For sighted persons: Using the meter and cleaning the devices
5
Take a bottle of control solution.
Open it and wipe the tip of the dropper with a clean, dry paper towel in order to remove any dried-on residues.
Apply a drop of control solution to the surface of a clean, easily washa-
ble object made of glass, porcelain or stainless steel (e.g. a plate or
spoon).
i
Use only control solution that has been freshly applied to the sur-
face of the object. The control solution must not be left exposed on
the surface for any length of time. If it is, the control solution may
give results that are too high.
Hold the meter so the test strip is pointing downwards (see illustration).
Always hold the meter so the test strip is pointing downwards when you
apply control solution to the test strip. Continue to hold the meter with
the test strip pointing downwards until you have ejected it.
If you hold it so the test strip is pointing upwards or sideways or you lay
the meter down with the test strip still in it, control solution can enter
the meter and contaminate it.
