16. Limitations
1. No neonatal use
Do not sue for neonatal blood glucose testing.
2. Hematocrit range
Hematocrit in the range of 32~56% has been shown not to affect the glucose result. If you
do not know your hematocrit level, consult your healthcare professional.
3. Hemoglobin range
Hemoglobin levels of 500 mg/dL or below will not interfere with blood glucose test
results.
4. Elevated Cholesterol and Triglycerides
Cholesterol levels up to 500 mg/dL (12.9 mmol/L) and Triglycerides up to 1000 mg/dL
has been shown not to affect glucose results.
5. Medications
Interference was observed for therapeutic levels of L-DOPA.
No interference was shown for uric acid, acetaminophen, ascorbic acid and ibuprofen in
normal therapeutic levels. However, higher concentrations in blood may cause incorrect
results:
Uric acid: >10.9 mg/dL; acetaminophen: >6.2 mg/dL;
Ascorbic acid: >4.5 mg/dL; ibuprofen: >37.5 mg/dL.
6. The test strips may be used at altitudes up to 5,280 feet (1,609 m) without an effect on test
results.
7. Persons suffering from severe dehydration should not be tested using a capillary whole
blood sample.
8. Test results below 70 mg/dL indicate low blood glucose (hypoglycemia). Test results great-
er than 240 mg/dL indicate high blood glucose (hyperglycemia). If you get results below 70
mg/dL or above 240 mg/dL, repeat the test, and if the results are still below 70 mg/dL or
above 240 mg/dL, please consult your healthcare professional immediately.
9.Inaccurate results may occur in severely hypotensive individuals or patients in shock.
Inaccurate result may occur for individuals experiencing a hyperglycemic-hyperosmolar
state, with or without ketosis. Critically ill patients should not be tested with a blood

10. Recalling the Memory and Viewing the Average
A. Using the Meter Memory
The test results for blood sample will be stored in the memory automatically. The meter can
store up to 500 of the most recent rest results. You can also view the average of test results
for various periods of 7, 14, 28, 60 and 90 days. The control solution test results will not be
stored in memory.
(Note: Please make sure that you press C key when you run a Control Solution test, so that
the control test result will not be added to memory.)
B. Recalling the Test Results from the Meter Memory
1. With meter off, press M key to turn on the meter, the meter will display the total number
of test data stored in memory. Then the screen will display “001” as the sequential number
of the most recent test result in memory. The memorized test data will be displayed next.
If there is no memorized result in the meter, “---" is displayed and the meter will turn off
after 60 seconds if no action is taken.
(The meter will display “---" if no previous results were memorized.)
2. The screen will display each of the memorized test data in sequence. Press M and C key to
review your test results in memory forwards and backwards.
3. To turn off the meter, press M key for 2 seconds, or the meter will turn off automatically
after 60 seconds of no activity.
C. Viewing the Average (AVG) of Test Data in Memory
1. To display the average (AVG) test result, please turn meter off. Press C and M keys at the
same time and hold for about 2 seconds, wait for AVG displayed on screen, then release the
two buttons. The meter will be in the average mode with “AVG” font displayed.
2. When the “AVG” is flashing at the lower left corner of screen, the number 7 will be displayed
under AVG and the average of the last 7 days test results will be displayed in the center of the
screen. The number of tests done in the last 7 days will be also displayed at the lower right
corner of screen. If you want to see the average of 14, 28, 60 and 90 days, keep pressing the M
key to move the LCD display forward from 7 day average to 90 day average. The average
display will move from 90 days backward to 7 days if you continue to press C key.
3. Press the M key and hold for 2 seconds to exit the recall mode and turn off the meter, or the
meter will automatically power off after 60 seconds.
4. W hen “---” is displayed, showing that there are no test results in memory.

The 7 days average is the average of the last 7 day test results.
The 14 days average is the average of last 14 day test results.
The 28 days average is the average of last 28 day test results.
The 60 days average is the average of last 60 day test results.
The 90 days average is the average of last 90 day test results.
9. Runnig A Blood Glucose Test
11. Expected Values Reference
Note 1: Note 1: To reduce the chance of infection:
Never share a lancet or a lancing device with anyone.
Always use a new, sterile lancet. LANCETS ARE FOR SINGLE USE ONLY.
Note 2: If the meter and test strips are moved from one temperature to another, allow thirty (30) minutes for
them to adjust to the new temperature before performing a blood glucose test.
Blood glucose levels normally will vary from time to time depending on food intake,
medication dosages, health, stress or exercise. Consult your physician or healthcare
professional for the target glucose value appropriate for you.
Expected plasma blood glucose values for normal, nondiabetic adults are as follows.
Before eating < 100 mg/dL
Two hours after meals < 140 mg/dL
Easy Plus II meter gives plasma equivalent results.
12. Transmitting Results
Note:
Easy Plus II Glucose Meter allows you to transfer the test results stored in its memory to your personal
computer. However, you will need to order software and a Data Download Cable separately from your
distributor.
Please download the software and its data download procedure from our website. https://homeaide.us/. You
can also check with your distributor for the software download option. The meter still keeps the results in the
memory after transmitting.
1. Before transmitting test data, you will need to set up the download software and USB driver
on your PC. The complete installation procedures for software application could be found in
the first section of User Guide: Download Software for meter on CD.
2. Launch the software application (Meter Download) on PC after installation is complete. Then
connect your meter and PC with the download cable before starting the data download. Hit the
“Connect (Download)” button on PC screen to get ready for data receiving. For more detailed
information and procedures about data download from meter to PC, please refer to User
Guide: Download Software for meter on CD.
3. With the meter off, hold the M and C key down at the same time for 5 seconds until “PC” is
displayed.
4. Press the C key to start transmitting. The meter will display a flashing “PC” during the
transmission process. When the “PC” on the screen stops flashing, it indicates the transmis-
sion is completed. The meter will power off if no action is taken in 60 seconds or M key is
pressed for 2 seconds.
5. Once the download is completed, the download report could be exported to Microsoft Excel
file. You can view, rename or delete the exported excel files on PC if needed.
13. Maintenance of your system
Please, treat this meter with proper care, and keep it in good condition.
1. Store your meter in its case, in a clean dry place at 46~86°F (8~30°C).

which is well maintained and monitored by a healthcare provider.
14. Troubleshooting
Following is a summary of all Error Messages. These messages help to identify certain
problems, but do not appear in all cases when a problem has occurred. Improper use may
cause an inaccurate result without producing an error message or a symbol. In the event of
a problem, refer to the information in the table under Solution.
Error messages:
E_1 : The temperature is too low.
E_2 : The temperature is too high.
E_3 : Battery Low.
E_4 : Memory damaged.
E_5 : The strip is wet or used.
E_6 : Error in meter or strip.
HI : The glucose level is too high.
LO : The glucose level is too low.
Note: Your meter can show results either in “mg/dL” or “mmol/L” units. Mg/dL is the unit used in the U.S.,
Please contact the manufacturer if your meter does not display mg/dL when you turn it on. The factory
set default for the meter is mg/dL, in the event that the meter loses power or the batteries are changed,
the factory set default is mg/dL. It is very important to use the correct unit of measurement to properly
manage your diabetes. If you live in the USA you should use mg/dL; your result will never have a
decimal point. If you live in Canada and some European countries you should use mmol/L; your result
will always have a decimal point. The mg/dL display is on by default.
