MAINTENANCE
General Care
Keep your meter dry and avoid exposing
it to extremes in temperature. Do not
store your meter or test strips in your car
or in the refrigerator or freezer.
Dropping the meter can damage the
electronics. If you drop your meter, do a
control solution test (see Checking the
System) and a display segment check
(see Display Symbols) before using the
meter to test your blood.
Do not take the meter apart. Sensitive
parts could be damaged causing inaccu-
rate results. Taking the meter apart will
also void your warranty.
Cleaning the Meter
CAUTION:
Use water to clean the meter.
Do not get water inside the meter case.
Never immerse the meter or hold it
under running water.
Do not use alcohol, glass cleaners, or
any other cleansers to clean the test
strip holder or lens area.
NOTE: For Healthcare Professionals or
caregivers who assist multiple users, to
disinfect the meter, cleanse the meter as
described below using a 10% bleach solu-
tion (9 parts water, 1 part bleach) and
then clean again with water to remove
any remaining bleach. Thoroughly dry
the meter. Failure to remove the excess
bleach may result in an error message
(, )
or an inaccurately high result.
