█ Applying Blood
Place your finger on the tip of the test strip. Ensure that the blood is NOT applied from above.
The measurement chamber of the test strip draws the blood of your finger automatically. Your finger should remain
still until the measuring chamber is completely filled and you hear the “beep” sound.
IMPORTANT
█ Measuring Process
After eight (8) seconds you will hear a second beep sound and your test result will be displayed on the LCD
screen.
The Test result will be stored in meter memory automatically (See Display of Test Results).
NOTE: The meter will display “0.0 mmol/L” when blood β-ketone test result is less than 0.1 mmol/L.
█ Disposing Used Test Strips and Lancets
Use a Strip Ejecting Button located on the right side of the meter to remove the used test strip.
Used test strips should be safely discarded properly according to instructions from your healthcare professional.
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling the meter, lancing device or test strips.
• The sample channel at the end of the test strip should show full. When you hear the beep sound, you have
enough blood in the test strip.
• Do NOT put urine on the test strip.
• Do NOT touch sampling end of the test strip.
• Do NOT smear the blood with sampling end of the test strip.
• Do NOT drop the blood directly on the sampling end of the test strip.
• Do NOT add or apply a second drop of blood. This may cause a false result.
• Do NOT hold or shake the meter while it is testing.
