Caring for Your Meter
► Why the cleaning and disinfection should be performed
Cleaning and disinfection are different. Cleaning is the process of re-
moving dirt (e.g. food debris, grease, dust), disinfection is the process
of killing germs (e.g. bacteria and viruses).
► When to clean and disinfect the meter
All surface of meter if visibly soiled must be physically cleaned to
remove gross soil. Disinfect the meter between each patient to prevent
infection.
► How to clean and disinfect the meter
The meter must be cleaned prior to the disinfection. Use one disin-
fecting wipe to clean exposed surfaces of the meter thoroughly and
remove any visible dirt, blood, or any other body
fl uid with the wipe.
Use a second wipe to disinfect the meter by following the disinfecting
procedure below.
Do NOT use organic solvents to clean the meter.
We recommend for meter cleaning and disinfection you should use the
disinfecting wipes/towelettes from below, which the active ingredients
