• Refer to the test strip package insert for system operating conditions.
• Do not apply blood or control solution to the test strip before you insert it into the meter. If the meter gives
you a result before applying blood or control solution, do not act on that result.
• Do not reuse test strips. Once you have put control solution or blood on a test strip, throw it away. If you
need to retest, use a new test strip.
w WARNINGS:
• Certain substances can interfere with the ACCU‑CHEK Aviva Expert blood sugar system and cause
falsely high results. For example, peritoneal dialysis solutions containing icodextrin (such as Extraneal) or
certain immunoglobulin therapies that contain maltose (such as Octagam 5 %) cause inaccurate results.
For more information, refer to the Test Strip Package Insert or ask your healthcare professional.

car, or garage). Heat and moisture can damage your test strips.
• Do not bend, cut, or alter the test strips.
• Do not get dirt, food, or other material on the test strips.
