Installing a New Battery
If 9-volt Battery Low or 9-volt Battery Depleted appears in
the display, or if Battery Low appears on the main screen,
you should change the battery.
Use a new 9 volt alkaline or lithium battery such as the
DURACELL
® Alkaline MN 1604, the EVEREADY ® ENERGIZER
Alkaline #522 or the ULTRALIFE ® Lithium U9VL battery.
Dispose of used batteries in an environmentally safe manner,
and according to any regulations which may apply.
WARNINGS:
• Do not use rechargeable NiCad or nickel metal hydride
(NiMH) batteries. Do not use carbon zinc (“heavy duty”)
batteries. They do not provide sufficient power for the
pump to operate properly, which could result in death or
serious injury.
• Always have new batteries available for replacement. If
power is lost, non-delivery of drug will occur and, depend-
ing on the drug being administered, could result in death
or serious injury.
• There is no pump alarm to alert you that the battery has
not been properly installed or has become dislodged. An
improperly installed or dislodged battery could result in
loss of power and non-delivery of drug and, depending on
the drug being administered, could result in death or
serious injury.
• If the pump is dropped or hit, the battery door may
become broken or damaged. DO NOT USE the pump if it
has been damaged because the battery will not be prop-
erly secured; this may result in loss of power, nondelivery
of drug, and, depending on the type of drug being admin-
istered, death or serious injury.
