Testing Blood Glucose
Auto-coding (only when Opening a New Test Strip Container)
 |
 |
 |
Compare the code number on the code chip with the corresponding code number on the label of the test strip container. |
Leave meter turned off. Gently slide the code chip straight into the slot on the side of the meter. |
After inserting a test strip, the meter turns on automatically. Compare code number on display with a code number on test strip container. |
Visual Double Check of Test Results
 |
 |
Before the blood glucose test: Compare the color of the test strip with the top colored dot on the test strip container. The colors must match. |
After the blood glucose test: Compare the color of the test strip with the colored dot on the test strip container that comes closest to your test result. |
