NOTE:
• Do not press the punctured site against the test strip or try to smear the blood.
• If you do not apply a blood sample to the test strip within 3 minutes, the meter
will automatically turn off. You must remove and reinsert the test strip to start
a new test.
• The confirmation window should be filled with blood before the meter begins
to count down. NEVER try to add more blood to the test strip after the drop of
blood has moved away. Discard the used test strip and retest with a new
one.
• If you have trouble filling the confirmation window, please contact your health
care professional or our customer care service for assistance.

3. Obtaining a blood sample
Use the pre-set lancing device to puncture
the chosen site. After lancing wipe away
the first drop of blood with a clean cotton
swab. Gently squeeze the punctured
area to obtain another drop of blood. Be
careful NOT to smear the blood sample.
The volume of blood sample must be at
least 0.5 microliter ( μ L) of volume.
( actual size)
4. Apply the sample
Hold the meter with the strip pointing
downward and the absorbent hole of the
test strip touching the blood drop. Blood
will be drawn in to the strip. Once the
confirmation window is completely filled,
meter begins counting down. Do not
remove the strip from the blood drop until
the meter beeps.
