Checking the meter
You can check whether the meter is delivering correct test results. To perform this control test, a glucose
control solution is applied to the test area instead of blood. At the end of the test, the meter automatically
checks whether the control result obtained with control solution is correct and informs you of the control
result.
Always perform a control test using Accu-Chek Mobile control solutions:
• After you have cleaned the inside of the tip of the cassette and tip cover, as well as the measuring
optics and the front opening of the meter.
• If you are in doubt about a test result.
Contact the customer support and service centre (see page 134) to find out where you can obtain the
control solutions.
Dierent control solutions are sold in dierent countries. The control solutions have labels with dierent
text colours (Control1 = blue 1 or Control2 = red 2).
At the end of the control test, you must tell the meter which text colour of the control solution you have
used (see page97). The meter oers you a choice of two colours.
