Description of Unit & Display
Battery Information
The unit is powered by 1 x 9-volt DC battery. The battery compartment is located on the rear of the
unit. We recommend using an alkaline battery. The MediTens XP has an indicator that shows the
battery status. When the battery is nearing discharge, the battery outline will flash. To insert,
replace or check the battery, follow the instructions provided on page 13.
Connecting Leads
Two sockets are positioned at the base of the unit for the insertion of the leads (Fig. 2). The leads are
connected to the electrodes via moulded pins. The electrodes and leads are removable and can be
replaced if necessary. Each lead is a separate channel, one of which is light blue and the other dark
blue. Two plastic moulded pins are found at the end of each lead.
