8.TAKING CARE OF THE METER

Your ONE TOUCH® BASIC® Meter is simple to use and easy to main- tain. However, it must be handled carefully and cleaned regularly to remain in good operating condition. You should follow these rules at all times:

■Keep the Test Strip Holder and Test Area clean.

■Do not drop or toss the Meter. The Meter’s electronics could be damaged by such treatment. If you drop the Meter, make sure the Test

Strip Holder is still securely in place and check the Meter with the Check Strip before doing a blood glucose test.

■Avoid exposing the Meter or Test Strips to extremes in temperature or humidity for long periods of time. For example, do not store the Meter or Test Strips in your car.

■Never let your Meter get wet. The Meter could be permanently damaged if water or other liquids get inside.
