Why does the Omnitest® 5 device need five
seconds to take a measurement and require a
larger blood sample than Omnitest® 3?
Why does my Omnitest® 5 calculate e.g. averages
of only 490 measurements, while 500 readings
are stored?
Why does an empty battery symbol appears when
i turn it on even though my device is new?
Wash and dry your hands before use to prevent
damage to the meter and test strips. the meter
should be cleaned with a soft cloth or paper towel
if necessary. Do Not apply pure alcohol directly
to the meter for cleaning. instead, use a tissue
that has been moistened with a small amount of
alcohol. Allow the meter to dry completely after
cleaning in a cool location away from direct
sunlight. the meter and test strips must not be
immersed in water or other fluids.
see also "Cleaning information" available as PdF.
Do Not use chemical solvents such as benzene or acetone because
these may damage the surface of the Omnitest® 5 and damage it.
After testing, store the Omnitest® 5 components in its case in a cool dry
place out of the reach of children.
do not store the meter and test strips near sources of heat, direct
sunlight or in the refrigerator. strong electromagnetic fields (e.g. from
mobile phones or microwave ovens) can interfere with the measurement
function.
the new measurement system with the new test strip enzyme and the
third electrode for underfil detection require a sample volume of 0.5 µL
and a measurement time of 5 seconds.
the apparently missing ten measurements in this example were made
with the control solution and therefore do not appear in the averages.
the battery segment is displayed as part of the
display test when switching on the meter – as well
as all other display segments.
this display is made for safety reasons and does
not reflect the current battery status.
