7. Insert the strip
Following the on-screen
instructions and with the
strip's print-side facing
upward, follow the direction of
the arrows and gently but
firmly insert the test strip into
the test strip port.
8. Analyzer prepares
Wait for the analyzer to prepare.
When the analyzer is ready, the Apply
sample now screen will appear.
DO NOT apply the sample until prompted.
9. Apply the sample
When prompted, apply a
single drop of sample so
that it fills the test strip’s
semi-circular white notch.
The analyzer will then
move to the Analyzing
screen.
The sample must not be heated, shaken, stirred or aerated
After the sample is applied, do not bump the analyzer or strip until the final
result is displayed.
Do not tilt the analyzer at extreme angles while running a test. If the
analyzer is tilted in any direction by more than 65° before sample
application, a warning screen will prompt you to hold it level. If the analyzer
is tilted during sample application, an error will occur and the test will abort.
Ensure enough sample is applied to fill the small white semi-circle notch
target area on the strip.
If you spill sample into the analyzer's strip port while applying the sample,
clean the analyzer using the instructions on Page 16.
