Description/ Intended Use:
CalCheck is a reusable device. Hygiena recommends incorporating
CalCheck into a quality control program to verify that the luminometer
continues to operate correctly and is within specifications. When powered
on by pressing the button on CalCheck's cap, the device emits a 3-second
green LED light output. In the off state, CalCheck can be used as a
negative control to alert users to background instrument light leakage or
rare sensor calibration errors. Hygiena recommends verification of
luminometer calibration with CalCheck at a regular interval (e.g., weekly,
monthly) as specified by user-defined quality procedures.
Instructions:
Do not twist or bend CalCheck.
1. Turn on EnSURE™ Touch
2. Press the Pink Check Calibration App
3. Follow steps on screen to initiate negative calibration check.
4. Follow steps on screen to initiate positive calibration check.
5. Upon completion, results are automatically recorded in the instrument
and will be synced to your SureTrend™ Cloud account when connected to
WiFi.
Troubleshooting:
Higher-than-expected CalCheck RLU readings indicate system calibration
failure. Physical contamination can cause lower-than-expected CalCheck
RLU readings.
• Clean outside of rod with lint-free cloth containing isopropyl or ethyl
alcohol. Air dry and repeat reading.

• If issue is not resolved, contact Hygiena for technical support.
Incorporating CalCheck into a Quality Control Program:
CalCheck is designed to be incorporated into a quality control program that
monitors and tracks performance of Hygiena luminometer(s). For optimum
recordkeeping, it is recommended that a specific location be programmed in
SureTrend™ Cloud data analysis software for measuring CalCheck on
luminometer.
Storage & Shelf Life:
• Store at 10 – 25 °C (50 – 77 °F) in original packaging.
• If CalCheck is exposed to extreme temperatures (direct sunlight, heat,
refrigeration, or frozen), allow device to acclimate to ambient
temperature (10 – 25 °C / 50 – 77 °F) for 30 minutes before use.
• Take care to not press power button during storage as this will shorten
battery life.
• Replace CalCheck as needed. Refer to expiration date on label.
Battery Replacement:
• When button cap glows red, CalCheck is not ready to perform a
positive check and may be approaching end of battery life. Wait 2
minutes and try again. If red light continues to appear, battery should
be replaced.
• If light remains dark upon pressing button, battery should be replaced.
• CalCheck is powered by 1-CR1025 coin lithium battery (3V) available
from any common battery supplier. Battery door is located on
CalCheck’s black cap. Remove by inserting your fingernail along edge
of door and gently removing cover. Insert new battery and replace
door.
Caution:
Wait 2 minutes between each positive reading. Repeatedly activating
CalCheck may drain battery prematurely.
Disposal:
CalCheck contains RoHS-compliant materials and a small battery. With
battery in place, CalCheck should be discarded as electronic waste. With
battery removed, CalCheck may be disposed as trash. CAUTION – RISK
OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE.
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS.
