Warnings and Precautions
◆ Read all the instructions, including the
test strip package insert, and practice the
test with control solution (see Checking
the System) before testing your blood
glucose. Do all quality control checks as
directed, including checking the meter
display symbols (see Description of
System), and consult your Healthcare
Professional before using this product.
◆ The system may contain small parts such
as lancets, bottle caps, etc. Keep your
system out of the reach of small children
because these parts may be dangerous if
swallowed. The test strip packaging con-
tains a drying agent that may be harmful
if inhaled or swallowed. It may also
cause skin or eye irritation.
◆ Do not use the test strips after the expi-
ration date printed on the bottle label or
more than 4 months after first opening
the bottle, whichever comes first. You
may get inaccurate results if you use the
test strips after these dates.
◆ Do not use strips that are bent, cut, or
altered in any way.
◆ Do not use the control solution after the
expiration date printed on the bottle label
or more than 3 months after first opening
the bottle, whichever comes first. Control
solution results may not be reliable if you
use the solution after these dates.
◆ Testing at a very high or very low temper-
ature or relative humidity may affect
results particularly if both the tempera-
ture and humidity are either high or low.
