- 1. Do not place in a place exposed to direct sunlight or high temperature and humidity, do not drop the machine to the ground and avoid collision, do not disassemble or repair or modify the body or wristband of the blood pressure monitor by yourself;
- 2. The blood glucose meter must be used with the same brand of test strips, and cannot be mixed. Do not distribute test strips and use them within 3 months after opening (note that they are within the expiration date). Some blood glucose test strips are different for each batch. You need to enter the barcode number of the new test strip into the instrument before changing, otherwise it will affect the test results;
- 3.Do not use mobile phones or other equipment that generates electromagnetic interference near the product;
- 4. Please use No. 7 manganese or alkaline dry batteries (2 sections), do not use other batteries, and do not mix new and old batteries and different types of batteries! Remove the dry batteries when not used for a long time (more than 1 month);
- 5. Sterilize with alcohol before testing, and take blood after the alcohol is dry to prevent alcohol from mixing into the blood. Can not be disinfected with iodine, because iodine will chemically react with the test agent on the test strip, affecting the accuracy of the test;
- 6. Patients make self-judgment based on measurement results. Self-treatment is very dangerous. Please do not diagnose by yourself or change your medical treatment behavior without the permission of a physician.

When taking blood, it is found that the amount of blood is small and the fingers cannot be squeezed, otherwise the interstitial fluid will be mixed and the blood glucose concentration will be disturbed. To ensure sufficient blood collection, you can soak your hands in warm water before drooping for 30 seconds. In addition, when piercing, press the needle once and eject it, so as not to pierce too shallowly;
