Handling test strips
Note
• Securely close the test strip box immediately after taking out a test strip.
• Do not use the test strips if they have expired. The use of expired test strips may lead to incorrect
measurements. The expiry date is located next to the hourglass symbol on the box or on the re-
spective film packaging of the individual test strips.
• Test strips expire 18 months after the box is opened. Make a note of the expiry date (opening date
+ 18 months
18 M
) on the label. The shelf life is limited to the expiry date (see date next to the hour-
glass symbol ). This does not apply for individual test strips, which are to be used immediately
after opening.
• Discontinue use of the test strips if one of the two expiry dates ( /
18 M
) has passed.
• You can touch any part of the test strip with clean, dry hands.
• Use the test strip for measurement immediately after removing it from the box/film packaging.
• Do not bend, cut or otherwise modify the test strips.
• Do not use test strips that have come into contact with fluids.
Storing test strips

• Keep the test strips in a cool, dry place above +2°C and below +30°C. Do not expose the test strips
to direct sunlight or heat. Do not store in your vehicle, in the bathroom or in a cooling appliance.
• Permitted relative humidity: below 90%.
• The test strips must be stored in the original box/unopened film packaging – never use other con-
tainers.
