Disinfecting Procedures
1.
Put on non-sterile gloves.
Take out one disinfecting wipe from the
package and squeeze out any excess liquid in order to prevent damage
to the meter.
2. Wipe all meter's exterior surface display and buttons. Hold the meter
with the test strip slot pointing down and wipe the area around the test
slot but be careful not to allow excess liquid to get inside. Keep the
meter surface wet with disinfection solution for a minimum of 2
minutes for Micro-Kill+™ wipes. Follow the instructions on the package
label of disinfecting wipe. Use two or more wipes if necessary.
3. Remove the wipe. Allow the meter surface to dry completely.
4. Discard the used wipes and never reuse them. Wash your hands
thoroughly with soap and water after handling the meter, lancing device
and test strips to avoid contamination.
Improper system cleaning and disinfection may result in meter
malfunction. If you have a question, please contact customer service at
