Chapter 2: Testing Your Blood Glucose
Performing a Blood Glucose Test
Before you perform your first blood glucose test, set up the meter correctly.
You need the meter, a test strip, and a lancing device with a lancet loaded.
1. Wash and dry your hands.
2. Prepare your lancing device.
3. Insert the test strip into the meter in
the direction of the arrows. The meter
turns on.
4. Make sure the code number on the
display matches the code number on
the test strip container. If you miss
seeing the code number, remove the
test strip and reinsert it into the meter.
