Blood Glucose Testing
You can use the built-in meter to check your blood glucose, whether you
are wearing a Sensor or not. You can perform a blood glucose test on
your ngertip or approved alternate site. Be sure to read the test strip
instructions for use prior to using the built-in meter.
Step Action

Wash your hands and the test site with warm
soapy water for accurate results. Thoroughly dry
your hands and the test site. To warm the site,
apply a warm dry pad or rub vigorously for a few
seconds.
Note: Avoid areas near bones and areas
with lots of hair. If you get a bruise, consider
selecting another site.
CAUTION: If you think you have low
glucose (hypoglycaemia) or you suer from
hypoglycaemia unawareness, test on your
ngers.
