Initial steps before testing
2.1 Checking the contents
Check that your monitoring kit is complete. The package contents are
listed on the box.
If anything is missing, please contact the Accu-Chek Customer Careline
free on 0800 701000 (UK) or 1800 709600 (Ireland).
2.2 Checking the blood glucose unit
Blood glucose results can be displayed in two different units (mmol/L
or mg/dL). Consequently, Roche sells two different versions of the same
meter. Check that your meter displays the unit you are accustomed
to. The type plate on the back of your meter indicates which unit your
meter uses. If you do not know which is the right unit for you, ask your
doctor.
The unit that your meter displays cannot be changed. If the
wrong unit is printed on the type plate, please consult your dealer
or pharmacy. Using the wrong unit can cause you to misinterpret
the test results.
2.3 Inserting or replacing batteries
If the meter is on, press the Test button to turn it off.
Press lightly on the battery compartment cover and slide it in the
direction of the arrow.
Lift off the cover.
