Dear owner of GlucoRx Q Blood Glucose Monitoring System.
Your system consists of three main products: the meter, test strips and control solution.
These products have been designed,tested and proven to work together as a system to
produce accurate blood glucose test results.Only use GlucoRx Q test strips and control
solution with the GlucoRx Q Blood Glucose Monitoring System.
Intended Use
This system is intended for external use (in vitro diagnostic use) only. It is used for the
quantitative measurement of glucose in samples of fresh capillary whole blood taken from
the finger,palm, forearm and upper arm. It is not intended to diagnose or screen for diabetes
mellitus, or to be used on neonates.
It allows blood glucose levels to be measured by people with diabetes at home and by
healthcare professionals in clinical settings as an aid to monitoring the effectiveness of
diabetes control.
This system provides you with plasma equivalent results and is displayed in millimoles of
glucose per litre of blood (mmol/L).

Shake your control solution vial thoroughly before use.
Squeeze out a drop and wipe it off, then squeeze out
another drop and place it on the tip of the vial cap. Hold
your meter to move the absorbent hole of the test strip to
touch the drop. Once the confirmation window fills
completely, your meter will begin counting down.To avoid
contaminating the control solution, do not directly apply
control solution onto a strip.
After your meter counts to 0,the result of the control solution
test will appear.Compare the result with the range printed on
your test strip vial.The result should fall within this range.
Out-of-range results
If you continue to have test results fall outside the range printed on the test strip vial, your
meter and/or strips may not be working properly.Do NOT test your blood. Contact
GlucoRx Customer Services on 01483-755133.
Every time you perform a control solution test, you must enter “QC” test mode so that
the test result will not be stored in the meter memory.
CAUTION
Preparing your Lancing Device for Blood Testing
Please follow the instructions in the lancing device insert for collecting a blood sample.
Never share a lancet or the lancing device.GlucoRx Lancing device is for self-use only.
STEP 1. Insert a test strip to turn on your meter
Wait for the meter to display “ ”.
STEP 2. Select the appropriate measuring mode by pressing M button
For selecting the measurement mode, please refer to the “FOUR MEASURING MODES”
TESTING YOUR BLOOD
Our control solution contains a known amount of glucose that reacts with test strips. By
comparing the result of the control solution test with the expected range printed on your
test strip vial label, you can check that your meter and test strips are working together as a
system and that you are performing the test correctly.It is very important that you perform
this simple check routinely to make sure you get accurate results.
HOW TO PERFORM A CONTROL SOLUTION TEST
STEP1. Insert test strip
Insert a test strip into the test slot with the contact bars end first and facing up.(Contact bars
must be inserted all the way into your meter or you may get an inaccurate test result.) The
meter turns on automatically and displays the following in sequence:
CHECKING YOUR SYSTEM WITH CONTROL SOLUTION
STEP 3. Apply blood sample
Obtain a drop of blood of at least 0.7 µL using your lancing device.Use the clear cap for sites
other than fingers and refer to the strip package insert for more details.

For self-testing.
You can test on a variety of locations on your body.
Important: There are limitations with AST. Please consult your health-
care professional before you perform AST.
When to use AST?
Food, medication, illness, stress and exercise can affect blood glucose levels. Capillary
blood at the fingertip reflects these changes faster than capillary blood at other sites. Thus
when testing blood glucose during or immediately after a meal, physical exercise or any
other event, take a blood sample from your finger only.
We strongly recommend that you perform AST ONLY at the following times:
• In a pre-meal or fasting state (more than 2 hours since your last meal).
•Two hours or more after taking insulin.
•Two hours or more after exercise.
Do NOT use AST if:
•You think your blood glucose is low.
•You are unaware you have hypoglycaemia
•You are testing for hyperglycaemia
•Your AST results do not match the way you feel.
•Your routine blood glucose results often fluctuate.
ALTERNATIVE SITE TESTING (AST)
If the confirmation window is not filled completely before your meter begins to count down,
do not add more blood to the test strip. Discard the test strip and start again. If you have
trouble filling the test strip, please call GlucoRx on 01483 755133 for assistance.
Gently apply a drop of blood to the absorbent hole of your test strip at a titled angle.The
confirmation window should be completely filled if enough blood sample has been
applied. Do NOT remove your finger until you hear a beep sound.
STEP 4. Get result
The blood glucose result will be stored in the memory automatically.
If you do not apply a blood sample within 3 minutes, your meter will turn itself off.You
must remove the test strip and insert it back into the meter to restart your test.
NOTE
1. Please do not change your treatment based on the result without first consulting
your healthcare professional.
2.Turn your meter off by removing the test strip.Discard the used test strip and lancet
carefully according to your local regulations.
Warning:
STEP 1. Enter the memory mode
With your meter turned off, press M twice. The first test
result will appear, indicating that you are in the memory
mode.
When using your meter for the first time “---” will appear,
indicating that there are no test results in the memory.
Viewing Results
Your Meter stores the 450 most recent blood glucose test results with date and time in its
memory.You can review the test results with these easy steps.
STEP 2. Recall test results
If you continue to press M, you can then review the last 450 tests in your memory.
When the memory is full, the oldest result will be deleted when the newest is added.
