Setting up your Icare HOME tonometer is easy, with few steps. The following
subchapters describe how you get started.

compartment cover in place. Open the battery compartment cover by pressing
the silicone lid slightly and sliding the battery compartment cover as shown in
the Figure 6.

place to cover the USB port.

10.2 TURNING THE TONOMETER ON

Press the power button (20) to turn the tonometer on. The lights (14-19) are
turned on briefly. Following a brief pause, the Load light flashes on the back
panel to remind the user to load the single-use probe into the tonometer
prior to measurement.

10.3 LOADING THE PROBE

The Icare HOME tonometer uses single-use probes that are packed in a
plastic tube and wrapped in blister packs as shown in the Figures 8 and 9.
To load the probe:
1.
Unwrap the probe (Figure 10).
2.
Remove the lid of the probe container as shown in the Figure 11.
Point the tonometer upward.
3.
Drop the probe into the probe base by turning the probe container
upside down as shown in the Figure 12.
4.
Press the measurement button briefly (1 second) to activate the probe
(Figure 13).
5.
The probe moves rapidly back and forth (Figure 14).
6.
If the green Measure light flashes, the probe is loaded correctly and
ready for measurement (Figure 15).
