SD CodeFree™ BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITORING SYSTEM
3. Maintenance, Testing and
Transportation
The meter needs little or no maintenance
with normal use. It automatically tests its own
systems every time you turn it on and lets
you know if something is wrong. If you drop
the meter or think it is not giving accurate
results, make sure that your test strips haven't
expired, then run a "check strip" test. If you are
still getting unexpected results carry out the
"Control solution" check to ensure the meter
is working correctly -see Chapter 2, Control
Solution Test.
