Replacing the Batteries

The VetMate meter comes with two 3.0 V lithium batteries.
Before using the meter, check the battery compartment and
insert batteries if empty. When the
display while the meter is in use, the batteries should be replaced
as soon as possible. The test results may not be saved if the
batteries run out.
Step 1
Make sure the meter is turned off. Push
the cover in the direction of the arrow to
open the battery compartment.
Step 2
Remove the used batteries one at a time.
Slip your index finger under the battery to
lift and pull out as shown. Insert two new
batteries with the + side facing up and make
sure the batteries are inserted firmly.
Step 3
Place the cover on the battery
compartment. Push it down until you hear
the tab click into place.
Note: Removing the meter batteries will not affect the stored
results. However, you may need to reset the meter settings.
