OPERATOR'S MANUAL
Step 1. Insert a test strip into the meter with the arrow facing up. Make sure to
firmly and completely insert the test strip into the meter. The meter will turn on
automatically.
Step 2. When the blood drop icon appears on the screen, shake the bottle of
control solution and then squeeze a drop of the control solution onto a clean,
dry, non-absorbent surface such as a table top. Bring the test strip gently to the
drop of control solution so the sampling end of the test strip touches the control.
The drop of control solution will be drawn in automatically by the test strip.
Step 3. When the test strip confirmation window is full, the meter will beep.
The meter will count down from five seconds and then show the control
solution result.
Step 4. Press the M button to mark the control solution result. The control
solution bottle symbol will appear on the display with the result.
Step 5. Compare the result on the screen to the control solution
range printed on the test strip bottle.
NOTE:
»Mark all control solution tests with the control solution symbol to
distinguish them from blood glucose test results in the meter memory.
Marked control solution results will not be included in 14 day average.
»Each LOT of test strip vial may have a different acceptable range.
Step 6. Eject the test strip into a proper waste container.
