Caring for the Meter
Use a soft cloth or tissue to wipe the meter exterior.
If necessary, a small amount of alcohol on a soft cloth or tissue
may be used. Organic solvents such as benzene, acetone,
household industrial cleaners can cause irreparable damage
to the meter.
It’s important to:
• Not expose the meter to direct sunlight or heat for an extended
period of time.
• Not allow dirt, dust, blood or water near the meter’s test port.
• Not drop the meter.
• Not try to fix or alter the meter in any way.
• Keep the meter away from strong electromagnetic fields such as
cell phones and microwave ovens.
Helpful Tip
Keep all system components in the zippered portable case
to prevent loss.
Do not clean the meter with household or industrial
cleaning solvents, benzene or acetone.
An abnormally high or low red blood cell count(hematocrit
levels over 60% or below 20%) may produce inaccurate results.
A normal red blood cell count is in the 30-50% range. It may be
below or over the normal range in newborns or those suffering
from serious anemia.
Test results below 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) indicate low blood
glucose levels (hypoglycemia). Results above 240 mg/dL (13.3
mmol/L) indicate high blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia).
Severe dehydration (excessive water loss) may cause false low
results. If you believe you are suffering from severe dehydration,
consult your physician immediately.
Reading Variation Factors
Consult your healthcare professional immediately if you
have properly followed all the testing instructions and:
• You consistently receive hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia
results,
• You are suffering from severe dehydration, or
• Your symptoms are not consistent with your blood
glucose test results.
