Important Information
►Severe dehydration and excessive water loss may cause readings
which are lower than actual values. If you believe you are suffering
from severe dehydration, consult a healthcare professional
immediately.
►If your blood glucose results are lower or higher than usual and
you do not have any symptoms of illness, rst repeat the test. If
you have symptoms or continue to get results which are higher or
lower than usual, follow the treatment advice of your healthcare
professional.
►Use only capillary whole blood sample to test your blood glucose.
Using other substances will give incorrect results.
►If you are experiencing symptoms that are inconsistent with your
blood glucose test results and you have followed all instructions
described in this owner’s manual, contact your healthcare
professional.
►We do not recommend using this product on severely hypotensive
individuals or patients in shock. Please consult your healthcare
professional before use.
►The measurement unit used for indicating the concentration of
blood or plasma glucose can either have a weight dimension
(mg/dL) or a molarity (mmol/L). The approximate calculation rule
for conversion of mg/dL in mmol/L is:
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
mg/dL
mmol/L
Divided by 18
Times 18
= mmol/L
= mg/dL
For example:
1) 120 mg/dL ÷ 18 = 6.6 mmol/L
2) 7.2 mmol/L x 18 = 129 mg/dL approximately.
Your GlucoRx Nexus / GlucoRx Nexus Blue meter is preset to
display results in mmol/L only.

Intended Use
Your system is intended for use outside the body (in vitro diagnostic
use) by people with diabetes at home and by healthcare professionals
in clinical settings as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes
control. It is intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of
glucose (sugar) in fresh whole blood samples (from the nger, palm,
forearm and upper arm).
It should not be used for the diagnosis of diabetes or testing on
newborns.
Professionals may test with capillary and venous whole blood; home
use is limited to capillary whole blood testing.
Test Principle
Your system measures the amount of sugar (glucose) in whole blood.
The glucose testing is based on the measurement of electrical current
generated by the reaction of glucose with the reagent in the strip.
Your meter measures the current, calculates the blood glucose level
then displays the result. The strength of the current produced by the
reaction depends on the amount of glucose in the blood sample.

Control Solution Testing
TaiDoc Control Solution contains a known amount of glucose that
reacts with your test strips and is used to ensure your meter and
strips are working together correctly.
Do a control solution test when:
you rst receive your meter,
at least once a week to routinely check your meter and test strips,
you begin using a new vial of test strips,
you suspect your meter or test strips are not working properly,
your blood glucose test results are not consistent with how you feel
or if you think the results are not accurate,
practicing the testing process, or
you have dropped or think you may have damaged your meter.
Performing a Control Solution Test
1. Insert a Test Strip to Turn on your Meter
Insert a test strip into your meter. Wait for the meter to display the
test strip and blood drop symbols.
BEFORE TESTING

18
3. Apply Control Solution.
Shake the control solution vial thoroughly before
use. Squeeze out a drop and wipe it off, then
squeeze another drop and place it on the tip of the
vial cap.
Hold the meter to move the absorbent hole of
test strip to touch the drop. Once the conrmation
window lls completely, your meter will begin
counting down.
To avoid contaminating the control solution, do not directly apply
control solution onto a strip.
2. Press M button to mark this test as a control solution test.
With “QC” displayed, the meter will store your test result in memory
under “QC”. If you press M button again, the “QC” will disappear and
this test is no longer a control solution test.
When doing a control solution test, you have to mark it so that the
test result will NOT mix with the blood glucose TEST RESULTS
stored in the memory. Failure to do so will mix up the blood
glucose test results with the control solution test results in memory.
WARNING

19
Out-of-range results
If you continue to have test results fall outside the range printed on
your test strip vial, the meter and strips may not be working together
properly. Do NOT test your blood. Contact GlucoRx Customer care on
01483 755133 for help.
The control solution range printed on your test strip vial is for
control solution use only. It is not a recommended range for your
blood glucose level.
See the Maintenance section for important information about
your control solution.
Example results range only! Please read the exact range from
your test strip vial.
NOTE
NOTE
4. Read and Compare the Result
After counting down to 0, the test result
of control solution will appear on your
display. Compare this result with the range
printed on your test strip vial and it should
fall within this range. If not, please read
the instructions again and repeat control
solution test.
