Using the Accu‑Chek Guide System
• The Accu‑Chek Guide test strips are for testing fresh capillary whole blood.
• Use only Accu‑Chek Guide test strips.
• Use the test strip immediately after removing it from the test strip container.
• Do not apply blood or control solution to the test strip before inserting it into the meter. If you applied
blood or control solution before inserting the test strip into the meter, retest with a new test strip. If a
result appears before applying blood or control solution, do not act on that result.
• Close the test strip container tightly immediately after removing a test strip. Moisture can damage the
test strips and produce incorrect results.
• Store the unused test strips in their original container with the cap tightly closed.
• Discard the test strips if they are past the
Use By
date printed on the test strip container. If the
Use By
date is missing or cannot be read, do not use the test strips. Contact the Accu‑Chek Customer Care
Service Center at 1‑800‑858‑8072.
• Refer to the test strip package insert for test strip storage and system operating conditions.
• Do not remove test strips from the test strip container and put them into another container, such as a
plastic bag, pocket, purse, wallet, etc.
• Do not reuse test strips. Once control solution or blood has been applied to a test strip, discard it. If a
retest is necessary, use a new test strip.
• Perform a control test every time you open a new test strip box.
