Sleep
The Sleep function allows the meter to be turned off when it is not in use, thus
conserving battery power. IPS recommends that the meter be turned off when stored or
if the meter is bagged for over 48 hours. If the meter is going to be stored for longer than
a month, then please remove the power jumper.
In order to put the meter to sleep, press OK and then press – to confirm. This can also
be accomplished by holding down the diagnostic button until a beep is heard and the
meter shuts off.
