To ensure effective disinfection, let the solution sit on the meter, housing,
orange lancet cover, and white cartridge cover for at least two (2) minutes.
Allow the meter, housing, orange lancet cover, white cartridge cover and
cartridge cap to completely dry before use. Wipe off any remaining residues
with a clean, soft, and dry paper cloth.
Your Dario LC System has an expected life of three (3) years. It should
withstand the cleaning and disinfection recommended (156 cycles) in this user
guide.
It is recommended that you clean and disinfect the entire system as least once
per week and whenever you notice blood, dirt, or visible residue.
If you notice changes in appearance (such as color fading, cracking,
discoloration or display malfunctions) or you are obtaining results that are not
accurate, stop using the meter or lancing device and call customer support toll-
