The meter, the cover of the measuring window and
the measuring window itself must be thoroughly
cleaned and disinfected at least once a day after use.
Remember to also clean recesses, grooves and gaps.
Cotton swabs, wipes and cloths lightly moistened
with disinfectant are all suitable for disinfecting the
meter.
Use a mixture of 1-propanol, 2-propanol and glutaral-
dehyde, known in some countries under the brand
Bacillol plus.
Allow areas you have wiped time to dry thoroughly.
Make sure that no liquid enters the meter.
Do not spray anything onto the meter and do
not immerse it in liquid. Internal components
could become damaged and thus impair the
proper functioning of the meter.
