Performingatest
1 Wash your hands with soap and warm water. Dry them
thoroughly.
2 Place the meter on a level, vibration-free surface or hold it
in your hand so it is roughly horizontal.
3 Power the meter on by pressing the Enter button .
4 After startup, Test is preselected and highlighted. Press the
Enter button to start the test.
Alternatively, you can insert a test strip to power it on, which
will put the meter – after completing the startup – into test
mode directly.
The test strip symbol prompts you to insert a test strip.
5 Remove a test strip from its container. Immediately after
removing a test strip, close the container again with the
stopper.
6 Hold the test strip so the lettering, the arrows, and the
blood drop symbols are facing upward.
7 Slide the test strip into the test strip guide in the direction
indicated by the arrows. Slide the test strip in as far as it
will go. A beep tone indicates that the test strip has been
detected (unless you have disabled the beeper function).
A beep tone indicates that you have applied enough blood
(unless you have disabled the beeper function).
The meter now performs an automatic quality control check
and starts the coagulation measurement.
The result is displayed and automatically saved to memory.
Thetestisnowcompleted.
• If you have not inserted the code chip yet, or if it does not
match the inserted strip, you will be prompted to insert the
correct code chip.
• When the test strip check has been completed successfully,
the meter indicates that the test strip is warming up.
• Once the warming-up process is complete, the meter beeps
(unless you have disabled the beeper function) and displays
the test strip and blood drop symbols. The meter is ready
to perform the test, you have 180 seconds to apply blood to
the test strip.
8 Now lance the side of a ngertip with the lancing device by
pressing the yellow release button.
9 Massage the lanced nger until a drop of blood is formed.
CAUTION:Donotpressorsqueezethenger.
10 Apply the rstdropofblood directly from the nger to the
semicircular, transparent sample application area of the test
strip.
CAUTION:Apply the blood drop to the test strip within
15seconds of lancing the ngertip. Applying blood
after this period of time would falsify the result, as the
coagulation process would already have begun.
