User’s Manual
Please read this User’s Manual thoroughly
before using your blood glucose meter.

Dear EasyMax V2SMBG System Owner,
Thank you for using the EasyMax V2Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose (SMBG) System. We designed this
system to be dependable, easy-to-use, compact, lightweight and portable to help you monitor your blood
glucose on a regular basis.
Please read this manual thoroughly before you begin testing. This manual provides you and your diabetes
care team with important information and step-by-step direction to use the EasyMax V2Self-Monitoring Blood
Glucose System.
Thanks again for choosing the EasyMax V2SMBG.
Intended Use
The EasyMax V2Self Monitoring Blood Glucose Test System is intended for the quantitative measurement of
glucose in fresh capillary whole blood from fingertip, palm or forearm. Testing is done outside the body (In
Vitro diagnostic use). It is indicated for use at home (over the counter [OTC]) by a single patient with diabetes
and should not be shared, as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control. The system is not to be
used on neonates, nor for the diagnosis of, or screening for diabetes mellitus. Alternate site testing can be
only used during steady-state blood glucose conditions.

Important Safety Instructions
Lancets and meters are for single use only. A new, sterile lancet should be used one time you perform a test.
The lancing device, lancets and meter are NOT to be shared between users or other family members. Do NOT
use on multiple individuals. Sharing a lancing device and lancets may transmit bloodborne pathogens, such
as viral hepatitis.
All parts of the kit are considered biohazardous and may transmit infection, even if you have performed
cleaning and disinfection. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling the meter or lancing
device.

than One Person Poses Risk for Transmitting Bloodborne Pathogens: Initial Communication" (2010)

Important Information About Your New Meter
EasyMax V2blood glucose meter is designed and approved for testing fresh capillary whole blood
samples from your fingertip, palm and forearm. The meter is for in vitro use ONLY (for testing outside the
body). It should not be used to diagnose diabetes.
EasyMax V2blood glucose meter can only be used with EasyMax Blood Glucose Test Strips. Other test
strips will give inaccurate results.
Testing is not valid for neonatal blood specimens.
Do not disassemble the meter as this may cause damage to the components resulting in incorrect
readings. Disassembling the meter will also void the warranty.
Always keep the meter clean and store it in a safe place. Protect the meter from direct sunlight to ensure
a longer lifespan.
You should not store the meter and test strips in a car, a bathroom or a refrigerator.
Keep the meter, test strips and lancing device away from children and pets.
You should not test critically ill patients with home-use blood glucose meters.
Incorrect results may occur when performing the test. If your glucose results do not match how you feel,
please contact your healthcare professional immediately.
Remove batteries if the meter will not be used for one month or more.
Consult with your healthcare professional before testing on your palm or forearm.

Note:
Do not touch the strips with wet hands.
Do not use expired strips (the expiration date is shown on the bottle.)
Do not bend, cut or twist the strips.
Up to the altitude of 10,000 feet has effect on readings.
Health-Related Information
If you are very dehydrated, urinating frequently, low blood pressure, shock or hyperosmolar
hyperglycemic nonketotic coma (HHNKC), you may get a test result that is lower than what your blood
glucose really is. If you think you are dehydrated, call your doctor right away.
If you have followed the steps in the user’s manual, but still have symptoms that don’t seem to match
your test results, contact your Healthcare Professional or physician immediately. If you have questions
regarding the use of the meter, please call the Customer Care Service toll-free at 866-994-3345 (Eastern
Standard Time, Mon-Fri 8:00AM~6:00PM). During non-service hours, please contact your healthcare
provider.
Please read your test strip instructions carefully for additional health-related information.

Using EasyMax Blood Glucose Test Strip
Use only with EasyMax Blood Glucose Meters.
Run a control solution test every time you open a new box of test strips (See Chapter 2 "Control Solution
Testing.")
Keep the test strips in their original bottle.
After you take a test strip out, close the bottle immediately and make sure it has been closed tightly. This
keeps the test strips dry.
Use the test strip within three minutes after you take it out of the bottle.
The strip is for single use only. Do not reuse it.
Record the date you open the test strip bottle. Be sure to check the “Expiration date” on the test strip
bottle. The test strip is good for three months from the date the bottle is opened or until the expiration
date on the bottle, whichever comes first.
Store the test strip bottle and your meter in a cool dry place.
Store the test strips between 35.6°F ~86°F (2°C ~30°C). Do not freeze.
Do not apply blood or control solution to the test strip until you insert it into the meter.
Do not touch the test strip with wet hands. Do not bend, cut, or twist the test strips.
EasyMax Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose Test System is a “no code” system and does not require any
meter calibration.
