Disinfecting the meter
NOTE: The meter should be cleaned prior to each
disinfection step.
Remember to keep the meter on a level surface prior to
disinfecting and powered off.
Be certain that solutions contain acceptable active
ingredients for disinfecting the system. When using
commercially available pre-moistened disinfecting cloths,
squeeze off excess disinfecting solution
or blot on a
dry paper towel to remove any excess disinfecting
solu tion before disinfecting the surface of the meter.
1
Use a fresh Clorox Germicidal Wipe or Super
Sani-Cloth Germicidal Disposable Wipe to disinfect
by gently wiping the outside of the meter three
times horizontally and three times vertically and
carefully wipe around the test strip port area,
making sure that no liquid enters the test strip port.
2
Allow the surface of the meter to remain damp with
the recommended disinfecting solution. The
recommended contact times are as follows: Clorox
Germicidal Wipes, a 1-minute contact time, and
Super Sani-Cloth Germicidal Disposable Wipe, a
2-minute contact time.
NOTE: Meter surface should stay moist for the
entire contact time.
3
Dry
the meter thoroughly with a dry cloth or gauze.
Visually verify that no solution is seen anywhere on
the meter at the completion of cleaning and
disinfecting.
Ensure that the meter is thoroughly
dried after cleaning and disinfecting
(see safety
message “Avoid getting liquid into the test strip
port!” and NOTICE in this section).
