Abbott FreeStyle Precision Pro Cleaning and Disinfecting

Does anyone mind sharing your policy for cleaning and disinfecting your FSPP meters?
The manufacturer says to use the Dispatch (0.65%) bleach wipes. We previously had the PXP meters and always used the Super Sani Cloth wipes. Do your operators find it difficult to wait 4 minutes between patient testing for the kill time?
Do you have issues with the operators using these wipes on other devices that should not have bleach used on them?
Any input is appreciated!

We had been using the Super Sani Cloth for quite a while since moving to the FSPP because we didn't realize it had changed until a hospital inspection we had recently. I don't get why Abbott also says the kill time is 1 minute, but I think the wipes say 4 minutes.
If the manufacturer guidelines say to use the 0.65% dispatch bleach wipes, how are you getting around that?
