IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
• This meter and lancing device are for single patient use
only. Do Not share them with anyone else, including family
members! Do Not use on multiple patients!
• After use and exposure to blood, all parts of this kit are
considered biohazardous. A used kit may potentially transmit
infectious diseases even after you have performed cleaning
and disinfection.
Before you begin
Before using this product to test your blood glucose, carefully
read this Owner's Guide and the inserts that come with the
OneTouchSelect®Plus Test Strips, OneTouch Select®Plus
Control Solution and the OneTouch®Delica®Plus Lancing
Device.
Intended use
The OneTouchSelect Plus Simple®Blood Glucose Monitoring
System is intended to be used for the quantitative measurement
of glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn
from the fingertip. The system is intended to be used by a single
patient and should not be shared.
The OneTouchSelect Plus Simple®Blood Glucose Monitoring
System is intended for self-testing outside the body (in vitro
diagnostic use) by people with diabetes at home and with their
healthcare professionals in a clinical setting as an aid to monitor
the effectiveness of diabetes control.

The OneTouchSelect Plus Simple®Blood Glucose Monitoring
System is not to be used for the diagnosis of or screening of
diabetes or for neonatal use.
The OneTouchSelect Plus Simple®Blood Glucose Monitoring
System is not for use on critically ill patients, patients in shock,
dehydrated patients or hyperosmolar patients.
Test principle
Glucose in the blood sample mixes with the enzyme Glucose
Oxidase in the test strip and a small electric current is produced.
The strength of this current changes with the amount of glucose
in the blood sample. Your meter measures the current, calculates
your blood glucose level, displays the result, and stores it in its
memory.

Preparing for a test
Have these things ready when you test:
OneTouchSelect Plus Simple®Meter
OneTouchSelect®Plus Test Strips
Lancing device
Sterile lancets
NOTE:
• Use only OneTouchSelect®Plus Test Strips.
• Make sure your meter and test strips are about the same
temperature before you test.
• Do Not test if there is condensation (water build-up) on your
meter. Move your meter and test strips to a cool, dry spot and
wait for the meter surface to dry before testing.
• Keep test strips in a cool, dry place between 5°C and 30°C.
• Do Not open the test strip vial until you are ready to remove
a test strip and perform a test. Use the test strip immediately
after removing it from the vial, especially in high humidity
environments.
• Tightly close the cap on the vial immediately after use to
avoid contamination and damage.
• Store unused test strips only in their original vial.
• Do Not return the used test strip to the vial after performing
a test.
• Do Not re-use a test strip that had blood or control solution
applied to it. Test strips are for single use only.
• Do Not test with a test strip that is bent or damaged.
• With clean, dry hands, you may touch the test strip anywhere
on its surface. Do Not bend, cut or modify the test strip in any
way.
IMPORTANT: If another person assists you with testing,
the meter, lancing device and cap should always be cleaned
and disinfected prior to use by that person. See “Cleaning and
disinfection” in Section4.

BLOOD GLUCOSE TESTING
NOTE: Comparing your blood glucose test results taken with
this meter to your results taken from a different meter is not
recommended. Results may differ between meters and are not
a useful measure of whether your meter is working properly. To
check your meter accuracy, you should periodically compare
your meter results to those obtained from a lab. See “Comparing
meter results to laboratory results” in Section7.
CAUTION:
• Do Not use the OneTouchSelect Plus Simple®System when
PAM (Pralidoxime) is known or suspected to be in the patient's
whole blood sample, as it may cause inaccurate results.
• A haematocrit (percentage of your blood that is red blood
cells) that is either very high (above 55%) or very low (below
30%) can cause false results.
• Do Not use your test strips if your vial is damaged or left open
to air. This could lead to error messages or inaccurate results.
Contact Customer Care immediately if the test strip vial is
damaged. Contact information for Customer Care is listed at
the end of this Owner's Guide.
• If you cannot test due to a problem with your testing supplies,
contact your healthcare professional. Failure to test could
delay treatment decisions and lead to a serious medical
condition.
• Do Not use test strips after the expiry date printed on the vial.

BLOOD GLUCOSE TESTING
Preparing your lancing device
1. Remove the lancing device cap
Remove the cap by rotating it and then pulling it straight off
the device.
Twist the protective cover one full
turn until it separates from the
lancet. Save the protective cover
for lancet removal and disposal.
See “Removing the used lancet”.
2. Insert a sterile lancet into the lancing device
Align the lancet as shown here, so
that the lancet fits into the lancet
holder. Push the lancet into the
device until it snaps into place and
is fully seated in the holder.

BLOOD GLUCOSE TESTING
3. Replace the lancing device cap
Place the cap back onto the device; turn the cap or push the cap
straight on to secure it.
Ensure the cap is aligned as shown in the image.
4. Adjust the depth setting
The device has 13 puncture depth
settings (each dot shown between
numbers 1 to 7 on the Depth Wheel
indicates an additional available
depth setting). Adjust the depth by
turning the depth wheel. Smaller
numbers are for a shallower
puncture and larger numbers for a
deeper puncture.
NOTE: Try a shallower setting first and increase the depth until
you find the one deep enough to get a blood sample of the
proper size.
5. Cock the lancing device
Pull the slider back until it clicks.
If it does not click, it may already
have been cocked when you
inserted the lancet.

Gently squeeze and/or
massage your fingertip until a
round drop of blood forms.
NOTE: If the blood smears or runs,
Do Not use that sample. Dry the
area and gently squeeze another
drop of blood or puncture a
new site.
