Apply Blood to the Test Strip
Bring the blood drop to the white area at the end of the test strip. The blood is
drawn into the test strip.
IMPORTANT: If the countdown does not start, you may not have
applied enough blood to the test strip. See test strip instructions for
use for re-application instructions. If the countdown still does not
start, remove the used strip and discard it properly. Start a new test
with a new test strip.
Hold the blood drop to the white area until the meter beeps (if sound is on) and
the status bar appears on the display. This indicates the test strip has obtained
enough blood.
The countdown appears on the display as the meter checks the ketone level.
Note: Do not remove the test strip from the meter or disturb the test strip during the
countdown.
