Cleaning and Disinfecting Your Meter
Cleaning and disinfecting your meter are very important in the prevention of infectious
disease. Cleaning is the removal of dust and dirt from the meter surface so no dust or dirt
gets inside the meter. Cleaning must be performed using a Clorox Healthcare Germicidal
wipe before each disinfection step. Disinfection is the removal of blood borne pathogens
that reduces your exposure to disease.
