Batteries
Your OneTouch® FastTake® Meter comes with two
1.5V (#357 or equivalent) silver oxide batteries that are already installed. Each pair of batteries will provide you with enough power to perform about 1,000 tests. When replacing batteries, use only 1.5 V (#357 or equivalent) silver oxide batteries. Do not use alkaline batteries in your OneTouch® FastTake® Meter.
The meter will alert you when the power is getting low by displaying two different messages:
1.The É symbol appears on the display with the unit of measurement when the meter is turned on and all the other display messages are functional. From the time the É symbol first appears, there is enough power left for about 50 tests. The test results will be accurate, but it is time to change the batteries.
2.The É symbol appears on the display by itself. This means that the batteries will not provide enough power for a test. You must change the batteries.
