Blood Glucose Test Strips - Medisana GlucoDock Instruction Manual

2 Safety Information
2.3 Instructions for using the GlucoDock

blood glucose test strips

• Only use GlucoDock test strips together with the
GlucoDock blood glucose measuring module.
• Store the test strips in their original container.
• To avoid contamination, only touch the test strips
with clean, dry hands. When removing the strips from
the container and inserting them in the monitor, only
touch them using the grip (holder).
• Close the container again immediately once you have
removed the test strip. This keeps the test strips dry
and free of dust.
• Use the test strip within three minutes of remo-
ving it from the container.
• The test strip is intended to be used only once. Do not
use it again.
• Write the opening date on the label of the container
when you open it for the first time. Observe the
expiry date. The test strips can be used for approx.
three months after opening the container or until the
expiry date, whichever comes first.
• Do not use test strips which have already exceeded
the expiry date, as this can distort the test result. The
expiry date is printed on the container.
• Store the test strips in a cool, dry place but not in the
refrigerator.
• Store the test strips between 2 °C and 30 °C (35.6 °F -
86 °F). Do not freeze the test strips.
• Protect the strips from damp and direct sunlight.
