Before you begin:
• Use only OneTouch
®
Ultra
®
Control Solution.
• Check the expiration date on the control solution vial. Record
the discard date (date opened plus six months) on the vial
label. Do Not use after expiration or discard date, whichever
comes first.
• Control solution, meter, and test strips should be at room
temperature (between 68° and
77
°F/between 20° and 25°C)
before testing with control solution (see Specifications section
on page 125 for blood testing temperature ranges).
• Shake the vial, discard the first drop of control solution, and
wipe off the dispenser tip to ensure a good sample and an
accurate result.
• Store the control solution tightly closed at temperatures
below 86°F (30°C). Do Not refrigerate.
WARNING:
• Do Not swallow control solution; it is not for human
consumption.
• Do Not apply control solution to the skin or eyes as it may
cause irritation.
