Thanks for choosing OneTouch®!
The OneTouchVerio Flex™ Blood Glucose Monitoring
System is one of the latest product innovations from
OneTouch®.
Your OneTouchVerio Flex™ Meter is designed to connect
(sync) with a variety of compatible wireless devices
running software applications that let you review and
graph your results, and help identify patterns. Meter
results are sent to the compatible devices either through
BLUETOOTH®Smart (wireless) or USB cable connection.
Every OneTouch® Meter is designed to help you test your
blood glucose and manage your diabetes.
This Owner's Booklet offers a complete explanation of how
to use your new meter and testing supplies. It reviews the
do's and don'ts of testing your blood glucose level. Please
keep your Owner's Booklet in a safe place; you may want
to refer to it in the future.
We hope OneTouch® products and services will continue to
be a part of your life.

Intended use
The OneTouchVerio Flex™ 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 OneTouchVerio Flex™ Blood Glucose Monitoring
System is intended for self-testing outside the body
(in vitro diagnostic use) by people with diabetes at home
as an aid to monitor effectiveness of diabetes control.
Limitations
The OneTouchVerio Flex™ Blood Glucose Monitoring
System is intended to be used by a single patient and
should not be shared. The system is not to be used for the
diagnosis of or screening of diabetes or for neonatal use.
The system is not for use on critically ill patients, patients
in shock, severely dehydrated patients or hyperosmolar
patients.

Test principle
Glucose in the blood sample mixes with the enzyme
FAD-GDH (see page104) in the test strip and a small
electric current is produced. The strength of this current
calculates your blood glucose level. It then displays the
blood glucose result and stores it in the meter memory.
Use only OneTouchVerio® Control Solution and Test
Strips with the OneTouchVerio Flex™ Meter.
BLUETOOTH® Smart wireless
technology
BLUETOOTH®Smart wireless technology is used by
some smartphones and many other devices. Your
OneTouchVerio Flex™ Meter uses BLUETOOTH®Smart
wireless technology to pair and to send your glucose
results to compatible wireless devices.
The OneTouchVerio Flex™ Meter is designed to work with
the OneTouchReveal® Mobile App.
Visit www.OneTouch.com for information on which
wireless devices are compatible with your OneTouch Verio
Flex™ Meter, and where/how to download the OneTouch
Reveal® Mobile App on your compatible wireless device.
