Important Control Solution Information


Use only ActiveCare control solutions with your meter.

Do not use the control solution beyond the expiration date or 3 months after
first opening. Write the opening date on the control solution vial and discard
the remaining solution after 3 months.

It is recommended that the control solution test be done at room temperature
20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F). Make sure your control solution, meter, and test
strips are at this specified temperature range before testing.

Shake the vial before use, discard the first drop of control solution, and wipe
off the dispenser tip to ensure a pure sample and an accurate result.

Store the control solution tightly closed at temperatures between 2°C to 30°C
(35.6°F to 86°F). Do NOT freeze.
NOTE:

Do NOT clean and disinfect the meter while performing tests.

If the meter is being operated by a second person, the meter and lancing
device should be decontaminated prior to use by the second person.

Do NOT allow cleaning and disinfecting solution to get in the test slot, battery
compartment, or strip-ejection button.

If you do get moisture in the test strip slot, wipe it away with a corner of
tissue.

Always dry the meter thoroughly before using it.

Do not spray the meter directly with cleaning solutions especially those
containing water (i.e. soapy water), as this could cause the solution to enter
the case inside and damage the electronic components or circuitry.
