Important Safety Information
Special Information for Caregivers
• Consult your healthcare professional to determine if it is appropriate for your child to be taught how to
use the meter system or any other medical products.
• Some people with diabetes do not experience symptoms of low blood glucose (hypoglycemia). Others,
such as children or people who are unconscious or have certain disabilities, may not be able to
communicate their symptoms to caregivers. For these reasons, do not change any therapy without first
talking to a healthcare professional.

Before You Start Testing

WARNING
• Carefully read and follow the instructions in the User's Manual and package inserts for the
test strips and control solutions. It is very important to follow the instructions in order to
avoid an incorrect test result that leads to improper therapy.
• Inspect the test strip container before using the test strips for the first time. If you see any
damage to the container cap or if anything prevents the cap from closing properly, do not
use the test strips. Contact the Accu-Chek Customer Care Service Center. Damaged test
strips can cause inaccurate results, which could lead to improper therapy.
• The meter, test strips, and control solution are only for use outside the body (in vitro). Do
not eat the test strips. Do not swallow or inject the control solution or use the control
solution for any purpose other than testing the Accu-Chek Guide Me system.
NOTE
Set the time and date on the meter before you begin testing.
