So that the meter works reliably and you obtain accu-

rate results, make sure that the conditions listed on 

the following pages are met.

11.1  Temperature

 For blood glucose tests and performance checks 

the temperature must be between +10 and 

+40 °C.

 If the temperature is at the limits of the permitted 

range (between +5 and +10 °C or between +40 

and +45 °C), you can still perform a test. The 

thermometer symbol will, however, be displayed 

(see also Chapter 12.1).

  Do not use results obtained at the limits of 

the permitted temperature range as a basis 

for making therapeutic decisions, as they 

could be incorrect. Incorrect results can 

cause the wrong therapy recommendation 

to be made and so lead to serious adverse 

health effects.
