The CareSens PRO meter uses two 3.0 V lithium batteries. Before
using the meter, check the battery compartment and insert
batteries if empty.
When the
symbol appears on the display while the meter
is in use, the batteries should be replaced as soon as possible.
The test results may not be saved if the batteries run out.
