Outline of PocketChem UA Introduction
The AUTION MICRO (PU-4210) is a small portable urine-analyzing device

which anyone can use anytime, anywhere. Since the Printer is removed
from the Analyzer, you can operate it by a minimal key operation.
The device is equipped with transmission capability to adapt to
systematization.
Characteristics
Minimum Maintenance
The only necessary maintenance item is cleaning the Strip Holder.
Long Life Light Source

Use of LED and short-time lighting enables a longer light source life.
Temperature Correction Function

An automatic correction function, which is provided by the internal thermal
sensor, solves any errors caused by temperature changes in the environment.
Power Source
Use a dry battery or a AC adapter when using the Analyzer alone, and use the
AC adapter when using it with a Printer.
Regent Selection
AUTION Sticks 10EA and Uriflet 9UB are available to use.
100 memories
Maximum 100 measurement results can be stored.
When more than 100 samples have been measured, older data will be automatically
deleted in order.

Cautions Measurement
Handling Samples
● Wear protective gloves to prevent exposure to pathogenic microbes.
● Use a fresh urine sample. If the sample urine is not measured within an
hour after collection, cap it tightly and keep it refrigerated. Be sure to
allow it to reach to room temperature before measurement.
● Mix the sample thoroughly before measurement. Do NOT centrifuge them.
● Prepare an adequate amount of samples so that the whole pad portion of

the Test Strip can be immersed.
● Do NOT add any preservative, disinfectant, or detergent to the sample.
● Keep the sample out of direct sunlight.
● If samples containing ascorbic acid are measured, the measured values

of glucose and occult blood are occasionally lower than the real values.
● If drug-administered urine or visually observed hematuria are measured,

correct measurement results sometimes cannot be obtained.
AUTION MICRO 12
Cautions Measurement
Handling Test Strips
● Do NOT use Test Strips of other manufacturers.

Use only our Test Strips,“AUTION Sticks, Uriflet”
.
Read the attached manuals of the Test Strips.
● Do NOT use expired Test Strips.

Do NOT use expired Test Strips and/or Test Strips if the reagent pads
show any signs of discoloration, deformation or deterioration.
● Prepare Test Strips just before the measurement.

Take out only the necessary number of Test Strips to use and close the
cap. If Test Strips are left out for a long time, they may absorb humidity
or collect dust, causing incorrect measurement results.
● Do NOT touch the reagent pad of the Test Strip.

Do NOT touch the reagent pad of the Test Strip, otherwise correct
measurement results may not be obtained.
● Set Test Strip type.

Set the Test Strip type before measurement. If different Test Strips are
used, correct measurement results may not be obtained.
● Keep the desiccant.

Keep the desiccant contained in the Test Strip container until all Test
Strips are used.
