Meter Maintenance
Battery
Your FreeStyle Freedom® Lite meter comes with one preinstalled,
#2032, 3 volt, lithium battery. The battery provides enough power for
the meter to perform about 1000 tests. If your battery runs low, the
battery symbol ( ) appears on every display screen until you change
the battery.
Important: When this symbol appears, you should replace the battery
immediately.
• To avoid losing the time and date settings, replace the battery
within one minute of removing the old battery.
• If you take more than one minute to replace the battery, you may
need to reset the time and date to get the correct 7-, 14- and 30-day
averages. If the time and date settings are lost, the time and date
displays flash 12:00 and 00-00 until they are reset.
• Removing the battery does not affect the meter's memory log or
previously-stored user settings (such as date and time formats).
• If the time and date settings are not reset, test results will be stored
in memory with a time of 12:00 and a date of 00-00.
• Even if you lose your time and date settings – you can perform a
blood glucose test, and results will not be affected.
