POWERING THE TOUCH BAR
Installing / Replacing Batteries:
1. Locate the battery cover on the top of the touch bar. Remove the battery
cover by pressing inward on the locking tab.
2. Install 2 new AAA batteries. Health o meter® Professional recommends
using an alkaline or lithium battery, rated for 130° F (54° C) operation. Do
not use zinc-carbon batteries.
3. Re-attach the battery cover to the touch bar.
Note: After the batteries are replaced, the measurement unit on the touch bar will always default to
the measurement unit last used.
Low Battery Troubleshooting:
1. If the touch bar does not power on with one button press the batteries may be low. Try double-
clicking the power button to power on the touch bar.
2. A. If "batt" is flashing on the display, it indicates that the battery power is low. To clear the "batt"
message and continue using the touch bar, raise or lower the touch bar past the reference mark
until "batt" stops flashing. Then push the touch bar down the height rod channel to begin
measuring. Replace the batteries as soon as possible.
B. If the touch bar will not power on after double-clicking the power button replace the batteries.
Note: As battery power is depleted the brightness of the digits on the display will gradually diminish.
Warning: If the height rod will not be used for some time, remove the batteries to avoid a
safety hazard. Disposal of batteries must be performed in accordance with the prevailing
national, regional or local regulations that apply to
you.
