What is the right way to clean Accu-Chek Softclix Plus lancing device and how often should I clean it?
To keep your lancing device in tip-top condition, clean it regularly and wipe off any blood from it immediately. Clean your lancing device from the outside only. Follow a weekly cleaning regimen using a cloth moistened with 70% isopropanol or 70% ethanol (available from your pharmacy / chemist). In addition, thoroughly wipe the inside of the cap using a cotton bud moistened with 70% isopropanol. Allow your Accu-Chek Softclix Plus lancing device time to dry thoroughly. Never dip Accu-Chek Softclix Plus lancing device in water, isopropanol or any other liquid. This may damage internal parts, and impair operation of the lancing device. Use only 70% isopropanol or 70% ethanol to clean the lancing device. Other substances used for cleaning may attack the plastic and stop the lancing device from operating properly. Do not clean the Accu-Chek Softclix lancets.
