ACCUCU-CHEK Aviva BLOOD GLUCOSE METER Owner’s Booklet ®
Dear ACCU-CHEK ® System Owner, Thank you for choosing the ACCU-CHEK ® Aviva system! Congratulations on your decision to take control of your diabetes. We’ve designed your new ACCU-CHEK Aviva system with comfort, convenience, and control in mind – to help make living with diabetes a little easier. This booklet will help you get the most from your ACCU-CHEK Aviva system. To start testing quickly, you can also refer to the First Time Guide. If you have questions, we’re here to help.
The ACCU-CHEK® Aviva System Your new ACCU-CHEK Aviva meter and accessories work together to measure the amount of sugar (glucose) in your blood to help you and your doctor control your diabetes.
Important Information About Your New Meter • Your new meter is designed and approved for testing fresh capillary whole blood samples (for example, blood from your fingertip or forearm). The meter is for outside the body (in vitro) use. It should not be used to diagnose diabetes. • Use only ACCU-CHEK Aviva test strips. Other test strips will give inaccurate results.

Using ACCU-CHEK Aviva Test Strips • Only use ACCU-CHEK Aviva test strips. • Be sure to check the “Use by” date on the test strip container. Do not use the test strips after that date. • Replace the code key and run a control test every time you open a new box of test strips. (See Chapter 2 “Control Testing.”) • Store the test strip container and your meter in a cool dry place, such as a bedroom. • Keep the test strips in their original container. • Store the test strips at 36 to 90ºF. Do not freeze.
Chapter 2: Control Testing Why Run Control Tests Running a control test lets you know that your meter and test strips are working properly to give reliable results.
Running a Control Test You need the meter, a test strip, and control solution Level 1 or Level 2. The control level is printed on the bottle label. Note: Most people just test the Level 1 control. If you wish, you can also test a Level 2 control. A set of Level 1 and Level 2 control solutions is available for purchase. Your meter automatically recognizes the difference between a control solution and blood. The control solution results are not displayed in memory. 1.
OR 2. Make sure the code number on the display matches the code number on the test strip container. If you miss seeing the code number, take the test strip out and reinsert it into the meter. Chapter 2: Control Testing 3. Select the control solution you want to test. You will enter the level later in the test. 15 4. Place the meter on a flat surface, like a table. 5. Remove the control bottle cap and wipe the tip of the bottle with a tissue.
Running a Control Test (continued) | | | | | | | | | | | | 6. Squeeze the bottle until a tiny drop forms at the tip of the bottle. Touch the drop to the tip of the yellow end of the test strip. Do not put control solution on top of the test strip. When you see flash, you have enough control solution in the test strip. Wipe the tip of the bottle with a tissue, then cap the bottle tightly. Chapter 2: Control Testing 7. A result appears on the display, along with a control bottle symbol and a flashing “L.

The control result and “Err” alternate on the display if the result is out of range. Remove the test strip and throw it away. to set the level in the meter.
Understanding Control Test Results The label on your test strip container shows the acceptable ranges for both the Level 1 and the Level 2 control solutions. The result you get should be inside this range. Make sure you compare the result to the correct level of control. Level 1 Level 2 Range (mg/dL) 25–55 255–345 (This is an example. Refer to the ranges on your test strip container.
If your control result is not inside the acceptable range (printed on your test strip container), here are some things you can do to solve the problem: Troubleshooting Checks Action 1. Are the test strips or control solution past the “Use by” date? If either is past the “Use by” date, throw it away. If the control solution was opened more than three months ago, throw it away. 2.
Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar Using the ACCU-CHEK Multiclix Lancet Device Notes: • Testing with blood from places other than your fingertip requires the clear cap. This is explained later in the chapter. • The best depth setting is the lowest number that lets you get enough blood for a test. Try different settings to find the one that’s right for you. For virtually pain-free testing, always use a new lancet for every test.
Inserting a Lancet Drum You must first load the drum into the lancet device to get it ready for use. 1. Remove the cap by pulling it straight off. It is not a twist cap. The easiest way to do this is to place your thumb to the side of the notch as seen in the illustration. Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar 2. Before you insert a drum, be sure that the release button is not yellow. Insert a new drum, blue ring first, until it stops. It clicks into place.
