11 Measurement and storage conditions
The reliability of your meter and lancing device as well as the accuracy
of your results is influenced by a number of factors. Pay close attention
to the following points.
A meter that has been dropped can produce false results.
11.1 Temperature and humidity
Without the batteries and without the test strip drum the meter
may be stored at between −25 and +70 °C.
With the batteries and without the test strip drum the meter may
be stored at between −10 and +50 °C.
At temperatures above +50 °C the batteries could leak and
damage the meter.
At temperatures below −10 °C the batteries do not have
enough power to keep the internal clock functioning.
With the batteries and with the test strip drum the meter may be
stored at between +2 and +30 °C.
The temperature and humidity conditions under which the meter
can operate are +10 to +32 °C at 15 to 85 % relative humidity.
Sudden changes in temperature cause condensation to form in or
on the meter. If this happens, do not turn the meter on. Make
sure that it returns to ambient temperature slowly. Never keep it
in a room that is likely to harbour condensation (e.g. a bathroom).
