6 Storage, cleaning and disposal
The Lactate Scout 4 is an electronic
measuring device and must be handled and
stored with care.
You must ensure the measuring device is
protected against liquids, moisture, prolonged
solar radiation and excessive cold or heat
(below -20° C and above +50°C).
Heavy mechanical loads, improper
handling and contamination may impair
the functionality of the device or render it
completely inoperable.
Ensure that no liquid or dirt enters the inside
of the device through the openings (opening
for sensor and battery housing).
Any blood, test solution, dust or other
contaminants on the housing must be cleaned
using a soft, lint-free cloth or tear-resistant
cellulose cloth (e.g. paper towel). To do this,
moisten the cloth with a mild cleaning agent.
You can use water with a small amount of
washing-up liquid, for example. Clean the
measuring device before wiping it dry.
