Inserting The First Test Cassette - Accu-Chek Mobile User Manual

Inserting the first test cassette

Before using your new meter for the first time, you must insert a test cassette.
Insert the very first test cassette in the meter before you remove the protective strip from the batteries
and start using the meter.

• Read the test cassette package insert. It contains further important information, for example, on
storage and possible causes of incorrect test results.
• If the plastic container or the foil cover of the test cassette is damaged, you must not use the test
cassette. Otherwise, there is a risk that you might obtain incorrect test results. Incorrect test results
can cause the wrong therapy recommendation to be made and thus produce serious adverse health
effects.
• Only open the plastic container when you want to insert the test cassette in the meter. The unopened
plastic container protects the test cassette against damage and moisture.

A table is printed on the test cassette box which shows the permitted results for control tests (checking
the meter with glucose control solution). The meter automatically checks whether the result of a control
test is correct (see page 98). If you want to check the control result yourself as well, you can do this
with this table. Keep the test cassette box in case you need it for this purpose. Note that the table only
applies to test cassettes in this box. For test cassettes from other boxes, other tables apply.
