Measurement and storage conditions

Never try to speed up warming or cooling of your meter, e.g. by
placing it on a radiator or in a refrigerator. Doing so can damage
the meter and cause it to give incorrect results. Incorrect results
can cause the wrong therapeutic decision to be taken and so
produce serious adverse health effects.
Keep the finger pricker without a lancet inserted.
Never expose the finger pricker to high temperatures (e.g. in a
hot car). High temperatures can cause parts of the finger pricker
to become warped, so impairing its operation.
11.2 Light conditions
All displayed numbers and symbols appear yellow. Bright light shining
on the display may make them difficult to read. Shield the meter if nec-
essary using your body, for instance.
Keep the meter away from very strong light sources (e.g. direct
sunlight, studio lighting, spot lights, etc.). These may interfere
with the proper functioning of the meter and cause error mes-
sages to be displayed.
