change the time and date settings. You can also erase data at any time during normal
monitor operation.
Erasing Data Before Changing the Date and Time
If you attempt to change the date and time, the monitor prompts you to confirm that you
also want to erase all stored patient data.
To erase patient data, press
; the monitor erases the data and enables the date/time
adjustment. (For information on changing the time and date settings, see
Erasing Data During Normal Operation
To erase patient data during normal operation, press and hold
for three seconds. When
the monitor prompts for confirmation, press
to confirm or
to cancel. When the
erasure is complete, the monitor returns automatically to normal operation. If you
cancel the erasure, you can then press any button other than

to return to
normal operation.
