Setting the time and date, and coding your meter

Setting the time and date
Your OneTouch® UltraEasy™ Meter comes with the time, date and unit of measure pre-set. Before using your meter for the first time or if
you change the meter battery, you should check and update the time and date. Make sure you complete steps 1 to 7 below to ensure your
desired settings are saved.
 WARNING: If your display shows mmol/L rather than mg/dL, contact your local LifeScan Representative. You
cannot change the unit of measure. Use of the wrong unit of measure may cause you to misinterpret your blood
glucose level, and may lead to incorrect treatment.
