How to Remove and Attach the Nose Cover
1. The ACCU-CHEK Compact meter with the
nose cover in place.
2. Take off the removable nose cover by
gently squeezing both sides and lifting
it up.
3. The ACCU-CHEK Compact meter with the
nose cover removed. The small measurement
window can now be seen.
4. Put the nose cover back on by snapping
down one side at a time. Make sure
you hear two clicks. The nose cover

the test strip won’t advance properly.

your meter displays the OFF message, see
