How to clean/disinfect
1 Remove the meter from the base unit prior to
cleaning/disinfecting.
2 Power off the meter.
3 Place the meter on a level surface.
4 Gently wipe over the surfaces (touchscreen,
housing) with a soft, lint-free cloth slightly
dampened (not wet).
If using commercially available pre-moistened cleaning/
disinfection wipes, squeeze off excess solution or blot
on a dry paper towel to remove any excess solution
before wiping the surface of the meter.
5 Carefully wipe over the test strip port area, making
sure that no liquid enters the test strip port.
If spraying the meter, place it on a flat surface or
table. Wear gloves. Be aware that the meter may
become slippery when wet. Do not let the meter
drop! Do not spray while the meter is docked in the
base unit!