Inserting a Lancet Drum (continued) 3. Slide the cap on until it stops by aligning the notch on the cap with the notch on the device. Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar 4. You are now ready to use the first lancet. The lancet counter on the plunger shows five white bars, meaning you have five new lancets remaining.
Preparing the Lancet Device for Fingertip Testing ▲ ! Use a new lancet for each fingerstick to avoid infection and get a virtually pain-free test. 1. Make sure the blue cap is on the lancet device. Do not use the clear cap to do a fingerstick test. Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar 2. Adjust the depth by turning the Comfort Dial. The depth indicator shows the current depth selection. The higher the number, the deeper the penetration. If you have soft skin, start at a depth of 2.
Preparing the Lancet Device for Fingertip Testing (continued) 3. Press the plunger in as far as it will go, like a pen. 4. The release button turns yellow. Do not press the release button while pressing the plunger. Set the lancet device aside until later in the test.
Running a Blood Sugar Test with Blood from Your Fingertip Before you run your first blood test, set up your meter correctly and run a control test. You need the meter, a test strip, and a lancet device with a drum loaded to run a blood test. | | | | | | | | | | 1. Wash your hands with warm soapy water and dry. 2. Put a test strip into the meter in the direction of the arrow. The meter turns on. 3. Make sure the code number on the display matches the code number on the test strip container.
Running a Blood Sugar Test with Blood from Your Fingertip (continued) Note: The meter turns itself off five seconds after the test strip is removed. Yellow release button 5. Hold the lancet device firmly against the side of your fingertip. Remember that the opening where the lancet comes out is not in the center of the cap. Press the yellow release button. 6. Gently squeeze your finger to assist the flow of blood. This helps you get a blood drop.
Note: Do not twist the plunger when the release button is yellow or when the lancet counter shows no white bars. This may damage the device. 8. Your result appears on the display. If you want to flag your test result for a special event, leave the test strip in the meter. (See “Flagging Test Results.”) Otherwise, throw the used test strip away. 9. For virtually pain-free testing, we recommend that you advance to a new, sterile lancet after each test.
Changing the Lancet Drum When you have used the sixth and last lancet, you should change the drum. 1. Take the blue cap off the lancet device by pulling it straight off. It is not a twist cap. The easiest way to do this is to place your thumb to the side of the notch as seen in the illustration. Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar 2. Hold the drum between your thumb and index finger and pull it straight out of the lancet device.
Note: A used drum cannot be reinserted into the lancet device. In rare instances, if a used drum is dropped on a hard surface the lancets may protrude slightly from the drum. If you drop a drum, always pick it up at the red-striped end. OR 3. Throw the old drum away. Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar 4. Before you insert a drum, be sure that the release button is not yellow. Insert a new drum, blue ring first, until it stops. It clicks into place.
Running a Blood Sugar Test with Blood from Your Palm, Forearm, Upper Arm, Thigh, or Calf (non-fingertip testing) You have the option of testing other places on your body besides the fingertip. You can test the palm, forearm, upper arm, thigh, or calf. While fingertip blood can be tested at any time, there are times when testing from another approved site is not ideal—usually when your blood sugar is rapidly changing. Please read the following section before you try testing from other places.
! ▲ Do not change your treatment because of just one result. NEVER ignore symptoms of high or low blood sugar. If your blood sugar doesn’t match how you feel, do a fingertip test to confirm your result. If the fingertip result still doesn’t match how you feel, call your doctor.
Running a Blood Sugar Test (non-fingertip) (continued) You need the meter, a test strip, a lancet device with a drum loaded, and the clear cap in your kit. 1. Remove the blue cap from the lancet device by pulling it straight off. It is not a twist cap. The easiest way to do this is to place your thumb to the side of the notch as seen in the illustration. Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar 2. Put the clear cap on by lining up the notched sections on the cap and the lancet device.
Note: Once you run a successful test, you may want to find the lowest depth setting that provides enough blood with the least amount of pain. 3. Dial the depth setting to 5 1/2 for forearm, upper arm, thigh, or calf testing. Dial the depth setting to 3 for palm testing. 4. Press the plunger in as far as it will go, like a pen. The release button turns yellow. Set the lancet device aside until later in the test. Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar 33 5.
