FC-55
Electronic pill box with alarm..
Introduction:
The Fysic FC-55 pill box allows you to store med-
icine for 5 daily moments. You can program up to
5 times at which the alarm must sound while the
display indicates which medicine must be taken.
This schedule is repeated daily until you program
different times.
The FC-55 pill compartments are only suitable for
dry medicine (pills, capsules, etc.), not for liquid or
ointments.
Power supply:
The FC-55 is powered by 2 batteries: One CR2025
lithium button cell for the clock and timer function.
This battery is already installed by the factory, but
can only be used after removing the insulating
strip.
The other is a 1.5V battery (size AAA) for the
sound and vibration alarm and for the display
lighting. This battery is not included. Please use an
alkaline battery for this, not a rechargeable one.
