You can set the meter to let you know when your blood glucose is
possibly too low. You can also select what blood glucose level you
want this alarm to have (60 to 80 mg/dL / 3.3 to 4.4 mmol/L).
Before you set the hypo alarm, talk to your healthcare profes-
sional to help you decide what blood glucose level is your hypo
level. Your meter is preset to “OFF” for the hypo alarm. If you
want to turn it “On,” follow these steps.
