6. BEFORE TESTING

6.1. CONTROL SOLUTION TESTING

Our Control Solution contains a known amount of glucose that reacts with test strips and is
used to ensure your meter and test strips are working together correctly.
Do a control solution test when:
• you first receive the meter,
• at least once a week to routinely check the meter and test strips,
• you begin using a new vial of test strips,
• you suspect the meter or test strips are not working properly,
• your blood glucose test results are not consistent with how you feel, or if you think the
results are not accurate,
• practicing the testing process or you have dropped or think you may have damaged the
meter.
Test strips (c), control solutions (d), lancing device (e) or sterile lancets (f) may not be in-
cluded in the kit (please check the contents on your product box). They can be purchased
separately. Please make sure you have those items needed for a blood glucose test be-
forehand.

6.2. PERFORMING A CONTROL SOLUTION TEST

1. Insert the test strip to turn on the meter
Insert the test strip into the meter. Wait for the meter to display the "
2. Press M to mark this test as a control solution test
With "CTL" displayed, the meter will not store your test result in memory under "CTL". If
you press M again, the "CTL" will disappear and this test is no longer a control solution test.
WARNING:
When doing the control solution test, you have to mark it so that the test result will NOT
be stored in the memory. Failure to do so will mix up the blood glucose test results with the
control solution test results in memory.
