Handling test strips
Note
•
Before using the first test strip, ensure that the seal on the container is un-
broken. If the seal is damaged, do not use the test strips.
•
Once you have removed the test strip, tightly close the container again im-
mediately.
•
Do not use test strips if the expiry date has passed. The use of expired test
strips can lead to inaccurate measurements. The expiry date is located on
the container next to the hourglass symbol
.
•
The test strips can be kept for three months once the container is open.
•
Make a note of when this time will run out (date of o 3 months
)
on the label. The shelf life decreases if the expiry date is reached before the
end of the 3 months (see the date next to the hourglass symbol
).
•
Do not use the test strips if either of these dates has expired (
/
).
•
Any part of the test strip may be handled with dry, clean hands.
•
Use the test strips immediately upon removal from the container.
•
Do not bend, cut, or otherwise modify the test strip.
•
Do not use test strips that have come into contact with liquids for the blood
sugar measurement.
