The approximate amount of battery life is displayed in

power is low. Keep extra batteries on hand.
Display (Figure 1)

Programming keys (Figure 1)
There are 2 keys on the front of the pump right below

them. These are the programming keys. They have
different functions, depending on where you are in a
