Accu-Chek Performa Owner's Booklet page 5

Important Information About Your New Meter
• Your new meter is designed for testing fresh whole blood samples (for example, blood
from your fingertip or forearm). The meter is for outside the body ( in vitro ) use. It should
not be used to diagnose diabetes.
• This meter requires Accu-Chek Performa Test Strips. Other test strips will give inaccurate
results.
• Your new meter comes with a preset time and date. You may need to change the time to
your time zone.
• If you have followed the steps in the booklet, but still have symptoms that do not seem to
match your test results—or if you have questions—talk to your healthcare professional.
