Turning Your Meter On; Turning Your Meter Off - OneTouch UltraEasy User Manual

Turning your meter on

To perform a test, insert a test strip as far as it will go. The display will turn on and
the meter will briefly perform system checks. Or, to change the time and date,
start with the meter off, then press and hold ▼ for five seconds until the start-up
test screen appears. After the start-up test screen, the pre-set time and date will
appear on the display. Or, if you want to turn the meter on to review past results,
start with the meter off, then press and release ▼.
Every time you turn your meter on, a start-up test screen will appear for two seconds. All segments of the display should appear
briefly on the start-up test screen to tell you that the meter is working properly. To check that all display segments are working, as
soon as the start-up test screen appears, press and hold ▲ to keep the start-up test screen display on. Release ▲ to proceed to the
next step. If the meter does not power on, try changing the meter battery. See Replacing the battery in Section 6.

Turning your meter off

There are several ways to turn your meter off:
• Press and hold ▼ for two seconds, when reviewing past results.
• Your meter will turn off by itself if left alone for two minutes.
• Before or after completing a test, remove the test strip.
