• Do not press the test strip against your finger
when testing. This may block the sample tip.
• Let the meter and test strips adjust to the
temperature where you are testing. Whenever the
meter is moved from one location to another, allow
approximately 20 minutes for the meter to adjust to
the temperature of a new location before performing
a blood glucose test. The meter has been designed
to give accurate results at temperatures between
5°C and 45°C.
• Check the expiry dates on your test strips and
control solution. It is important to not use the test
strips or control solution if the expiry date printed on
the bottle label and carton has passed. The control
solution should not be used if it has been six months
since you first opened the bottle. It will help to
write the six month discard date on the control
solution label.

• Examine product for missing, damaged, or broken
parts. If the test strip bottle is open inside a new
box of strips, do not use those strips. Contact
Bayer Diabetes Care Helpline at 1-800-268-7200 for
replacement parts.
®
• The M 2 lancing device is intended for self
ICROLET
testing by a single patient. It must not be used on
more than one person due to the risk of infection.
®
• Use a new M lancet each time you test
ICROLET
because it is no longer sterile after use.
• Do not perform a blood glucose test when the
®
C N EZ meter is connected to an external
ONTOUR EXT
device, e.g., computer.
• Use only approved equipment from the manufacturer
or certified body such as UL or TUV.
