Run a control solution test every time you open a new box of strips (See Chapter 2 “Control Solution
Testing.”)
After you take a test strip out of the vial, tightly close the vial immediately to keep the test strips dry.
Use the test strip within three minutes after taking it out of the vial.
The strip is for single use only. Do not reuse it.
When you open a new test strip vial, check the expiration date. The test strips are good for six months
from the initial date the vial is opened or until the expiration date, whichever comes first. Record the date
you first open the test strip vial in the designated spot on the vial.
Store the test strip vial and your meter in a cool, dry place, between 36°F - 86°F (2°C- 30°C). Do not
freeze.
Insert the test strip into the meter before applying blood or control solution.
Do not touch the test strip with wet hands. Do not bend, cut, or twist the test strips.
