Testing Your Blood Glucose
You will need:
• Your GlucoSure Link Blood Glucose Meter
• A new GlucoSure Link Blood Glucose Test Strip
• Lancing device with a clean, unused lancet (or safety lancets)
• Clear cap for Alternate Site Testing (AST) on palm and forearm
Before you begin, make sure:
• To set up your meter properly and run a control test. See Setting Up Your New
System and Control Solution Testing for details.
• Wash your hands and the testing site thoroughly with soap and warm water, and
dry well.
• You are testing in an area between the temperature ranges of 50°F~104°F. Your
meter will not test outside of this range and will display thermometer icon. Move the
meter into an area that is between 50°F~104°F, and let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes
before testing again.
• If the meter is being operated by a second person who is providing testing
assistance to you, the meter and lancing device should be cleaned and disinfected
appropriately when testing is conducted by the second person.
