1.3 About this manual
This manual will help you get to know your new Accu-Chek Integra
meter step by step. It will provide you with all the information you need
to operate, troubleshoot, and care for your meter. It is important to re-
member that, in order to keep your meter in tip-top condition, you need
to comply with all instructions given in addition to following the correct
operating procedures. The Accu-Chek Integra meter is a precision in-
strument. Improper treatment can impair its function.
Throughout this manual you will see examples of what the display looks
like. Elements that flash are shown surrounded by a halo.
Example:
mmol/L
You have turned on the meter to perform a blood glucose measurement.
The display shows a number of elements, some of which (the blood
drop and the hand symbol) are flashing.
The date, time and blood glucose results shown in the display are in-
tended only as examples. They will not be the same as those shown by
your Accu-Chek Integra meter. The blood glucose meter that is depicted
displays blood glucose results in mmol/L (see Chapter 2.2 “Checking
the blood glucose unit”) and has been set to 24-hour format (see Chap-
ter 3.3 “Changing the time/date format”).
We recommend that you start by familiarizing yourself with all of the
elements of your Accu-Chek Integra meter shown on pages 10 – 13
of these instructions. Practise all of the operations described in these
instructions, and also practise testing. That way you will always have a
dependable partner to accompany you through the day.
