ARNING AND SAFETY INFORMATION
Infection hazard
All components of the monitor and accessories may come into contact
with human blood and may therefore be sources of infection.
WARNING
•
This monitor must show the blood glucose level in mg/dL. The unit
mg/dL is always shown with the blood glucose level. Contact
Customer Service immediately if your monitor does not display
mg/dL. You will endanger your health if you measure your blood
glucose content in a different unit, interpret the results incorrectly
and take incorrect action.
•
This monitor must be used by one person only. Use of the same
monitor by more than one person may cause infection.
•
The lancing device is suitable for private use. Never use the lancing
device and lancet with other persons (danger of infection).
•
Use a new sterile lancet for every blood sample (single-use only).
Measuring blood pressure
WARNING
•
If circulation on the lower arm is restricted as a result of chronic or
acute vascular disease (including vasoconstriction), the precision of
any wrist measurement is impaired. In this case, use a blood pressure
monitor for the upper arm.
•
The readings that you take may only be used for information
purposes – they are not a substitute for a medical examination!
Discuss your results with the doctor. Never use them to make medical
decisions independently (e.g. regarding medication and dosage).
