Shake the CareSens Control Solution
vial before each test. Remove the cap
and squeeze the vial to discard the
first drop. Then wipe the tip with a
clean tissue or cloth. After the
symbol appears on the
display, apply the solution to the narrow edge of the test strip until the
meter beeps. Make sure the confirmation window fills completely.

Step 1
Insert a test strip into the meter’s strip port, with
the contact bars facing upwards.
Gently push the test strip into the port until the
meter beeps. Be careful not to break the strip
while pushing it in.
The icon will be displayed on the screen.
Step 2
Control Solution Testing
The meter may switch off, if the blood sample is not applied within
2 minutes of the
icon appearing on the screen. If the meter
turns off, remove the strip, reinsert, and start from step 1.
Note
If all the results you get on testing three times continuously are
within the range printed on the test strip, the meter and test
strips are working properly and you may use them for your blood
glucose test.

Step 3
A test result will appear after the meter counts
down from 5 to 1.
After your control solution result appears on
the display, press for 3 seconds till the
‘check’ icon appears on the display. When the
‘check’ icon is displayed, the result is not stored
in the meter’s memory and is not included in
the 14-day averages.
Step 4
Compare the result displayed on the meter
to the range printed on the test strip vial. The
result should fall within that range.
Used strips should be discarded safely in
disposable containers.
• If the results you get are not within this range, the meter and
test strip may not work properly. Then, stop using the meter
and contact the nearest i-SENS representative.
• The range printed on the test strip vial is for the CareSens
Control Solution only. It does not have any connection to your
blood glucose level.
