Important Information About Your New Meter
• Your new meter is designed and approved for testing fresh capillary whole blood samples (for
example, blood from your fingertip or forearm). The meter is for outside the body (in vitro) use.
It should not be used to diagnose diabetes.
• This meter requires Accu-Chek Aviva Test Strips. Other test strips may give you inaccurate
results.
• Your new meter comes with a pre-set time and date. You may need to adjust the time to your
time zone.
• If you have followed the steps in the User’s Manual, but still have symptoms that do not seem
to match your test results—or if you have questions—talk to your healthcare professional.
