Running a Blood Sugar Test
Chapter 3: Testing Your Blood Sugar
Before running your first test, make sure you set up your meter properly and run a control test.
See Chapters 1 and 2 for details.
1. Wash and dry your hands.
2. Take one test strip from the test strip vial. Close the test
strip vial cap tightly.
3. Insert the end of the test strip with the silver-colored
bars into the meter, with the yellow window facing up.
The meter turns on automatically.
4. Make sure the code on the meter matches the code on the
test strip vial.
5. When you see the flashing blood drop, hold the lancet
device against the side of your fingertip and press the
release button.
