Getting to know your instrument
The GL42 blood glucose monitor is intended for fast and simple blood glucose measurement of
fresh capillary blood samples, either for self-testing or in a clinical environment by trained personnel.
It enables you to measure your blood glucose quickly and easily, store the measured values and dis-
play the average of all measured values, thereby providing optimum assistance for monitoring your
diabetes. The test is performed exclusively externally (IVD).
The large display shows the measured values clearly. The user-friendly design with handy test strips
and the simple controls with just a small number of buttons guarantee simple, yet reliable measure-
ments.
