the unit of measurement. If the
meter shows the wrong unit, contact
Roche. If you do not know which
unit of measurement is correct for
you, contact your healthcare
professional. Using the wrong unit of
measurement may cause
misinterpretation of your actual
blood glucose level and may lead to
improper therapy.

WARNING
• If you drop the meter or drop the
meter with a test strip inserted,
the meter and/or test strip could
be damaged. Discard the test strip
and perform a control test with
control solution and a new,
unused test strip to ensure the
meter and test strips are both
working properly. Then repeat the
blood glucose test with a new test
strip.
• Do not store test strips in high
heat and moisture areas
(bathroom or kitchen)! Heat and
moisture can damage test strips.
• 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.
• Close the test strip container tightly
immediately after removing a test strip
to protect the test strips from humidity.
• Store the unused test strips in their
original test strip container with the cap
closed.
• Check the use by date on the test strip
container. Do not use the test strips after
that date.
• Store the test strip container and meter
in a cool, dry place such as a bedroom.
• Refer to the test strip package insert for
test strip storage and system operating
conditions.
