1. Keep test strips in the original vial and store in a cool dry
place. Do not expose to direct sunlight and heat. Do not refrigerate.
2.
Always check the expiration date of the test strips and do not
use
beyond original date printed on the package as you may get inaccurate
results.
3. Be sure to change the code number on your meter to match
the code number on the box of test strips. Failure to change
the code number will
result in inaccurate results.
4. Do not cut or alter the test strip
in any way.
5. Test strips can only be used once. Never reuse
a test strip that has blood or control solution on it.
6.
Always refer to the manufacturer instruction for your specific
meter.
7. If you obtain your test strips from another country
or obtain supplies that you have questions about or are packaged
differently,
please call
the 1-800 number on the back of your meter and speak with
a customer representative who can check the lot number
for you.
