Disposing of your meter
Disposing of your meter
During blood glucose testing the meter may come into contact with blood. Used meters therefore carry a
risk of infection. After having removed the battery, please dispose of your used meter according to the
regulations applicable in your country. For information about correct disposal, please contact your local
council or authority.
Healthcare professionals must dispose of used meters according to the health and safety policy of their
laboratory or institution.
The meter falls outside the scope of the European Directive 2002/96/EC (Directive on waste electrical and
electronic equipment).
j Dispose of the battery in an environmentally friendly way at a collection depot or follow local
guidelines.*
