You can check whether the meter delivers correct
results. To perform this control test, a glucose control
solution is applied to the test area instead of blood. At
the end of the test, the meter automatically checks
whether the result obtained with glucose control solu-
tion is correct and informs you of the result.
Always perform a control test using Accu-Chek Mobile
control solutions:
after you have inserted a new test cassette,

after you have changed the batteries,

after you have cleaned the cassette and the inside of

the meter,
if you are in doubt about a result.

Please ask Accu-Chek Customer Care where you can
obtain the control solutions.
Different control solutions are sold in different coun-
tries. The control solutions have different colored labels
(red, blue or white). At the end of the control test, the
meter asks you to enter the color of the label on the
control solution you have used (see Chapter 7.2). The
meter offers you a choice of all three colors, even if
you only have one or two control solution(s) to choose
from.
Visually impaired people should not carry out a
control test without assistance from a sighted
person.
