Battery Life; Replacing The Batteries - Abbott Precision XceedPro Operator's Manual

Replacing the Port Protector
The port protector is designed to minimize the possibility of liquid entering the monitor through the strip port. Should
blood or control solution come in contact with the port protector, the monitor should be cleaned and the port protector
replaced with a new, dry port protector. After cleaning the monitor, dry the area around the port protector thoroughly.
1. Lift the port protector from its left or right edge.
2. Pull gently away until the protector separates from the monitor.
3. Rest the flat bottom of the new port protector on the ledge of the test strip port.
4. Gently push both sides of the port protector until you hear the tabs snap into place. There should be no gap between
the port protector and the monitor around the edges

Battery Life

The average alkaline battery life is approximately 60 days, based on an average of 9 tests per day and monitor being shut
off within 2 minutes of it not being used (depending on barcode usage). Battery life will vary based upon actual use.
