Run a control solution test every time you open a new box of
test strips (See Chapter „Control Solution Testing.")
•
Keep the test strips in their original bottle.

After you take a test strip out of the bottle, tightly close the
bottle immediately. This keeps the test strips dry.

Use the test strip within three minutes after taking it out
of the bottle.

The strip is for single use only. Do not reuse it.

Record the date you open the test strip bottle. Be sure to
check the expiration date on the test strip bottle. The test
strip is good for 6 months from the date the bottle is opened
or until the expiration date on the bottle, whichever comes
first.

Store the test strip bottle and your system in a cool dry
place.

Store the test strips between 2°C
not freeze.

Do not apply blood or control solution to the test strip be-
fore you insert it into the system.
