Glucode Chip details.
Your new g-Pet Meter is supplied with two Glucode
chips. There is one for cats, and one for dogs.
The Glucode chip is used toensure that your g-Pet Meter
provides you with the most accurate results. Before
performing the blood glucose test, or when starting a
new test strip vial, please check your g-Pet Meter with
the corresponding Glucode chip for your pet type to
ensureproper performance. The g-Pet Meter uses
removable Glucode chips so you are always getting the

(Further instructions for use of the Glucode chips are
provided on page 10).
Note: Always use the correct pet type glucode chip
for cat or dog to ensure your g-Pet meter
gives you the most accurate results.
