Disposing Used Test Strip and Lancet
The device will automatically turn off after the test strip is
removed. To remove the used lancet, remove the lancet from
the lancing device after you have finished testing. Discard
your used strip and lancet properly in a puncture-resistant
container.
Important!
The used lancet and test strip may be biohazards. Please
consult your health-care provider for proper disposal which
complies with your local regulations.
Control Solution Testing
Our Control Solution contains a known amount of glucose
that reacts with test strips and is used to ensure your device
and test strips are working together correctly.
Test strips, control solutions, or sterile lancets may not
be included in the kit (please check the contents on your
product box). They can be purchased separately.
Do a control solution test when:
you suspect the device or test strips are not working
9
properly.
your blood glucose test results are not consistent with
9
how you feel, or if you think the results are not accurate.
you have dropped or think you may have damaged the
9
device.
To perform the control solution test, do the following:
1. Insert the test strip into the test slot of the device. Wait for
the device to display the blood drop " ".
2. Press MAIN to mark this test as a control solution test. With
"QC" displayed, the device will store your test result in the
memory under "QC". If you press MAIN again, the "QC" will
disappear and this test is no longer a control solution test.
Important!
When doing the control solution test, you have to mark it
so that the test result will NOT mix with the blood glucose
TEST RESULTS stored in the memory. Failure to do so will
mix up the blood glucose test results with the control
solution test results in the memory.
3. Apply the control solution. Shake the control solution vial
thoroughly before use. Squeeze out a drop and wipe it off,
then squeeze another drop and place it on the tip of the
vial cap. Hold the device to move the absorbent hole of the
test strip to touch the drop. Once the confirmation window
is filled completely, the device will begin counting down.
