Important Information About Your New Meter
• Your new blood glucose meter is designed and approved for testing fresh capillary whole blood samples
(like blood taken from fingertips or forearm) outside the body ( in vitro diagnostic use). It should not be
used to diagnose diabetes.
• Be sure to use only ACCU-CHEK Compact test drums with the meter. Other test strips may produce
inaccurate results.
• Do the control tests explained in this booklet to make sure your system is working properly.
• Carefully dispose of used test strips and lancets.
Health-Related Information
• Being severely dehydrated or losing a lot of water may give you false (low) test results. If you think you're
suffering from dehydration, call your doctor right away.
• If you have followed all the instructions in this booklet and still have symptoms that don't seem to match
your test results – or if you have questions – talk to your doctor.
