two AAA alkaline batteries.
Do not use rechargeable batteries.
1. When this symbol
appears constant on the
display, the batteries
are low and need to be
replaced as soon as
possible with new AAA
alkaline batteries. If this symbol starts
flashing, battery power is insufficient
to run the meter. You will not be able
to test.
Note: Low batteries and battery removal
will not affect test results stored in meter
memory. However, the current time and
date will be lost and must be reset each
time you change the battery. See Changing
Meter Settings for information on
setting the current date and time.
2. Turn off the meter and remove the
battery door by squeezing the tab and
lifting it up.
