The batteries need to be installed prior to using the instrument. The
Tono-Pen VET is supplied with four OCU-CEL 3.0 volt lithium manganese

teries.
Note: It is recommended that Reichert OCU-CEL Batteries be used
when the batteries need replacement.

RECTLY. INCORRECT INSTALLATION COULD CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE TO
