Important Information About Your New Meter
• Carefully read and follow the instructions in the Owner’s Booklet and package inserts for the test strips and
control solutions. Not following the instructions may lead to a wrong result or improper treatment, causing you
health problems.
• Set the time and date on your meter before you begin testing.
• Your blood glucose meter is designed and can be used for testing fresh capillary whole blood samples (like blood
taken from fingertips) outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use). It should not be used to diagnose diabetes.
• Be sure to use only ACCU-CHEK Comfort Curve test strips or ACCU-CHEK Advantage test strips with the meter.
Other test strips may produce inaccurate results.
• Inspect the container of test strips before using them for the first time. If you see any damage to the container
cap or if anything prevents the cap from closing properly, do not use the test strips. Contact the ACCU-CHEK
Customer Care Service Center. Damaged test strips can cause inaccurate results, which could lead to improper
treatment.
• The meter, test strips and control solutions are only for use outside the body (in vitro). Do not eat the test strips.
Do not swallow or inject control solutions, or use control solutions for any purpose other than testing the
ACCU-CHEK Advantage system.
• Do the control tests explained in this booklet to make sure your system is working properly.
• Carefully dispose of used test strips and lancets.
• It is always a good idea to have a back-up testing method available. Examples of back-up testing methods
include a back-up meter or testing by a lab. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about other possible back-up
methods.
