11. Using SD CodeFree™ Test Strips
[ Important Test Strip Information ]
• Only use SD CodeFree™ test strips. Using other
test strips with this meter can cause inaccurate
results or even damage the meter.
• After removing a test strip from the container,
replace the container cap immediately and
close it tightly.
• Use the test strip within three minutes after
you take it out of the container.
• Store test strip containers in a cool, dry place
at 2-32°C (36-90°F). Keep away from direct
sunlight and heat. Do Not refrigerate test
strips.
• Do not expose test strips to heat, moisture or
humidity. Temperatures outside the required
range, as well as moisture and humidity (e.g.
bathroom, kitchen, laundry room, car, or
garage) can damage your test strips and lead
to inaccurate results.
