Important Information: Read This First!

For optimum safety and benefits, please read the entire manual

contents before using the system.

Intended use:

CareSens II Plus Blood Glucose Monitoring System is used for the

quantitative measurement of the glucose level in capillary whole

blood as an aid in monitoring diabetes management effectively

at home or in clinical settings. CareSens II Plus Blood Glucose

Monitoring System should be used only for self-testing outside the

body (in vitro diagnostic use only). CareSens II Plus Blood Glucose

Monitoring System should not be used for the diagnosis of diabetes

or for testing newborns. Testing sites include the traditional fingertip

testing along with alternate site testing on forearm and palm.

For in vitro diagnostic use Authorised representative

This product fulfills the requirements for Directive 98/79/EC on in

vitro diagnostic medical devices

Cautions for safety and optimum product use

Use by (unopened or opened test strip vial)

Do not discard this product with other household-type waste

Do not reuse Batch code

Consult instructions for use Manufacturer

Temperature limitation Serial number

Meaning of Symbols Used:

• Glucose in blood samples reacts with the chemical in the test strip

to produce a small electrical current. The CareSens II Plus meter

detects this electrical current and measures the amount of glucose

in the blood sample.

• The CareSens II Plus blood glucose meter should be used only with

the CareSens Test Strips.

• An abnormally high or low red blood cell count (hematocrit level

over 65% or below 15%) may produce inaccurate results.

• If your test result is below 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L) or above

240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L), consult a healthcare professional

immediately.

• Inaccurate results may occur in severely hypotensive individuals or

patients in shock. Inaccurate low results may occur for individuals

experiencing a hyperglycemic- hyperosmolar state, with or without

ketosis. Critically ill patients should not be tested with blood

glucose meters.

• Inaccurate results may occur in patients undergoing oxygen

therapy.

representative or visit www.i-sens.com for more information.

Caring for Your System

Use a soft cloth or tissue to wipe the meter exterior. If necessary, dip

the soft cloth or tissue in a small amount of alcohol.

Do not use organic solvents such as benzene or acetone, or household

and industrial cleaners that may cause irreparable damage to the

meter.

Caution:

• Do not expose the meter to direct sunlight, heat, or excessive

humidity for an extended period of time.

• Do not let dirt, dust, blood, or water enter into the meter’s test strip

port.

• Do not drop the meter or submit it to strong shock.

• Do not try to fix or alter the meter in any way.

• Strong electromagnetic radiation may interfere with the proper

operation of this device. Keep the device away from sources of

strong electromagnetic radiation, especially when measuring your

blood glucose.

• Store all the meter components in the carrying case to prevent loss

and help keep the meter clean.

Disposal of the meter

If you need to throw your meter away, you should follow

existing policies and procedures of your own country or region.

For information about correct disposal, please contact your
