Testing and storage conditions
208
Tests cannot be performed at temperatures below
+8 and above +42 °C. In this event, the following
error message appears:
Do not store the
fi
nger pricker in a primed state and
do not store it for any length of time in a place
where the temperature is very low or high, e.g. in a
hot car. This can cause parts of the
fi
nger pricker to
become warped, so impairing its operation.
15.2 Humidity
Only perform blood glucose tests at a relative humidity
between 15 and 85 %.
Store the meter in a place with a relative humidity
between 15 and 93 %.
Sudden changes in temperature can cause
condensation to form in or on the meter. If this
happens, do not turn the meter on. Make sure
that it returns to ambient temperature slowly.
Never store the meter in a room that is likely to
harbour condensation (e.g. bathroom).
Never try to speed up the cooling or warming
of your meter, e.g. by placing it in the refriger-
ator or on a radiator. Doing so can damage
the meter and cause it to deliver incorrect
results. Incorrect results can cause the wrong
therapeutic decision to be taken and so
produce serious adverse health effects.
