Checking the System

ReliOn™ Premier Classic Meter and Test Strips should
be checked using ReliOn™ Premier Control Solutions,
available in two levels (Level 1 and 2). ReliOn™ Premier
Control Solutions contain known amounts of glucose
and are used to check that the meter and test strips
are working properly.
The test strip vials have ReliOn™ Premier Control
Solution ranges printed on their labels. Compare the
result displayed on the meter to the control solution
range printed on the test strip vial.
Before using a new meter or a new vial of test strips, you should
conduct a control solution test following the procedure on
pages 22–24 with ReliOn™ Premier Control Solutions.
NOTE
• Use ReliOn™ Premier Control Solutions only.
• Check the expiration dates printed on the bottle. When the
control solution bottle is first opened, record the discard
date (date opened plus three (3) months) in the space
provided on the label.
• Make sure the meter, test strips and control solutions are
at room temperature before testing. Control solution tests
must be done at room temperature 68–77 ˚F (20–25 ˚C).
• Before using the control solution, shake the bottle, discard
the first 1 or 2 drops and wipe the tip clean.
• Close the control solution bottle tightly and store at a
temperature between 46–86 ˚F (8–30 ˚C).
