Testing a Blood Sample
88
Performing a test
1 Check the battery level.
■ If the battery icon turns red (one bar left),
there may not be enough power left for
another test.
■ If there are no bars left in the battery icon,
you cannot perform any more tests. Power
the meter off using the button.
In both cases, restore power by inserting
new batteries, recharging the battery
pack, or using the power adapter.
2 Check that the date and time are correct.
Correct any wrong entries as described in
Chapter 4, Meter Setup/Setting the date.
If a lockout (Operator or QC Lockout) is dis-
played instead of the Patient Test button, you
must run a liquid quality control test before
you can perform a patient test (refer to
Chapter 6, Control Testing and Quality Con-
trol). When the meter is in lockout status, a
test cannot be performed.
The next steps depend on whether you work
with or without patient lists.
