Cleaning The Blood Glucose Monitoring System - Accu-Chek Mobile User Manual

Cleaning the blood glucose monitoring system

Cleaning the meter
The mode of operation of the meter with the test cassette means that the meter will not normally come
into contact with blood or control solution. Regular cleaning is therefore not necessary. In the event of the
meter becoming soiled through improper use, cleaning may become necessary.
W
Visually impaired people must be assisted by a sighted person when cleaning the meter.
H
• Use only cold water or 70 % isopropanol for cleaning. Any other cleaning agents may damage the
meter or impair its measuring function.
• Use a slightly dampened cloth or a slightly dampened cotton swab. Do not spray anything directly
onto the meter and do not immerse it in cleaning fluid.
The outside
