Technical information
Important Information About Your New Meter
• Your new meter is designed and approved for testing fresh capillary whole blood samples (for example,
blood from your fingertip or forearm). The meter is for outside the body (
in vitro
) use. It should not be
used to diagnose diabetes.
• Use only ACCU-CHEK Aviva test strips. Other test strips will give inaccurate results.
Health-Related Information
• If you are very dehydrated or urinating frequently, you may get a test result that is lower than what your
blood sugar really is. If you think you are dehydrated, call your doctor right away.
• If you have followed the steps in the booklet, but still have symptoms that don’t seem to match your
test results—or if you have questions—talk to your doctor.
• Refer to your test strip package insert for additional health-related information.
