The black notch is on the top of the test strip. This
side must come into contact with the blood so that
the test strip can draw up the blood.
Always hold the meter so the test strip is pointing downwards when you are applying blood to
the test strip. If you hold it so the test strip is pointing upwards or sideways or you put the
meter down on a surface with the test strip still in it, blood can enter the meter and contami-
nate it.
The meter beeps a third time when the test strip has drawn up sufficient blood and the test starts
automatically. The test takes approximately 5 seconds.
i
If the meter does not beep a third time, i.e. if the test does not start, you applied too little blood. You may apply more
blood within 25 seconds (this process is called re-dosing).
