Thank you for choosing the TEE2 Plus Blood Glucose Monitoring
System. The system provides you with rapid and convenient
blood glucose in vitro (i.e., outside the body) diagnostic
monitoring. You can obtain accurate results in just 5 seconds
with a small (0.5 µL) blood sample.
Test results can be sent to a smartphone through Bluetooth®
wireless connection.
Welcome to the TEE2 Plus
Blood Glucose Monitoring System
Bluetooth wireless technology is used by some smartphones and
many other devices. TEE2 Plus Meter uses Bluetooth wireless
technology to pair* and to send your glucose results to a
smartphone.
The TEE2 Plus Meter is designed to work with the SmartLog™
mobile app. When using the TEE2 Plus System, we suggest you
pair your TEE2 Plus Meter with your smartphone and track your
results.
Bluetooth®wireless technology
* The process of creating a connection between two Bluetooth
devices. An auto-generated passkey has to be exchanged
between the two devices. Once the devices are paired, they will
automatically communicate with each other when the
Bluetooth feature is activated.

wireless devices is restricted, such as hospitals, some healthcare
professional offices, and aeroplanes.

Important Information: Read This First!
For optimum safety and benefits, please read the entire
manual contents before using the system.
Intended use:
TEE2 Plus Blood Glucose Monitoring System is used for the
quantitative measurement of the glucose level in capillary
whole blood as an aid in monitoring diabetes management
effectively at home or in clinical settings. TEE2 Plus Blood
Glucose Monitoring System should be used only for self-
testing outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use only). TEE2
Plus Blood Glucose Monitoring System should not be used
for the diagnosis of diabetes or for testing newborns. Testing
sites include the traditional fingertip testing along with
alternate site testing on forearm and palm.
Meaning of Symbols Used:
For in vitro diagnostic use Authorised representative
This product fulfills the requirements for Directive 98/79/EC
on in vitro diagnostic medical devices
Cautions for safety and optimum product use

•
Glucose in blood samples reacts with the chemical in the
test strip to produce a small electrical current. The TEE2
Plus meter detects this electrical current and measures the
amount of glucose in the blood sample.
•
The TEE2 Plus blood glucose meter is designed to minimise
code related errors in monitoring by using the no-coding
function.
•
The TEE2 Plus blood glucose meter should be used only
with the TEE2 Test Strips.
•
An abnormally high or low red blood cell count (hematocrit
level over 65 % or below 15 %) may produce inaccurate
results.
•
If your test result is below 3.3 mmol/L or above 13.3 mmol/L,
consult a healthcare professional immediately.
•
Inaccurate results may occur in severely hypotensive
individuals or patients in shock. Inaccurate low results
may occur for individuals experiencing a hyperglycemic-
hyperosmolar state, with or without ketosis. Critically ill
patients should not be tested with blood glucose meters.
•
Inaccurate results may occur in patients undergoing oxygen
therapy.

cover in the direction of the arrow to open
the battery compartment.
Step 2
Remove the used batteries one at a time.
Slip your index finger under the battery to
lift and pull out as shown. Insert two new
batteries with the + side facing up and
make sure the batteries are inserted firmly.
Step 3
Place the cover on the battery
compartment. Push it down until you hear
the tab click into place.

Caring for Your System
Use a soft cloth or tissue to wipe the meter exterior. If necessary,
dip the soft cloth or tissue in a small amount of alcohol.
Do not use organic solvents such as benzene or acetone, or
household and industrial cleaners that may cause irreparable
damage to the meter.
Caution:
•
Do not expose the meter to direct sunlight, heat, or excessive
humidity for an extended period of time.
•
Do not let dirt, dust, blood, or water enter into the meter’s
test strip port.
•
Do not drop the meter or submit it to strong shock.
•
Do not try to fix or alter the meter in any way.
•
Avoid getting any liquid or moisture in the test strip vial. This
can affect the test strips and cause inaccurate test results.
•
Do not apply samples other than capillary whole blood or
control solution to the test strip.
•
Strong electromagnetic radiation may interfere with the
proper operation of this device. Keep the device away from
sources of strong electromagnetic radiation, especially when
measuring your blood glucose.
•
Store all the meter components in the carrying case to
prevent loss and help keep the meter clean.
Disposal of the meter
