5 Operator Maintenance
5.1 Periodic Maintenance
Check your GMA now and then to make sure it is working
properly and nothing is damaged. Make sure the cord
that connects from your GMA to the glucose meter is not
frayed or damaged.
If your GMA needs repair or is not working right, contact
Polymap Wireless for service right away.
5.2 Cleaning your GMA
Although you should not need to clean your GMA very
often, here is how to do it:
1. Unplug the GMA from the OneTouch Ultra and
remove it from the mesh pocket.
2. Take a soft cloth and dampen it with water or a weak
solution of household dishwashing liquid mixed with
water. Wring out the cloth.
Warning: Do not use any sprays or put your GMA in any
liquid. Sprays and liquids may penetrate and damage the
unit.
3. Gently wipe the outside of the unit with the damp
cloth.
4. Reconnect the GMA to the glucose meter (see page
14), and close the mesh pocket.
