Use only Accu-Chek Compact test strip drums. Other test strips cannot be used to perform tests.
If you insert a different test strip drum, the following message will be displayed:
The voice unit informs you as soon as the two devices are back in infrared
contact.
i
Only open the drum compartment when you intend to insert a new test strip
drum or the meter instructs you to clean the measuring window (see Chapter
22.1). If you open and close the drum compartment while a drum is still inside, the meter assumes that you have
inserted a drum that is already partly used (see below).
Test strip drum use-by period
When you insert a new drum, the meter starts to count the number of days the drum has been in the meter. Each drum must
be used within the 90-day use-by period.
If a drum has been in the meter for more than 90 days and you turn the meter on to perform a blood glucose test, the follow-
ing symbols appear flashing in the display:
 test strip and blood drop, indicating that you may now apply blood,
 drum, bottle and clock, indicating that the 90-day use-by period for the drum has
expired.
