Insert or Change Battery
A few reminders before you insert or change the battery:
• Make sure your pump is in STOP mode
• Remove or disconnect your infusion set from your body as a safety precaution
• Use a single non-expired 1.5-volt alkaline AA battery in your pump. Consult your
ACCU-CHEK Spirit Insulin Pump User Guide
if you are using a rechargeable battery.
Step 1:
Remove the battery cover from your insulin pump. Use the battery
key to turn the battery cover counter-clockwise, as shown by the
arrow on the battery cover.
Step 2:
Put the battery cover on the positive (+) end of the battery.
Step 3:
Insert the battery (with the negative (–) end fi rst) and the battery
cover into the battery compartment.
Step 4:
Carefully push the battery and cover in and turn the battery cover
clockwise to tighten it. The battery cover is correctly tightened when the
outside of it is even with the casing. Do not over-tighten the battery cover.
If the battery is installed correctly, your pump will automatically perform its start-up procedure.
Always check that the time and date are set correctly on your pump after changing the battery.
