6. Battery Indicator and Battery Charge
6.1 Low battery
When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol will flash as soon as the instrument
is switched on. Although the instrument will continue to measure reliably, you should obtain replacement
batteries.
6.2 Flat battery – replacement
When the batteries are flat, the flat battery symbol will flash as soon as the instrument is switched on
(flat battery displayed). You cannot take any further measurements and must replace the
batteries.
1. Open the battery compartment 7 at the bottom of the instrument.
2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the symbols in the compartment.
3. To set date and time, follow the procedure described in «Section 2.».
• The memory retains all values although date and time (and possibly also set alarm times) must be reset
– the year number therefore flashes automatically after the batteries are replaced
6.3 Which batteries and which procedure?
Use 4 new, long-life 1.5V, size AA batteries.
• Do not use batteries beyond their date of expiry. Remove batteries if the instrument is not going to be used
for a prolonged period.
6.4 Using rechargeable batteries
You can also operate this instrument using rechargeable batteries. Only use «NiMH» type reusable batteries.
• The batteries must be removed and recharged if the battery symbol appears. They must not
remain inside the instrument as they may become damaged (total discharge as a result of low use of the
instrument, even when switched off).
• Always remove the rechargeable batteries if you do not intend to use the instrument for a week or more.
• The batteries cannot be charged in the blood pressure monitor. Recharge these batteries in an external
charger and observe the information regarding charging, care and durability.
