2.2.3 Handling Test Strips
REFERENCE: Purchase the test strips specified for the instrument because the strips are not
supplied with the instrument.
■ Use only test strips specified for the instrument.
“AUTION Sticks 9EB” are available for use with the instrument. Carefully read the package insert
and observe the expiration date.
■ Check the test strips before use.
Do not use the test strips beyond the expiration date or test strips having discolored pad area even if
they are within the expiration date.
■ Prepare the test strips just before testing.
Take as many test strips as you need out of the bottles and load them into the feeders just before
testing. Each feeder can contain up to 200 test strips (equivalent to 2 bottles), but the quality of the
strips is assured only for 3 days. Test strips absorb moisture in the air, which may alter their quality
and produce incorrect results. The test strip bottles should be securely capped immediately after
taking out the strips.
■ Do not touch the pad area on the test strips.
Touching the test strips can cause sebum to adhere to the surface, whereby producing incorrect
results.
■ Correctly set the type of test strip to be used by key operation.
Before carrying out measurement, set the type of the test strip you are to use by key operation. An
incorrect test strip setting can produce incorrect results.
