A code chip is used to give the meter information
about the properties of the test strips. This is why
each pack of test strips contains a code chip.
Each time you open a new pack of test strips,
you must replace the old code chip from the
meter with the new one from the pack. Code
chips from other packs may contain informa-
tion that is incorrect for your new test strips,
and can therefore lead to incorrect test results.
Incorrect results can cause the wrong therapy
recommendation to be made and so lead to
serious adverse health effects.
