CHAPTER 5

Care and Maintenance

General Care

To keep the bedside unit in good operating

condition, you must keep it clean and handle

it with care.

Follow these simple rules:

• Keep the test strip holder and lens area clean.

• Keep the unit dry and avoid exposing it to

extremes in temperature and humidity.

• Do not take apart the unit.

• If you drop the unit, inspect it for obvious

damage. Perform a quality control test prior

to running a patient blood glucose test.

When to Clean the Unit

• If dirt, blood, or lint is present.

• When an error message appears and the

troubleshooting solution indicates cleaning

the unit.

• As defined by your institution’s infection

control policies.
