NOTICE
n
Use only your finger to touch the screen elements.
Using a sharp-edged object (e.g., tip of a pen) can
damage the touchscreen.
n
Do not use the system in direct sunlight. Direct
sunlight may reduce the life expectancy and
functionality of the display, as well as the integrity of
test strips.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
The ACCU-CHEK Inform II system complies with both the
electromagnetic immunity requirements and radio
inter ference immunity requirements at the frequency and
test levels according to EN ISO 15197 Annex A. The
system also complies with the electrostatic discharge
(ESD) immunity requirements as specified in IEC
61000-4-2 and complies with applicable electromagnetic
emissions (EMC) requirements according to EN 61236-1
and EN 61326-2-6. The system’s emissions of the energy
used are low and not likely to cause interference in
nearby electronically driven equip ment.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is an electrical charge at
rest, most commonly known as static electricity. If the
ACCU-CHEK Inform II meter experiences a form of ESD
before or after running a blood glucose test, the test
result will be stored in the meter memory and transmitted
when the meter is docked in a connected base unit or
when a wireless connection is established. If the meter
experiences ESD during a blood glucose test, an error
message is displayed and no blood glucose result is
dis played by the meter or stored in the meter’s memory.
The blood glucose test will need to be repeated.
To avoid ESD, do not use the meter in a very dry
environment, particularly one in which synthetic materials
(e.g., carpets) are present that might cause damaging
static discharges, or near electronic equipment that is a
source of electromagnetic radiation.
