How to Disinfect
• Make sure the meter is off.
• Gently wipe the meter’s surface.
• Cotton buds, wipes and cloths lightly moistened with
disinfectant are all suitable for disinfecting the meter.
• Allow areas you have wiped time to dry thoroughly.
• Remove any fluff or lint that may remain.
• Refer to the section “Cleaning the Meter” for further
information.
Notes:
Make sure that no liquid enters the meter.
Do not spray anything onto the meter and do not
immerse it in liquid. Doing so may damage the
meter’s internal components and stop it from
working properly.
When to Disinfect
Each time after you have tested a patient’s blood
glucose, wipe the area around the test strip slot. If you
find blood on the cloth, wipe also the test strip slot
itself and the measuring window.
If there is blood on the meter, wipe the meter.