Running a Blood Sugar Test (non-fingertip) (continued) | | | | | | | | | | 6. Make sure the code number on the display matches the code number on the test strip container. If you miss seeing the code number, remove the test strip and reinsert it into the meter. Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar 7. When the blood drop flashes, obtain a drop from the site.
TIP: Rub the skin prior to lancing to increase blood flow. Yellow release button 8. Press the opening of the clear cap firmly against a fleshy area on the non-fingertip site. Press the lancet device up and down in a slow pumping motion to assist the flow of blood. Remember that the opening where the lancet comes out is not in the center of the cap. Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar 9. Keep steady pressure on the area and press the yellow release button.
Running a Blood Sugar Test (non-fingertip) (continued) 10. Touch the drop to the tip of the yellow window of the test strip. Do not put blood on top of the test strip. Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar 11. When you see flash, you have enough blood in the test strip. If you applied blood but do not see the flashing you may reapply more blood within five seconds.
12. Your result appears on the display. If you want to flag your test result for a special event, leave the test strip in the meter. (See “Flagging Test Results.”) Otherwise, throw the used test strip away. Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar 13. For virtually pain-free testing, we recommend that you advance to a new, sterile lancet after each test. To load the next lancet, twist the plunger one-quarter turn forward (until it stops), then twist it back all the way.
Running a Blood Sugar Test (non-fingertip) (continued) Having trouble testing from sites other than your fingertip? If you experience difficulty obtaining a sufficient drop of blood while testing on a site other than your fingertip, please contact our ACCU-CHEK Customer Care Service Center at 1-800-858-8072 for assistance. We will guide you through the testing procedure step by step. If you continue to have difficulty we can also offer you, free of charge, our ACCU-CHEK Softclix lancet device.
Flagging Test Results You might want to flag an event such as exercise or a non-fingertip result. If you wish, you can “flag” your test result with an asterisk ( ) to mark a special result. When you review your results in memory, this “flag” can help you remember what was different about the result. Here is how to flag a result: flag 1. Run a test. 2. With the test result on the display, and the test strip STILL IN THE METER, press or once. The appears just below the date. 3.
Understanding Your Test Results The ACCU-CHEK Aviva test strips are whole-blood referenced and have been calibrated to deliver plasma-like values for easier comparison to lab results. The normal fasting blood glucose range for an adult without diabetes is 74 – 106 mg/dL.1 Two hours after meals, the blood glucose range for an adult without diabetes is less than 140 mg/dL.2 For people with diabetes: please consult your doctor for the blood glucose range appropriate for you.
Symptoms of High or Low Blood Sugar Being aware of the symptoms of high or low blood sugar can help you understand your test results and decide what to do if they seem unusual. Here are the most common symptoms: High blood sugar (hyperglycemia): fatigue, increased appetite or thirst, frequent urination, blurred vision, headache, general aching, or vomiting. Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia): sweating, trembling, blurred vision, rapid heartbeat, tingling, or numbness around mouth or fingertips.
Comparing Your Meter Result to a Lab Result A common question is how the blood sugar results on your meter compare to the lab results. Your blood sugar can change quickly, especially after eating, taking medication, or exercising. If you test yourself in the morning, then go to the doctor’s office for a blood sugar test, your results will probably not match, even if you are fasting. This is typically not a problem with your meter, it just means that time has elapsed and your blood sugar has changed.
Chapter 4: Meter Memory, Setup, and Downloading Memory Storing Test Results Your meter automatically stores up to 500 test results with the time and date of the test. You can review them at any time. Test results are stored from the newest to the oldest, so it is very important to have the correct time and date set in the meter. Notes: • Do not change your therapy based on one individual result in memory. • The memory is not lost when you replace the battery.
Viewing Test Results 1. Press either or to enter memory. Your most recent result appears. 2. Press to view previous results in order. 3. OR, press to look at your 7, 14, or 30 day averages, in that order. You see an “n” with a number in the upper left corner of the display. This tells you how many test results are included in that average.
