Maintenance and Testing
Your meter needs little to no maintenance with normal use. It automatically
tests its own systems every time you turn it on and lets you know if
something is wrong. (See "Screen Messages" and what to do about them.)
To make sure the display is working properly, turn off the meter. Press and
hold (power button) to see the complete display. All the indicators
should be clear and look exactly like the picture to the left. If not, please
contact your healthcare professional.
Cleaning Your Lancing Device
To clean the lancing device, wipe it with a soft cloth dampened with water and mild detergent.
DO NOT
place the entire device under water.
To disinfect the cap after cleaning, place it in 70%-75% rubbing alcohol for 10 minutes at least once a
week. Allow the cap to air-dry after disinfecting.
