Symbol... Meaning:
When this result was saved, the tem-
perature was at the limit of the permit-
ted range.
Do not use the result as a basis for
therapeutic decisions.
The batteries are running low. When
the battery symbol first appears in the
display, you can perform about 50 more
tests. Continue testing until all the test
strips in the test strip drum have been
used. Then replace the batteries and the
test strip drum.
If you use NiMH rechargeable batter-
ies instead of normal batteries, fewer
than 50 more tests can be performed. If
the rechargeable batteries are old and
exhausted, it may not be possible to per-
form even one more test.
When the batteries are so low that
no more tests can be performed, the
battery symbol appears briefly for 3
seconds in the display. Then the meter
turns off. Insert two batteries (new or
recharged).
